FOLLOW: iHEART | TUNEIN


Three of four spots available in the 2015 Valspar Championship were decided by day's end in the Monday qualifier at the Pete Dye-designed Southern Hills Plantation Club.

Michael Kinkopf, Jonathan Randolph and Roberto Castro all shot 6-under 66 to qualify after the 18-hole round. However, six players shot 67, leading to a huge playoff for the final spot in the field at Innisbrook Resort.

Russell Surber, Mark Hubbard, Andrew Loupe, Greg Chalmers, Bobby Wyatt and Marc Warren began the playoff, with all but Hubbard and Chalmers eliminated on the first hole. Chalmers and Hubbard will return on Tuesday morning to decide who gets to compete this week.
