PGA Tour: Peter Malnati wins Valspar Championship 2024

The winner of the Valspar Championship 2024 is Peter Malnati. On a thrilling final day, the US American came out on top against Cameron Young and Co. to secure his first victory on the PGA Tour in 3058 days.

PGA Tour: 3058 days after first Tour win – Malnati wins in Florida

It’s been 3058 days since Peter Malnati celebrated his first and so far only victory on the PGA Tour – at the 2015 Sanderson Farms Championship. That has now changed: On a thrilling final day, the US-American prevailed with a strong round of 67 and a two-shot lead over compatriot Cameron Young (-12). There is a surprising reason why Malnati relied on yellow balls: “The reason why I switched is that my 3-year-old son, who is now 4, liked them. It still makes me think of him, and that’s worth a smile or two, which is worth a lot to me out there.”

The yellow balls obviously paid off. Peter Malnati played a consistently strong tournament with 66-71-68-67 and showed nerves of steel on the final day after an early bogey on the fourth. The 36-year-old made a birdie on the sixth hole to return to even par and then really got going on the back nine. Malnati recorded three birdies on the first three holes and completed the final day with a birdie on the 17th. His closest rival Cameron Young even had the chance to get back to 12 under par with a birdie on the last hole, but clearly missed this opportunity with a bogey. Chandler Phillips and Mackenzie Hughes finished in a tie for third place.
