The Valero Texas Open gave golf fans everything—drama, heart, and a finish for the ages.

Brandon Wu wins, Parker Coody low am at Maridoe

Brandon Wu, ranked 172nd in the world coming into the tournament, pulled off one of the most unbelievable comebacks in recent PGA history. Starting the day four shots back, he surged to the top with a fiery 7-under round, culminating in a 35-foot birdie putt on the 18th that had fans at TPC San Antonio losing their minds.

The ball rolled… teetered on the edge… and dropped.

The crowd ERUPTED. The announcers screamed. Twitter went nuclear.

“I blacked out after it went in,” Wu said in the post-match interview, his voice shaking with emotion. “This win means everything. It proves I belong.”

What makes this story even crazier? Wu didn’t even have a guaranteed spot at Augusta. With the win, he punched his ticket to the Masters, setting the stage for the most unlikely Cinderella story on golf’s biggest weekend.

Amateur of the Year: Brandon Wu

Meanwhile, top contenders like Rickie Fowler and Tony Finau stumbled down the stretch, unable to match Wu’s magic. “He played fearless,” Finau admitted. “Respect.”

Now, all eyes turn to Augusta—but thanks to Brandon Wu, the Valero just became required viewing on the golf calendar.
