  • Ian Woosnam Returning to Defend Title Tournament Field Includes Past Champions & Hall of Famers
    Ian Woosnam Returning to Defend Title Tournament Field Includes Past Champions & Hall of Famers THE WOODLANDS, TX – April 12, 2016 —The Insperity Invitational presented by UnitedHealthcare will be celebrating its 13th anniversary May 2-8 as the 2015 champion Ian Woosnam returns to compete against one of the strongest fields on the PGA TOUR Champions schedule. Woosnam has the opportunity to join Bernhard Langer as the only player in tournament history to successfully defend his title. Langer, who accomplished the feat by winning the 2007 and 2008 Insperity Invitational, will not be competing this year so he can attend his daughter’s college graduation. Joining Woosnam will be seven other past winners of Houston’s PGA TOUR Champions event—Larry Nelson (2004), Mark McNulty (2005), Jay Haas (2006), John Cook (2009), Brad Faxon (2011), Fred Funk (2012) and Esteban Toledo (2013). In addition, five World Golf Hall-of-Fame members are currently in the field: Tom Kite, Mark O’Meara, Curtis Strange, Colin Montgomerie and Sandy Lyle. “The field for this year’s tournament will once again be a fantastic combination of golf’s legends, new PGA TOUR Champions members, Hall of Fame members and the best players in the world age 50 and over,” said Bryan Naugle, Executive Director of the Insperity Invitational. “We are excited with all aspects of the tournament both on and off the golf course. The fans in the Houston area are in for a real treat as this annual tradition continues.” There are eight categories of eligibility in the invitational format, making this event unique on the PGA TOUR Champions schedule.

Austin Woody -10 33-34 – 67 Quick Links • Leaderboard • Third-round starting times Colin Montgomerie, 34-31 – 65 (-14) Montgomerie solidified his solo lead and a position in Saturday’s final group after slinging together three consecutive birdies on the back nine (13,14,15). His second-round score of 65 is a new personal best at Hualalai, beating his R3 66 from 2015 by one stroke. His success in the opening 36-holes is due in part to his accuracy off the tee. The World Golf Hall of Famer leads the field in fairways hit (25/28 -- 89.3%) In 2017’s 36-hole event at Hualalai, Montgomerie carded two rounds in the 60s (68-67 – 135) and finished the tournament -9 at T13.
