2024 Valspar Championship: Live stream, start time, watch online, TV schedule, channel, golf coverage
Away from the fog of the Masters and last week’s one-off team event at the Zurich Classic, the Valspar Championship represents a bit of a clean start for players as they begin prepping for next month’s PGA Championship. Its new spot on the schedule is a nice reprieve from the overwhelming Florida swing in March, and the field this week reflects a better week on the calendar for a tournament that has, at times, been must-see TV.
The top two players in the world — Dustin Johnson and Justin Thomas — are playing this week and also playing together on Thursday and Friday. Joaquin Niemann. Patrick Reed, Viktor Hovland and back-to-back champion Paul Casey will all be in featured groups over the first two rounds as well. Throw Phil Mickelson — who is making his first start here in nearly two decades — in there as well.
They’ll all be taking on a course that is shorter and tighter than most on the PGA Tour with a closing kick where par-par-par gains strokes on the field over the last three holes. The Valspar has seen some awesome champions over the years — Jordan Spieth, Vijay Singh, Retief Goosen, Luke Donald, Jim Furyk and Casey (twice) have all won here — and hopefully its new week on the slate will provide another top-rate champion as the best field in a decade tees it up this week at Innisbrook.
