Valspar Championship 2018: Corey Conners Leads After Round 1; Tiger Woods in 8th

Corey Conners is alone atop the leaderboard after one round of the 2018 Valspar Championship at Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club in Palm Harbor, Florida.

Conners shot a four-under 67 on Thursday to claim a one-shot lead over Whee Kim, Kelly Kraft and Nick Watney.

GolfChannel.com's Rex Hoggard tweeted how it's been a whirlwind week for Conners:

Conners would've had a slightly bigger lead if he hadn't bogeyed the final hole of the round. His second-shot approach found a bunker, and his next shot overshot the cup and landed in the rough to the left of the green.
