George Coetzee has withdrawn from this week's Valero Texas Open.
Coetzee has played in each of the last four weeks on the PGA TOUR, so it makes sense that he'd choose to sit out in advance of next week's Masters. He capped off his run with a share of last place (T70) at the Shell Houston Open. Apr 1 - 4:59 PM

George Coetzee put together a tidy 3-under-par 34-34=68 in the third round of the Tampa Bay Championship to join Kevin Streelman and Justin Leonard in the lead at 6-under 207.

The South African is making his third start on American soil this season, and navigated the Copperhead Course with four birdies to just one bogey on a tough day for scoring. His bogey came at the start of The Snake Pit, when he failed to get up-and-down from 24 yards out of the left rough. He would bounce back with a birdie from 19'8" on the very next hole, then par the last. Should he win, the non-member would have the opportunity to take up membership on the PGA TOUR.

George Coetzee carded a 3-under-par 36-32=68 in his second round of the Tampa Bay Championship, reaching the midpoint in 3-under 139, two strokes adrift of the 36-hole clubhouse co-leaders.

The South African non-member hit 11 greens in regulation today and had nothing going early, making the turn in 1-over with no birdies. Things would change, however, as he rattled home five birdies coming in (on the front side of Copperhead). He ran the table beginning at the seventh hole where his attempt from 34'11" dropped in. He concluded it with a 14'5" conversion at 9.

George Coetzee will have his hands full against Martin Kaymer in the opening round of the World Golf Championships-Accenture Match Play Championship.

Coetzee fell to Rory McIlroy in his first trip to Dove Mountain last year. Coetzee finds himself in a tough end of the draw in the Player Bracket. Should he top Kaymer, he stands to face Lee Westwood in the second round if the Englishman takes care of business as expected. Despite strong play of late, it’s hard to put too many eggs in his basket given the gauntlet ahead of him.

George Coetzee will make his fourth start of the year in a tournament sanctioned by the PGA TOUR.

Coetzee has yet to find success, missing the cut in the U.S. and British Opens and failing to advance out of the first round of the WGC-Accenture Match Play. The South African is 23rd on the European Tour in stroke average.

George Coetzee has gained entry into next week's World Golf Championships-Accenture Match Play Championship.

The South African was the first alternate when the window shut for eligibility with the most recent Official World Golf Ranking. (He's currently 66th.) With Phil Mickelson already out to spend time with family, No. 65 Ernie Els was added. Coetzee earned his berth when Paul Casey withdrew today. Ryan Moore is now the first alternate.
