Billy Horschel turned in a 4-over-par 74 in the final round of the U.S. Open, finishing the week safely inside the top 10 at 5-over 285.
Entering the day only two back of the lead and dreaming big, Horschel quickly fell down the leaderboard with three bogeys on his first five holes. He rebounded briefly with a birdie at the difficult par-4 sixth, but gave away bogeys at nine, 11 and 13. The only other birdie dropped at the par-4 12th when he nearly holed his approach. This is his seventh top 10 of the season. Jun 16 - 7:02 PM

Billy Horschel suffered his share of setbacks as the 36-hole U.S. Open leader, but pulled it together for a 2-over-par 72 in the third round.

Horschel looked shaky on a birdie-free front nine that included three bogeys, but bounced back with birdies on the 11th and 13th holes. He suffered one more bogey on the par-4 14th, but managed to go bogey-free on the final four holes at Merion. Considering those were among the toughest on the course, coming out of the round two behind the lead at 1-over 211 isn't all that bad. He's well within reach of his first major championship in just his second appearance in a major.

Billy Horschel crafted a 3-under-par 67 in his second round of the U.S. Open to post 1-under 139, good for outright possession of the 36-hole clubhouse lead.

Horschel hit all 18 greens in regulation in today's lap of Merion Golf Club, but he didn't sign for a bogey-free score due to a bogey-4 at the 13th. Naturally, it's easily the shortest one-shotter on the course. Overall, he's split 21 (of 28) fairways, hit 31 GIR and taken a tidy 66 putts. He's limited the damage to four bogeys while picking off five birdies, only one of which on the two par 5s.

Billy Horschel somehow managed a 3-under-par 32-35=67 in the final round of the FedEx St. Jude Classic despite a sub-par performance in ball-striking.

Horschel circled five birdies and swallowed two bogeys on TPC Southwind, but amazingly found just six GIR and five (of 14) fairways. As you would expect, that meant he wrangled some birdies from off the green. Three to be exact. This is just his third start since his win at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, and his 5-under 275 will allow him to better his missed cut at THE PLAYERS and T41 at the Memorial. He'll need to tighten it up if he hopes to contend at Merion later this week in the U.S. Open.

Billy Horschel shot 3-over-par 76-71=147 at THE PLAYERS and will miss the cut.

He's going to have nightmares about the par-4 18th hole. He three-putted from inside 25 feet for double bogey on Thursday, and then knocked two into the water en route to a triple bogey today to miss the cut by three. Otherwise, Horschel submitted a yeoman's effort in his debut at TPC Sawgrass, hitting 25 greens and converting nine birdies. This is his first missed cut in 24 starts. Look for him to try again at next week's HP Byron Nelson Championship, site of his last missed cut.

Billy Horschel blitzed TPC Louisiana for an 8-under-par 32-32=64 and held off D.A. Points to win the Zurich Classic of New Orleans by one stroke.

Horschel began the day two behind 54-hole leader Lucas Glover, and was still one behind when the first of two rain delays stalled his round after six holes. Horschel emerged from that delay to circle birdies on his next six holes, walking off the 12th green at 7-under for his round. He suffered his only blemish at the par-5 15th, failing to secure par when his 9'6" attempt slid by the edge. He responded to knock his approach to 4'9" on the 16th for an eighth birdie, and then stepped on the 18th tee one ahead of D.A. Points. Faced with a 26'8" birdie putt for his first PGA TOUR win with Points in close with a birdie bid of his own, Horschel rolled it in the cup with authority to post 20-under 268. With this victory, he earns berths in THE PLAYERS, WGC-Bridgestone Invitational and the PGA Championship.

Billy Horschel made his way around TPC Louisiana in bogey-free 6-under-par 35-31=66 in the third round of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, reaching the 54-hole mark at 12-under 204.

Horschel was a little slow out of the gates, and that corresponded with a windy stretch early in his round. His only birdie on the front came from 10'2" on the par-5 seventh. Turning his attention to the back, he circled birdies on the par-4 10th, 12th, 15th and 16th holes, then birdied the par-5 18th. He's finished inside the top 10 in each of the last three weeks, and he is in excellent shape to continue that streak.

