Martin Flores is set for his first trip to TPC Sawgrass for THE PLAYERS.
Flores is quietly trending upward, with a T10-MC-T38 in his last three starts. The top 10 at the Valero Texas Open is his only one of the season and the T38 at last week's Wells Fargo Championship stands as his third-best finish of 2013. He enters the week 189th in driving accuracy, which is not a good formula for success on the visually intimidating Pete Dye track. May 6 - 9:31 PM

Martin Flores lit up TPC San Antonio for a final-round 4-under-par 34-34=68, improving to 7-under 281 for the week and picking up his first top 10 of the season.

Flores' previous best finish this season was a T34 at Torrey Pines, so his performance this week was a bit unexpected to say the least. He circled five birdies, without a blemish, in his opening 16 holes before giving back a stroke at the par-4 17th. He came to 18 with a chance to take it one deeper, but was only able to manage a par after finding the creek guarding the green on the par 5 with his second shot.

Martin Flores blistered Trump International Golf Club-Puerto Rico for an eagle and six birdies en route to a bogey-free, 32-32=64 in his second round of the Puerto Rico Open.

Flores opened with an even-par 72 during which he traded one birdie with one bogey. He reaches the midpoint in 8-under 136, four strokes adrift of the 36-hole clubhouse lead. Today's 64 ties his career low on the PGA TOUR (first round, 2012 Greenbrier Classic), but it's his first 64 on a par-72 layout.

Martin Flores carded a 6-under-par 33-32=65 in his opening round of the Waste Management Phoenix Open, finishing five strokes back of the clubhouse lead.

Flores shared 19th place at TPC Scottsdale a year ago, so the track apparently agrees with his game. He hit 15 greens and circled an eagle and five birdies. His only conversion outside 10 feet was a birdie from 15'1" at the 14th hole. Flores' lone hiccup was a bogey-5 at 11 where his par attempt failed to drop from 44 inches.

Martin Flores will make his fourth start of a busy 2013 at the Waste Management Phoenix Open.

After missing the cut in his first two starts, Flores responded with a tie for 34th at the Farmers Insurance Open. That's similar to his history in this event. After missing his first two cuts at TPC Scottsdale, he tied for 19th last season. With those two trends working for him, he could sneak up on some people this week.

The second time on TOUR proved to be the charm for Martin Flores, as he finished 96th on the money list with eight top 25s.

Flores also racked up two top 10s, the first a T8 at the Farmers Insurance Open and the second a sixth at The Greenbrier Classic. The putter was the key, finishing sixth in strokes gained. Expect him to be a factor on tough courses, where he can make up ground on the field with his flat stick.

Martin Flores chased his opening 65 at The McGladrey Classic with a 1-under-par 32-37=69 in his second round to post 6-under 134, two strokes back of the 36-hole clubhouse lead.

It was going so well. After a par at the par-4 10th hole, he had started the tournament in bogey-free 8-under. Among his early three birdies today were conversions from 19'7" and 19'6" at the second and sixth holes, respectively. Then after yanking his drive well left of the fairway at the par-4 11th, he flew his approach over the green where he'd have to take a drop. After getting on in 4, he three-putted for triple bogey from just outside 28 feet. A birdie from just inside 52 feet at 13 helped ease the sting, as did a par save from 12'5" at 15, but that triple sticks out like a sore thumb on his card, especially since it's his only blemish of the tournament.

Martin Flores crafted a bogey-free, 5-under-par 33-32=65 in his opening round of The McGladrey Classic, finishing three strokes adrift of the clubhouse co-leaders.

Flores is coming off a T11 at the Frys.com Open, so the positive juices made the cross-country journey to Seaside. He went 5-for-16 in birdies opportunities today, including three that measured 10 feet or longer. The highlight of the trio dropped in from 13'3" at teh 17th hole.

Flores circled birdies on four of his first seven holes before playing the final 11 in 1-over. He landed 13 GIR and needed 27 putts to tour The Old White TPC. He now turns his attention to TPC Deere Run and the John Deere Classic.

Martin Flores bounced back from a rough start to finish the third round of The Greenbrier Classic at 1-under-par 34-35=69.

Flores was all pars on the front nine, but when he turned he immediately squared bogeys at 10 and 11. He rebounded to circle birdies on the 14th, 15th and 17th holes to head into the weekend at 9-under 201. For the round, he found just nine GIR and needed 27 putts to the tune of a 1.80 average to tour The Old White TPC.

Martin Flores backed up his opening 64 at The Greenbrier Classic with a 2-under-par 34-34=68 to reach the midpoint in 8-under 132, one stroke off Webb Simpson's 36-hole lead.

Flores was one of 12 golfers stranded on Friday night when darkness suspended the second round. He was the only golfer among the leaders and would become the fifth and final to post 132. He hit only 11 greens but limited the damage to one bogey -- his only dropped shot all week. He erased it with three birdies including conversions of 39'6" and 21'2" at the eighth and 16th holes, respectively.

Today he split 11 (of 14) fairways and hit 14 greens. He circled six birdies including conversions of 20'8" and 21'1" at the third and ninth holes, respectively.

He circled six birdies, with five of those coming on the front, and swallowed his lone bogey on the par-4 fifth hole. While he found just half of his 14 fairways and landed 11 GIR, he was on fire with the putter. He needed just 24 putts to the tune of a 1.455 average to navigate TPC Southwind. He now heads to Olympic Club for the U.S. Open.
