Davis Love III Rejuvenated

Inspired by spending a week caddying for his son Dru, don’t be surprised if Davis Love III manages to pull off the nearly-impossible this week at the SAS Championship.

Love, who played five PGA TOUR Champions events this summer after recovering from surgery earlier in the year, sits at 105th on the Charles Schwab Cup standings. But this weekend in North Carolina is Wildcard Weekend, and if Love III posts a top-10 result (he actually needs a two-way T5) then he’ll automatically earn a berth in the Charles Schwab Cup Playoffs, which begin next week.

There are 14 players outside the top-72 in this week’s 78-player field, but only one was inside the ropes in a pressure-cooker situation with their son and saw him get through First Stage of Q-School for the Korn Ferry Tour.