Billy Horschel carded a 5-under-par 32-35=67 in his opening round of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, finishing three strokes adrift of the clubhouse lead.

Horschel has been a beast lately. While he leads the PGA TOUR with 22 consecutive cuts made, the last three went for top 10s, so it's not like he's back-dooring his paydays. He went 7-for-13 in birdie chances today, four of which disappearing from outside 11 feet. The most notable measured 17'5" at the sixth hole and 17 feet at 16. He also poured in a par save from 10'2" at the 17th hole.

Billy Horschel settled for a 3-over-par 38-36=74 in the final round of the RBC Heritage to end the week at 3-under 281.

Horschel struggled early with bogeys on three of his first eight holes, picking up just one birdie along the way. He looked to have righted the ship with two early birdies on the back nine, but a bogey on the 17th and a three-putt double bogey on 18 took the wind out of his sails. He now continues his quest for his first PGA TOUR win at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans.

Billy Horschel settled for a 3-under-par 34-34=68 in the third round of the RBC Heritage, improving to 6-under 207.

Horschel had it all the way to 8-under with two holes to play, but suffered a sloppy bogey at the par-3 17th then saved bogey after his approach found the salty hazard to the left of the 18th green. He continues to be a major part of the conversation every week, and one has to expect that he will break through and enter the winner's circle soon enough. Had it not been for those two bogeys to end his day, Harbour Town was looking like a realistic spot.

Billy Horschel managed a 1-under-par 36-35=71 in the final round of the Valero Texas Open to tie for third at 11-under 277.

Horschel scored better than he played, routinely missing greens and needing to save himself with lengthy par putts on multiple occasions. Treading water, he was unable to hold off a streaking Martin Laird and a rock-solid Rory McIlroy. He ended his day with three birdies and two bogeys, proving once again that a win should be coming in his very near future.

Billy Horschel energetically turned in a 2-under-par 35-35=70 in the third round of the Valero Texas Open, holding onto the lead by two over Charley Hoffman and Jim Furyk at 10-under 206.

Horschel twirled putters after misses, coached golf balls in mid-flight and did fairway jumps reminiscent of Sergio Garcia to watch shots finish in his third lap around TPC San Antonio. The entertainment all added up to five birdies, three bogeys and 10 pars. His first two birdies dropped from outside 25 feet, his third from 10" on the par-4 ninth and his fourth was a chip-in from off the green on 10. He finally found a somewhat normal birdie from 5'8" on the par-5 14th. After sharing second in Houston last week, he will try and slam the door on his first PGA TOUR win in Sunday's final round.

One day after opening the Valero Texas Open with a 4-under-par 68, Billy Horschel signed for another in his second round to earn outright possession of the 36-hole lead at 8-under 136.

Anyone tracking his game this year likely feels that it's only a matter of time before he breaks through. In today's lap of TPC San Antonio, he hit 14 greens in regulation and circled six birdies, all after opening bogey-par-par-bogey en route to nines of 35 and 33. His longest conversion measured 15'2" at the sixth hole, but he headed to dinner with consecutive 11-footers at 17 and 18 to post a two-stroke margin.

Billy Horschel secured a share of the clubhouse lead at the Valero Texas Open with a 4-under-par 34-34=68.

Horschel remained hot despite hitting only 11 greens in regulation at TPC San Antonio today. He limited the damage to two bogeys while picking off six birdies, including conversions from 13'2" at 18 and 18'8" at 9. He leads the PGA TOUR with 20 consecutive cuts made and appears headed to add another this week.

Billy Horschel spun a 6-under-par 32-34=66, joining Henrik Stenson in the clubhouse lead at 15-under 273.

In his attempt to claim his first PGA TOUR victory, Horschel circled five birdies in his first eight holes and gave back a bogey. After turning, he added birdies from three feet on the par-4 12th and 7'4" on the par-5 18th and held on with pars the rest of the way. With what looks to be a top-three finish already secured, he will now wait and see if he will have a seat at the table in a playoff. We will next see Horschel at the Valero Texas Open.
