PGA TOUR: China’s Yuan Enjoys Top-5 Finish In Valspar Championship, Peter Malnati Wins Title
Valspar Championship: China’s Carl Yuan came up with his best performance on the PGA TOUR after finishing tied fifth for his second top-10 finish of the season at the Valspar Championship on Sunday. Yuan, who turned 27 on Thursday, chipped in twice en route to a closing 3-under 68 at Innisbrook Resort’s Copperhead Course to finish on 8-under 276, four shots behind winner Peter Malnati who claimed an emotional two-stroke victory over Cameron Young following a 67.
Korea’s K.H. Lee, who had started the event on a strong note, was a further stroke back in a share of ninth after a 69 for his second top-10 finish in three starts but the two-time PGA TOUR winner was kicking himself after making two bogeys over his closing three holes.
“It was challenging and definitely played tough. I really hung in there, just trying to commit shot by shot. Don't really let one bad shot or one poor result took my mind off it, just keep trusting it, committing it. Fortunately, enough, I had a couple of chip-ins and that was very exciting,” Yuan, who is projected to rise to 74th place on the FedExCup points list, was quoted as saying by the PGA TOUR as saying.
