It’s the tournament before the Masters. We are talking about the 2022 Valero Texas Open, of course, which starts this Thursday at the TPC San Antonio. Who’s your bet to be the last man standing in this tournament? Check out our preview below of the 2022 Valero Texas Open.
The Northern Irishman returns to action after taking a rest last week. McIlroy is 4 of 4 this season with two top 10s and three top 25s, including a win at THE CJ CUP @ SUMMIT back in October 2021. In his only career start at TPC San Antonio, McIlroy finished runner-up at the Valero Texas Open in 2013.
Spieth is making a return to TPC San Antonio for the first time since his magical win here at the 2021 Valero Texas Open. He is 3 of 6 in his career at the site, which also includes a runner-up finish there at the 2015 edition of the Valero Texas Open. He is 6 of 8 this season, with his best finish being a runner-up at the 2021 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
The 30-year-old Japanese has yet to win this season but he is an amazing 10 of 10, with four top 10s and six top 25s. That’s not to mention the two wins he’s already got, having topped the field at the ZOZO Championship and at the Sony Open in Hawaii.
Not many are turning their attention on Hojgaard, but he’s certainly one who should be on the radars of people hunting for sleepers. After all, he has made the cut in all of his last six worldwide starts.
The 34-year-old Lahiri is only 6 of 13 this season but he is coming off a sensational runner-up campaign at THE PLAYERS Championship in which he fired a 12-under 276. Last year, Lahiri also placed fifth overall with a 10-under 270 at the Valero Texas Open.
