Love III vs. inexperienced leaderboard at Greenbrier
Bob Donnan-USA TODAY Sports
A win by Davis Love III on Sunday at The Greenbrier Classic would make the the 1997 PGA champion the oldest PGA Tour winner in history - beating Sam Snead's mark by five months.
The 53-year-old is the oldest player in the field, and certainly doesn't have the distance he once has, but he's got a wealth of experience in the winner's circle compared to those also in contention.
Love has claimed 21 career PGA Tour titles, three more than the remainder of the top-15 combined:
Player | Score | PGA Tour wins |
---|---|---|
Sebastian Munoz | -14 | 0 |
Robert Streb | -12 | 1 |
Jamie Lovemark | -11 | 0 |
Xander Schauffele | -11 | 0 |
Kelly Kraft | -10 | 0 |
Russell Henley | -10 | 3 |
Davis Love III | -10 | 21 |
Tony Finau | -8 | 1 |
Nick Taylor | -8 | 1 |
Danny Lee | -8 | 1 |
J.B. Holmes | -7 | 4 |
Hudson Swafford | -7 | 1 |
Chad Campbell | -6 | 4 |
James Hahn | -6 | 2 |
David Hearn | -6 | 0 |
The only major championship winner close to the soon-to-be Hall of Famer is Webb Simpson who is in a tie for 20th at 4-under par.
