The PGA TOUR’s Valspar Championship was held at the Innisbrook Resort, in Palm Harbor. 

Taylor Moore shot 10 under par 274, with a closing 67, to win on the PGA TOUR for the first time.

While it is too early for a final accounting, Tracy West, tournament director, said in a statement that she is confident that the tournament will generate at least the $1.1 million that will put the event’s all-time funds generated for Tampa Bay charities past the $50 million mark.
