PALM HARBOR, Fla. — Davis Riley made three birdies from tough spots to close out the front nine and then kept right on rolling Saturday until he had a 9-under 62, a tournament scoring record and a two-shot lead in the Valspar Championship.
And just like that, a Masters invitation is in view for Riley, a 25-year-old PGA Tour rookie.
He played before the largest gallery at steamy Innisbrook, most of them there to watch the other Alabama alum in the pairing.
