The first round of the 2025 Valspar Championship was an absolute grind as players had to battle inclement weather, heavy winds and the always difficult Copperhead course at Innisbrook Resort. The combination of steady 15-20 mph winds (gusting up to 30 mph) and the small greens at Innisbrook made for a challenging day as evidenced by the leaders sitting at 4-under -- the second-highest first round leading score in tournament history.

Dallas' Jordan Spieth, who started the final round four shots back, shot 1-over on Sunday to finish in a tie for 28th.
