PGA TOUR Highlights | Round 1 | Valspar Championship | 2026
Check out the best shots of the day from Round 1 of the 2026 Valspar Championship, featuring Sungjae Im, Brandt Snedeker, and Jordan Spieth, among others.
The PGA TOUR’s Florida Swing wraps up at the Valspar Championship with a final stop at Innisbrook Resort (Copperhead Course), one of the most popular venues among players on TOUR. A strong field heads to the Tampa area, led by Xander Schauffele following his third-place finish at THE PLAYERS, while defending champion Viktor Hovland returns in search of another title at a course that has recently produced repeat winners. Matt Fitzpatrick arrives in form after a near-miss at THE PLAYERS, while Justin Thomas continues his comeback with momentum following a top-10 finish at TPC Sawgrass and at a venue he has long considered a favorite. Florida native Brooks Koepka is also trending upward, while Rickie Fowler brings consistent early-season form into just his second career start at the event. FedExCup leader Jacob Bridgeman adds further intrigue, while Akshay Bhatia continues to ride momentum following his win at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and another strong showing at THE PLAYERS. Past champions Jordan Spieth and Taylor Moore return to the field, while rising talents such as Blades Brown and Luke Clanton look to build on impressive performances in Puerto Rico. The Copperhead Course (par 71, 7,352 yards) is a demanding, tree-lined layout that rewards precision, with the infamous “Snake Pit” closing stretch once again set to play a decisive role in the tournament’s outcome.

go Sungjae!!
Jacob Bridgeman
Thanks for all the coverage you gave for Thompson and Putnam! Zero…eff those guys! Who cares if they're in the top 4 after day 1. More shots of the guys +6 over par, like Homa and all those other events with Koepka (especially when he's 10+ shots off the lead.) PGA you're are terrible at this stuff!
SUNGJAE ❤
Happy to see Brant plays well again. Lets go Snedeka
I will bet the world.
Dude from Texas never wins again on the pga.
And I am taking about quife.
Good lord were the balls remote control'd?
These guys are good.😂 knocking down flagsticks
Connors will win a major soon
Sung Jae I’m not buying in this time.
Heyy Jordan Sp… ope, never mind
Why golf men always hear talk about Jordan’s Beef. Why beef is so good there? Michael Jordan steakhouse beefs? I’m playing golf and yell at my friends now when I putt “MY BEEF!!”
They’re eating that golf course up! The greens look like rolling nicely!
As a Texan growing up rooting for Jordan Spieth, his attitude and overall demeanor on the course when he is playing poorly is disheartening. Not someone I want my kids looking up to.
why did schenk one-hand that putt? 6:11
It's good to see Danny Saul still on the bag for Corry Conners !
I played at the same course Danny played at for years up here in Sherwood Park Alberta, solid guy!
Where are all the “big name” players right now? Just cruising. I would too…..
I would love to see Sneds have a strong finish….dude has been through so many health issues.
Another PGA dart fest. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
6:56 best drive of the day
Am I crazy or are most of these putts, overall, straight?
Hole on??
Ngl I played golf today and hit some of the best shots of my life a well😅
Magnetic pins?? What a round! Also that one handed putt was insane.
❤❤❤
Bugs bunny working overtime here
they dont even celebrate the hole outs… crazy
임성재
I never notice colors…but the colors of this tournament are unique and wonderful. Is Valspar a paint company..if so…shout out to them.
"There we go", "yes", "ok", "dunked it", "and it's perfect", "ah huh". The commentary is atrocious.
That was crazy
Brandt Snedeker. Congratulations- a big achievement.
Were they playing golf or basketball? Draining 3's.
Soooo nice to see coverage without the usual lowest common denominator yank screaming "get in the hole". The applause from the crowd seemed very authentic and respectful. Well done America keep this up and you might earn yourselves a nice shiny badge! 👍
What’s the advantage to hitting a putt one-handed?
When you know ball
Precision off the tee and control on the greens, early rounds like this set the tone for the entire championship.
With this schedule I understand why tigers hurt every year
Great timing, having an oil company sponsor a PGA event while the world's economy blows up so oil companies can triple their profits. Who's your sponsor next week? Raytheon?
How come no one is talking about how much the putts are bouncing on the greens?
