Day four report

Canadian Adam Hadwin survived a late wobble to claim his first PGA Tour title at the Valspar Championship in Florida.

The 29-year-old, who rose to prominence when he shot a round of 59 at the CareerBuilder Challenge in January, appeared to be cruising to victory until he drove into water at the 16th.

That led to a double bogey and saw him caught by playing partner Patrick Cantlay.

However, Hadwin regrouped to par the 17th and 18th, with Cantlay dropping a shot at the last after finding a bunker with his approach to hand Hadwin the win.

Hadwin carded a closing 71 for a 14 under total, one clear of Cantlay, who recorded a 68 after starting the final round at Innisbrook Resort four behind.

Americans Jim Herman and Dominic Bozzelli tired for third on 12 under, with Open champion Henrik Stenson the leading European on eight under - enough for a share of seventh.

Hadwin dropped a shot at the sixth after missing a five footer, but birdied the eighth from 11 feet, picked up another shot at the long 11th and drained a 53-foot putt on 13 before his wayward tee shot on the 16th almost proved costly.

"I don't know what to say right now," Hadwin told pgatour.com.

"I fully expected Patrick to make that putt (on the last).

"I said yesterday I just wanted to have a chance to win coming up the last and I had it - I'm just glad that one footer wasn't one and a half feet."

Day three report

Adam Hadwin stretched his lead at the top of the leaderboard following the third round of the Valspar Championship in Florida.

The Canadian, who has yet to win on the PGA Tour, was the overnight leader by one shot but extended his advantage to four strokes with a bogey-free round of 67 on Saturday to move on to 14 under par.

American Patrick Cantlay is in second place following five birdies in a round of 66, overtaking countryman and leader after the first round Jim Herman, who replicated his second round of 71 and is on nine under.

Two more Americans made up the top five with Dominic Bozzelli and JJ Henry, who carded a second successive round of 67.

Reigning Race to Dubai champion Henrik Stenson is level with Henry on seven under while South African Charl Schwartzel has made a move up the leaderboard with his round of 67, despite bogeying the sixth and 10th holes.

Day two report

Canada's Adam Hadwin came home in 29 to reach 10-under and lead the Valspar Championship heading into the weekend. 

Hadwin, still seeking his first PGA Tour title, produced five birdies in a row from the turn and added another at the difficult 17th to post the clubhouse lead.

Earlier, another maiden in South Africa's Tyrone van Aswegen had threatened to reach 10-under only for two bogeys in his closing five holes to see him post eight-under with a second-round 65, the best score of the morning wave.

Round one leader Jim Herman parred his opening 11 holes before mixing two birdies with two bogeys from there to remain nine-under, with Dominic Bozzelli and Russell Henley tied for fourth, three off Hadwin's lead.

Henrik Stenson struggled to back up an opening 64 but a birdie at the 15th ensured he would go round in level par, matching Henley's 64-71 to sit in that share of fourth place.

Bryson DeChambeau also made late mistakes to sit five-under and five adrift while of the UK challenge, a fine second round from Ian Poulter saw him comfortably advance to the weekend at three-under, but Luke Donald missed the cut.

Day one report

Jim Herman holds a two-shot lead at the Valspar Championship in Florida after carding an opening-round score of 62.

The 39-year-old, from Cincinnati, made nine birdies and did not drop a shot on day one at Innisbrook to lead fellow American Russell Henley and Sweden's Henrik Stenson, who are tied second after rounds of 64.

Herman was four-under at the turn after sinking birdies at the first, third, fourth and fifth holes and maintained his momentum over the back nine with further birdies at the 10th, 11th, 13th, 14th and 16th.

Henley made eight birdies, but dropped a shot at the 10th hole, while Open champion Stenson carded seven birdies and parred the other holes to stay in touch with early pacesetter Herman.

Irishman Shane Power, who eagled the par-five 14th, lies fifth after finishing day one four shots off the lead after a 66, one behind James Hahn, who made six birdies and failed to drop a shot.

The leaderboard is dominated by Americans, with Tony Finau, Keegan Bradley, Charles Howell III, Webb Simpson all tied in sixth place after rounds of 67.

Bryson DeChambeau is also four-under through 15 but will continue his first round, along with a small number of other players, on Friday morning after darkness brought a premature end to proceedings. 

Scotland's Russell Knox and England's Luke Donald are way down the field after carding a one-under 71 and an even-par 72 respectively.
