The PGA Tour schedule makes its final stop of a four-tournament swing through Florida as golfers head to Copperhead Course for this weeks 2019 Valspar Championship.
It was at this course a year ago that Tiger Woods finally proved he still has what it takes to finish atop the leaderboard, as he came up just one stroke short of winner Paul Casey after failing to birdie the 72nd hole.

The Tiger effect was real at the 2018 Valspar Championship, which was the highest television rated non-major tournament in the past five years. Unfortunately for Tiger fans this year, Woods will not be returning to the greens until next week's WGC-Match Play in Austin, Texas, after finishing tied for 30th at The Players Championship.
Only two of the world's top 10 golfers — Dustin Johnson and Jon Rahm — are in this week's field, as many opt to sit this event out to avoid playing four tournaments in four weeks with the Masters looming around the corner.
Here is everything you need to know about the Valspar Championship, including how to watch live on TV and stream online, as well as the tee times, purse and past winners.

Who else is in the Valspar Championship field?
While some of the biggest stars are taking a week off to rest, seven of the world's top-20 golfers will be teeing off at the Valspar. Jim Furyk returns a week after nearly pulling off an epic comeback at the Players, as Jason Day and Webb Simpson tee off with Rahm for the first two rounds. Henrik Stenson, Patrick Reed, Sergio Garcia, Bubba Watson and defending champion Paul Casey are all in the field as well as tournament favorite Dustin Johnson, the world's No. 1-ranked player.
An interesting player to watch is 17-year-old Akshay Bhatia, the top-ranked junior, playing on a sponsor's exemption. The Valspar will be the first PGA Tour start for the the left-handed high schooler.
