After an unexpected start at The Players Championship last week, Michael Thompson will once again be in action a this week's Valspar Championship.  This is the last stop on the Florida swing.

Michael didn't get into The Players until Friday morning as the last alternate in the field when Tyler McCumber withdrew due to a shoulder injury.  Thursday's first round had been delayed due to heavy rain and McCumber's group was scheduled to tee off just before the horn blew ending the day due to darkness.  Michael ended up finishing tied for 60th but it was an unexpected payday based on the fact that he started the week as the 5th alternate.

Michael will be playing the Valspar Championship with Joel Dahmen and Andrew Landry for the first couple of rounds.  They tee off from the tenth hole for Thursday's first round at 1:03pm EDT (10:03am PDT).
