Kyle Stanley turned in a 4-under-par 33-35=68 in the third round of THE PLAYERS, improving to 5-under 211 for the tournament.
Two weeks ago, Stanley scored his first top 10 since his 2012 win at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans and followed it up with another at Quail Hollow last week. While he'll likely enter the final round several strokes outside the top 10 at TPC Sawgrass, it's clear that the form that had golf fans drooling in early 2012 is back. He circled five birdies to just one bogey during today's round. His highlight was a bounce-back birdie at the par-4 15th, when he stuck his approach to 1'10" and converted. Perhaps the biggest surprise is that he wasn't able to draw blood on any of the par 5s. May 11 - 2:06 PM

Kyle Stanley was in the first group off in the final round of the Wells Fargo Championship and posted a 4-under-par 33-35=68.

Stanley found his first top 10 since his 2012 win in last week's trip to New Orleans, and he has continued to ride the wave of momentum at Quail Hollow this week. He got on the board early with two birdies and an eagle in his first seven holes. The eagle came when he stuck an approach from a fairway bunker on the par-5 seventh to 5'2" and converted. He dropped his first shot of three shots at the eighth and traded birdies and bogeys several times on the back nine. He ended his round with a 3'5" birdie on the difficult par-4 18th. It isn't likely that his 5-under 283 will do any better than a top 10, but if the weather worsens who knows where it will end up. He'll dry off and head to TPC Sawgrass for THE PLAYERS.

Kyle Stanley found himself in contention for the first time since his 2012 win at the Waste Management Phoenix Open and responded with a bogey-free final-round 5-under-par 35-32=67 at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans.

Stanley's 17-under 271 was good for third place, and marks the first time he's picked up a top 15 since the aforementioned WMPO win. It's been a long time coming for a guy that was expected to be a contender almost any time he teed it up, and playing his final eight holes at TPC Louisiana in 4-under could be the spark he needs to get his year going. Though he's battled the putter all season, he managed to convert a 17'9" attempt on the par-3 14th when it mattered. He now heads to Quail Hollow with confidence high on a course where his length and ball-striking prowess could be a huge advantage.

Kyle Stanley vaulted into contention at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans with a 7-under-par 32-33=65 in the third round, giving him a share of the clubhouse lead at 12-under 204.

Stanley has been noticeably absent from championship contention since his win at the Waste Management Phoenix Open early in 2012, with a 184th ranking in strokes gained-putting the biggest reason as to why. In today's round, a chip-in eagle from 11 yards on the par-5 second and a 12'6" birdie on the third got him off and running and he hardly looked back. In all, he circled an eagle and six birdies to just one bogey on a day where the winds increased as the afternoon wore on, with three of his red numbers dropping from outside 10 feet. He will try and claim his second win, and first top 15 of the 2013 season in Sunday's final round.

Kyle Stanley makes his return to the Zurich Classic of New Orleans after missing the cut in his only other start in 2011.

Stanley’s last four starts have resulted in three missed cuts and a 79th at the Valero Texas Open, failing to make the 54-hole cut. The flat stick continues to be a major problem, surrendering 1.194 strokes to the field every round in which he competes. It is doubtful that his putter will allow him the firepower to keep pace this week.

Kyle Stanley will play the Arnold Palmer Invitational with a track record for success at Bay Hill that dates back to his junior days.

Stanley claimed the AJGA HP Boys Championship at Bay Hill back in 2005 and competed as an amateur in the API in 2007 and 2009. He's only played the event once as a pro, but tied for 14th in 2011. His most recent PGA TOUR start was his best. A T18 at The Honda Classic could mean that his form and course history are coming together at the perfect time for a surprisingly good finish.

Kyle Stanley opened his title defense of the Waste Management Phoenix Open with a 4-under-par 36-31=67.

