SAN ANTONIO \u2014 Matt Wallace rose 59 spots Sunday in the Aon Swing 5 rankings with his T-2 finish in the Valero Texas Open.<\/p>\n

Wallace shot weekend rounds of 64-68 to secure second place in the rankings behind David Lipsky and earn a spot in the RBC Heritage in two weeks.<\/p>\n

The move came at an opportune time. Wallace has missed three cuts in six starts this season. His best performance so far is a tie for 40th in two tournaments, the Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches and the Valspar Championship. Wallace will miss the Masters Tournament, but the 96th-ranked player in the world sees reason for hope.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve played better than the results have shown,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m sure there\u2019s a lot of pros that would say that this year, and it happens like that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Matt Wallace makes birdie on No. 17 at Valero<\/p>\n

Wallace gamely climbed a tight leaderboard over two rainy, windy and chilly days at the TPC San Antonio Oaks Course. He nipped at the lead throughout Sunday, making his strongest case with three consecutive birdies at the 15th, 16th and 17th holes.<\/p>\n

He, Michael Kim and Robert MacIntyre finished at 16 under par, a shot behind winner J.J. Spaun.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe patience thing is the worst word in golf, but you need a lot of it,\u201d Wallace said. \u201cI had patience this week and it paid dividends.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rounding out the Aon Swing 5 and also securing their spots at Harbour Town Golf Links despite missing the cut at Valero are Chandler Blanchet, Jordan Smith and Johnny Keefer. <\/p>\n

The top 10 FedExCup points earners through the Masters Tournament also will earn spots in the RBC Heritage via the Aon Next 10, where Jake Knapp currently leads the standings<\/a>. <\/p>\n
