It’s an overused adage these days in professional sports: trust the process. But for Will Zalatoris, it’s what’s kept him on track.
For a few years now, he’s watched his contemporaries earn their PGA Tour cards and collect trophies, while he’s remained winless on the Tour’s developmental circuit, the Korn Ferry Tour, still waiting his turn.
In recent weeks, though, Zalatoris could finally sense a breakthrough.
He nearly got the job done three weeks ago at TPC Sawgrass, but he slipped to a T-6 showing on the final day in the KFT’s return to competition. He then followed with finishes of T-3 and solo fourth, rising to fourth on the tour’s points list heading into this week’s TPC Colorado Championship.
