In 2008 Chappell took top collegiate honours as the NCAA Division I men's indvidual champion, joining the likes of Jack Nicklaus, Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods in winning this coveted title. At the end of that momentous year he was ranked the No.3 amateur player in the world, and received the University of California's Jack Nicklaus Award as their player of the year.
Turning professional in 2008, Chappell became a consistent performer on the PGA Tour from 2011, but had to wait until 2017 before recording his first win, which came at the Texas Valero Open. The win earned him a place on the 2017 Presidents Cup team.
America
Valero
Played as the Valero Texas Open (Apr 20-23). Second-placed Brooks Koepka (USA) finished 1 shot behind 30-year-old Kevin Chappell (USA), who recorded his first PGA Tour win in his 180th start on the Tour. [Oaks course, TPC San Antonio, TX].
The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with four wins out of her last four appearances on the LPGA Tour, a feat last achieved by Lorena Ochoa in 2008. Korda's win at the T-Mobile Match Play brought up her 12th LPGA Tour victory.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda’s three-in-three, when he placed second at the Houston Open. This followed back-to-back wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players. Like Korda, he remains comfortably ahead in the official world golf rankings.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
