PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – Billy Horschel made a charge up the leaderboard during the final round of the Honda Classic, one that nearly netted him a spot in the WGC-Mexico Championship. As it turns out, it wouldn’t have mattered.
Horschel began the week ranked No. 75 in the world and likely needed at least a second-place finish to crack the top 50 and earn a spot in next week’s no-cut event. He came to the 72nd hole tied for third, but made bogey after his approach shot found the water.
