As Davis Thompson caught fire Saturday afternoon and took the lead at the John Deere Classic by two heading into the final round, one big responsibility came into view.
He needed to uphold the tournament’s “Champion’s House” for a third straight year.
“It’s been fun staying with those guys this week,” Tompson said. “Hopefully maybe it [will be] three years in a row. That would be pretty cool. Seems like everybody is going to want to be staying in that house next year.”
The second-year pro is one of six players in the field staying in the same house this week. The same house has been home to the John Deere Classic’s champion the last two years with Sepp Straka and J.T. Poston.
Straka has his family with him this week so Thompson is actually staying in the same room he did a year ago when he earned his second PGA Tour title.
He’s joined by Poston, Greyson Sigg, Patton Kizzire, Denny McCarthy and Ben Kohles, basically the same group that originally booked the house two years ago, with Thompson subbing for Brendon Todd.
Last year the group played baseball and frisbee while back at the house together and Thompson said the vibes are pretty much the same this year.
“It’s pretty laid back,” Thompson said. “Been going, eating dinner every night and hanging out, watching TV. Been really laid back and all the guys in the house are great.”
If staying at the “Champions House” keeps resulting in wins, more and more are going to try and book their stay their each year.
With that, below you can check out the complete payout breakdown for this week’s John Deere Classic at TPC Deere Run. The total purse is $8 million.
