LOS ANGELES – Before the year’s final redeye flight, it’s time for a few West Coast revelations. From Maui to Monterey, the PGA Tour’s annual Left Coast swing didn’t disappoint.
Most improved. When the WGC-Match Play Championship packed up and headed east (Austin, Texas) for the warmer confines of spring it left a hole in the West Coast lineup that was filled by the circuit’s annual soiree to Tinsel Town.
With five of the world’s top 10 players and 60 world ranking points going to the Northern Trust Open winner, the Los Angeles stop wasn’t just the best event on the West Coast this year, but the deepest field in golf in 2016.
