Corey Conners Wins Valero Texas Open
6 years agoCorey Conners became just the fifth player in PGA Tour history to qualify for an event on Monday and capture the title that same weekend. The Canadian provided one of the craziest six-under par rounds you will ever see, making birdie on four of his first five holes of the day before producing bogeys on four straight holes to wrap up his front nine. The back nine presented the same explosion, but this time without the combustibility. Conners caught fire down the stretch, birdieing six of the final nine holes to seize his first career PGA Tour triumph. The conquest in Texas was a life-changing moment for Conners, who earned a two-year exemption on tour and an invite into this week's Masters. The 27-year-old is priced at $6,600 on DraftKings and is projected to be three percent owned.
