SANDWICH, England – Lucas Glover had plenty of time to reflect on a victory that was more than a decade in the making on the long flight from Silvis, Illinois, to south England.
“I never doubted,” Glover said of his win Sunday at the John Deere Classic. “I knew if I got there enough it would happen. Got there a few times in 2019 and a few times this year and didn’t pee down my leg. Deep down I knew it would come together and I could pull it off.”
It was Glover’s first victory since the 2011 Wells Fargo Championship and was the byproduct of an intense few months working to shore up his game on the greens, particularly his short putting.
