Viktor Hovland is searching for his swing and found himself in contention Friday at the Valspar Championship, where Jacob Bridgeman has a one-shot lead and a host of others were right behind going into the weekend at Innisbrook.

Schauffele began the year at The Sentry in Maui but came nowhere close to contending. He then missed two months due to a rib injury, a setback he suffered while working out in late 2024. “It’s harder than I thought. I didn’t think it was going to be this tricky,” Schauffele said of his comeback.
