US PGA Tour
TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm
Potomac, Maryland, USA
5 - 8 May 2022
Abraham Ancer will be seeking redemption when he tees off at the TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm in the
2022 Wells Fargo Championship.
The Mexico star came close to winning last year's tournament as he finished second - one shot behind champion Rory McIlroy.
Currently ranked 20th in the Official World Golf Rankings, Ancer will be looking to redeem himself by winning this year's event.

Ancer is familiar with TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm having competed in the 2018 Quicken Loans National and he finished fourth as Francesco Molinari won the tournament.
The Quicken Loans National was part of the Open Qualifying Series and his high finish gave him an entry to the 2018 Open Championship.
It was the San Antonio-based golfer's first major championship, where he had rounds of 71 and 78 and missed the cut.
Ancer took part in the recent Mexico Open where he finished 42nd and his best performance in 2022 came at the WGC - Dell Technologies Match Play where he finished fourth.
“I tweaked my back a little bit, so doctor told me to take it easy for a couple weeks,” Ancer said he provided an update on his fitness after last month's Masters Tournament.
“I went to the Masters with really not much practice. I wasn’t going to skip the Masters, so I convinced my doctor to let me go.
“Had two weeks before here to really, really get healthy and get back out there, get stronger. Thankfully, I feel 100 percent physically.”
Rory McIlroy is the most decorated golfer in the history of the Wells Fargo Championship having won the tournament a record three times.
