The Valspar Championship
The Valspar Championship

The Valspar Championship is the PGA Tour’s Tampa-area event on the schedule, with the host course proving one of the most challenging on Tour. The event is part of the Florida Swing, which runs through the Sunshine State in March.

The Valspar Championship became a PGA Tour event in 2000, known then as the Tampa Bay Classic. It originally was a late summer or early fall event, moving to March in 2007.

The event took on added prestige over time, with the host course proving one many players like because it asks simple questions that pros like.

In recent memory, the tournament has been moved back to March after a year in May and several months in the fall.

Three players share the record for the most Valspar wins with two each: KJ Choi, Retief Goosen and Paul Casey. No Spanish player has won the Valspar Championship to date.

Valspar Championship format

The Valspar Championship is played over four days, and there is a cut for the qualifying field.

The field of 144 is reduced to the top 65 players and ties for the final two rounds of the event. At the end of the 72-hole event, the lowest score wins.
