Leaderboard Central

Welcome to the first-ever Monday Q article (although this isn't an article). Every Monday morning, I will post all of the hard-to-find, somewhat obscure, and really obscure leaderboards from pro golf, along with the results from the previous event. The leaderboards for these tours can be hard to find and even harder to keep track of. It will be published each Monday morning. Thank you all for your support, now, off we go!

Valero Texas Open Leaderboard - PGA Tour

Although the Valero Texas Open field tends to be pretty weak, with the Masters the following week, the Mon week, the Monday Q still has many recognizable names. Aaron Baddeley, Wesley Bryan, and Bo Van Pelt are just a few names that will vie for the four available spots. In 2019, Corey Conners survived a six-for-one playoff for the final spot at this Monday Q  and, that week, became the fourth Monday qualifier in Tour history to win the same week.
