0:08 | Bowski Jim Gallagher Jr with you for

0:11 | this golf Central update valbar

0:13 | championship in the books jam-pack

0:16 | leaderboard to start today let’s see how

0:18 | this one unfolded we pick up Peter

0:20 | malady nine under through 10 one back of

0:22 | the leader until he hit this shot at the

0:25 | 11 hit it

0:27 | close yeah drove it way right wedged it

0:29 | out to there and then a beautiful shot

0:31 | there after birdie and 10 he would make

0:32 | birdie get the 10 under tied at the top

0:35 | with McKenzie used but others in the mix

0:37 | as well like Cameron young his second at

0:39 | 12 you’re wondering is this this his

0:42 | week and a beautiful shot in here at the

0:44 | Par Four that leads to birdie gets to 10

0:47 | under tied at the top with malady and us

0:49 | it how about this putt for Peter at 12

0:51 | for birdie no reason to look how about

0:53 | the

0:56 | reaction it’s like he had a send

0:59 | something special might happen 11 under

1:01 | one shot lead over Cameron young as we

1:03 | pick him up at 14 his third on the par

1:05 | five oh is this special has worked hard

1:08 | on this part of the game that takes some

1:10 | serious touch right there no nerves in

1:12 | that one leads to birdie 11 under tied

1:15 | at the top with malady speaking of Peter

1:17 | in the Fairway off the te at 16 this is

1:21 | second yeah I hit a gutsy T shot to here

1:23 | but then he just kind of gets that over

1:25 | rotation and he pull hooks it and that

1:26 | means it’s going to go long and get down

1:28 | into a nasty Li but he caught a break

1:32 | because of those sprinkler heads and boy

1:34 | he took advantage of the rules in his

1:37 | favor yeah Stan tools right there he

1:39 | gets the putt this one burko that’s a

1:41 | huge difference than having to chip it

1:43 | out of that nasty lie gives this a run

1:45 | maybe a little bit more aggressive than

1:47 | he would have liked but he’ll save that

1:49 | for par yeah he would make his four

1:50 | state at 11 under tied with young for

1:53 | the lead then how about this t- shot at

1:55 | the par 31 17th one of the best we saw

1:57 | all day

1:58 | long yeah kind of holds that up there

2:01 | trying to hit a little bit of a cut up

2:02 | against that wind that front hole

2:04 | location and what a good time to hit a

2:06 | beautiful iron shot in about 6

2:09 | feet for birdie in the outright lead if

2:12 | he makes it gets the 12 under

2:15 | par mhm is that any good yeah really

2:18 | really good now a little bit of pressure

2:20 | on young whether he knows or doesn’t

2:22 | where he stands could not hit this t-

2:25 | shot at the last toughest Fairway to hit

2:28 | all week long trying to hit a little bit

2:29 | of a cut the wind’s blowing right to

2:31 | left he pulls it it gets carried up into

2:33 | the wind and that’s deep into the pine

2:36 | straw but a bit of an opening and he

2:39 | takes advantage at least as much as he

2:41 | could bite off here yeah he tries to

2:44 | Loft it back up there un fortunately he

2:46 | gets it up on the green about 35 40 ft

2:48 | so not bad from where he had it not the

2:51 | birdie putt you want to have to try to

2:53 | tie the man leading but at least you got

2:55 | a

2:56 | look this is such a slow putt he left a

2:59 | long putt for B 30 of 13 about four 5 ft

3:01 | short but made that but this is a good

3:03 | 10 ft short and he would miss that one

3:06 | as well a three- putt bogey in at 10

3:09 | under malady a two- shot lead and it was

3:11 | all sealed after this at the Fairway

3:14 | bunker yeah came out of there clean

3:16 | that’s a tough shot you always try to

3:18 | feel like you try to lift it up to that

3:20 | elevated green but he doesn’t and it

3:21 | lifts up his spirits beautiful shot now

3:24 | you know the tapping to make it official

3:26 | aart at the last for the 36-year-old

6:14 | good well congratulations Peter soak up

6:16 | this win you’re now a two-time winner on

6:18 | the PGA tour thank you so

6:21 | much an emotional moment there after

6:25 | Peter malady gets back into the Winter

6:27 | Circle and Jim you wouldn’t think this

6:29 | would have been the week in seven

6:30 | previous starts heading into 2024 six

6:34 | six miscuts a tie for 60th in 2019 there

6:38 | was no Trend or indication that this

6:40 | course in this tournament would fit

6:42 | Peter malady but when you see the

6:44 | emotions the raw feelings he shared with

6:47 | Kira k Dixon considering that it was

6:50 | nearly nine years since he won on the

6:52 | last PGA Tour what is your reaction

6:55 | because you’ve been in that spot you

6:56 | were on the tour winning multiple times

6:59 | and know what it really means to get it

7:01 | done uh it’s for him probably you know

7:04 | that nyear stretch or nearly ninee

7:06 | stretch like he said that you wonder if

7:08 | you’re ever going to win uh but it’s

7:10 | validation a lot of guys win one

7:12 | tournament out there and that’s an

7:13 | incredible accomplishment but when you

7:15 | can win the second tournament and Etc on

7:18 | down there that kind of validates to

7:19 | yourself that hey the first one not that

7:22 | it was a fluke but the first one but the

7:24 | second one’s even sweeter and it shows

7:25 | you how tough it is to win out there

7:26 | when you go that far uh but to be there

7:28 | with his family because he won the first

7:30 | one without his uh not having kids and

7:32 | now to be with his kids I don’t know if

7:33 | his kids will remember that they may be

7:35 | too young but it’s a special time for

7:37 | him to enjoy with his family uh and you

7:39 | could tell what it meant to him all the

7:41 | hard work the ups and downs and this

7:43 | game will beat you up you lose more than

7:45 | you win and I think that’s the difficult

7:47 | time it’s how you react on those down

7:49 | times that uh the guys that get up and

7:52 | keep fighting there’s a lot of people

7:53 | that might have given up and he never

7:55 | did and and good for him he played you

7:57 | know the best at the end he hang hung in

7:59 | there it was a tough week the golf

8:01 | course is very hard the greens were a

8:03 | little more receptive this year uh if

8:05 | they had been firm it had been even

8:06 | tougher but in the long run when you

8:08 | look at the cut uh there were 7 s 77

8:11 | guys made the cut they were within six

8:13 | shots of the lead anybody could have won

8:15 | the golf tournament going into the

8:17 | weekend and even going into the last day

8:19 | there were 11 guys uh right there within

8:21 | four shots so uh he finished it up he

8:23 | gutted it out he hit some great shots

8:25 | down the line the t- shot at 16 was

8:27 | about as impressive if youve seen the

8:29 | shot at 17 and of course 18 uh it’s just

8:32 | amazing to win on the PJ tour but to get

8:34 | that second win I think it validates for

8:37 | him uh all the hard work and you wonder

8:39 | when you’re going through it is it worth

8:40 | it I’m going to say Peter’s going to say

8:42 | yes Peter malady played the back nine

8:44 | and 10 under par all week long he turned

8:47 | off the outside noise gained some

8:50 | perspective and now is very appreciative

8:52 | of becoming a PGA Tour winner once

8:58 | again
