Boo Weekley is finding his stride at the right time, one round away from his first PGA TOUR Champions victory. The veteran golfer has put himself in a prime position to secure a career milestone this weekend.

Heading into the final round of the Insperity Invitational, Weekley holds the solo lead. Speaking to the press after Round 2 on Saturday, Weekley commented on a flawless second round that kept him at the top of the leaderboard.

"Overall, I'm happy where everything's going right now," Weekley shared

The 52-year-old showcased remarkable consistency by delivering his second consecutive bogey-free day. He carded a 6-under 66, which included 6 birdies during the second round to solidify his narrow advantage.

Weekley attributed his success to staying out of trouble off the tee. Even when he missed a fairway, he managed to find favorable lies that kept his momentum alive.

"It's been pretty solid," Weekley noted about his play. "When I did miss a fairway or something, I actually drew a good lie... that's a good place to be."

After entering the Champions circuit in 2023, the American golfer has had his fair share of troubles. But his 2026 season began better, with two top-10 finishes so far.

He finished ninth on the 2026 James Hardie Pro Football Hall of Fame Invitational in March and T2 at the Chubb Classic in February.

Boo Weekley overcoming turbulence to contend in Texas 

Weekley shot back-to-back rounds of 66, thus moving to a score of 12-under-par, maintaining a one-shot lead going into Sunday. This kind of consistency has allowed him to distinguish himself from the field as he seeks to claim his first breakthrough.

If successful, he will better his record in the seniors category, where he finished tied for second place in the Chubb Classic event.

The result came during a season marked by inconsistency

After a strong start to the year, his form soon wavered, leading to three finishes outside the top 30 and a disappointing missed weekend cut at the Senior PGA Championship.

Fortunately for Weekley, he seems to have found his rhythm again, coming into this week after finishing tied for 15th at the Regions Tradition. Now all that remains is for him to maintain this rhythm for one more day.

Do you think Weekley can maintain his performance and clinch a win at the Insperity Invitational? Let us know in the comments.
