RIO GRANDE, Puerto Rico (AP) — Michael Bradley is trying to win the PGA Tour’s Puerto Rico Open for the third time in four years.

Last year at windy Trump International Golf Club-Puerto Rico, Bradley took advantage of Troy Matteson’s short par miss on the first hole of a playoff.

Twenty-year-old Japanese star Ryo Ishikawa also is in the field along with Lucas Glover, Argentina’s Angel Cabrera, Venezuela’s Jhonattan Vegas and 2010 U.S. Amateur champion Peter Uihlein.

Glover, the 2009 U.S. Open champion, is making his first start of the season after spraining the medial collateral ligament in his right knee on Dec. 31 during a paddle boarding accident upon arriving in Hawaii for the season-opening Tournament of Champions.