When play was suspended for darkness on Friday, Stanley was 2-under through 16 holes. He buried two birdies, including a gem from 25'4" at the fourth hole, to neutralize a pair of bogeys (on holes 5 and 6) before holing an eagle from 23'11" at the par-5 15th. When he returned this morning, he promptly drove to the center of the green at the drivable par-4 17th and then drilled that putt in from 43'2" for another eagle.

It's hard to believe it's been 12 months since Kyle Stanley won the Waste Management Phoenix Open in a dramatic comeback, but it's time for him to defend.

Stanley was the darling of the West Coast swing in 2012, immediately bouncing back from the heartbreak of his playoff loss at the Farmers Insurance Open to win at TPC Scottsdale the very next week. The tap shut off as quickly as it poured on, as he has failed to find a top 10 since that victory. He's currently 54th in ball-striking, which isn't hurting him nearly as bad as ranking 180th in strokes gained-putting.

Kyle Stanley bounced back from heartbreak at the Farmers Insurance Open to nab a spot in the Hyundai Tournament of Champions field by stealing the Waste Management Phoenix Open from Spencer Levin a week later.

In what made for quite the dramatic back-to-back final rounds for the then sophomore on TOUR, Stanley somehow managed to triple bogey the 72nd hole of the Farmers Insurance Open despite not really hitting a poor shot. Losing in a playoff to Brandt Snedeker, he would make the trek to Phoenix and then snatch victory away Levin for what would be his last top 10 of the season. If he can somehow recapture his early-season form of 2012, the Plantation Course’s long but forgiving fairways could prove to be an exciting combination for the budding star.

Kyle Stanley carded a 2-under-par 35-34=69 in his opening round of the CIMB Classic.

This is Stanley's first action since the BMW Championship seven weeks ago. He was a late withdrawal from the JT Shriners due to a back injury. At The MINES Resort & Golf Club today, he traded two birdies with a pair of bogeys to sit even par through 16 holes. Then, at the par-5 17th, after pulling his approach left of the green, he holed out from the collar for eagle. A closing par secured the sub-70 score.

Kyle Stanley is listed in the published field of next week's CIMB Classic.

Stanley alerted his followers on Twitter on Oct. 4 that he'd return to competition at this 48-man, no-cut clambake in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He sat out the JT Shriners due to a back injury. (Note that "Asia Pacific" has been removed from the title of the three-year-old event.)

Kyle Stanley alerted his followers on Twitter today that he withdrew from this week's Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open due to a back injury.

Stanley wrote: "Disappointed to WD. Tweaked my back and can't compete at full strength. #bummed Now for some treatment and getting ready for overseas. See you next year." Look for him to return to competition at the CIMB Asia Pacific Classic on Oct. 25-28. He will not compete in the Fall Series.

Kyle Stanley has withdrawn from this week's Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.

Stanley remains listed in the published field, but he was removed from both the tee times and live scoring pages at PGATOUR.com. As of Monday, he cited on his Twitter page that he was committed to peg it at TPC Summerlin this week, but clearly something occurred to change his plans. Last Thursday, he tweeted that he would also play in Malaysia (CIMB), China (WGC-HSBC Champions) and Australia (Aussie Open) to conclude his year.

Kyle Stanley enters the BMW Championship as this week's bubble boy in the FedExCup standings.

Entering the week in the 30th spot means Stanley needs to have a steady week if he is to earn a spot in the field of the TOUR Championship. While his 307.2 yard avearge off the tee should be an advantage at a soggy Crooked Stick, his form is the major question. He has not managed to crack a top 10 since his win at the Phoenix Open in the season's fifth event.

Kyle Stanley's 2012 season has been a bit of a rollercoaster, but it ends with a 22nd FedExCup regular season ranking and a spot in The Barclays.

After a runner-up at Torrey Pines followed by a win at the Phoenix Open, Stanely has yet to sniff another top 10. After a stretch of missed cuts in the spring and early summer, he bounced back to record six paydays in a row beginning with the Travelers before missing the cut at the PGA Championship. Three top 25s in his last seven starts are a reason for optimism, and Stanley's reputation for the long ball should be a solid fit for Bethpage.
