2025 Valspar Championship Full Field: 24 of World Top 50 in Florida Swing Finale

The PGA Tour is in Florida for one more for the Valspar Championship, where a number of players will take one more tuneup before the Masters.

Twenty-four of the world’s top 50 are scheduled to compete in Palm Harbor, not bad considering the Valspar falls right after the Arnold Palmer Invitational and Players Championship. Those two massive events draw all the PGA Tour’s best and while some will take this week off, a number will play here and then take off the next two weeks before the season’s first major.

Xander Schauffele, the world No. 3, will play the Valspar as he continues to find form after missing two months due to a rib injury. Fellow top-10 players Justin Thomas and Tommy Fleetwood are also scheduled to play. Also traveling across the state is Jordan Spieth, the 2015 Valspar winner who said he’s getting back into form following wrist surgery.

They’ll all play the the 7,352-yard par-71 Copperhead course at Innisbrook Resort, an underrated layout that’s not Florida-flat and doesn’t lend itself to crazy scoring. Peter Malnati won last year at 12 under, Taylor Moore the year prior to that at 10 under.

The purse is $8.7 million with a first-place prize of $1,566,000.
