Published: Apr 9, 2026

The final putt dropped, the crowd erupted, and history was made at the 2026 Valspar Championship. Matthew Fitzpatrick claimed victory at the Copperhead Course at Innisbrook Resort, and Les Olson Jewelers was honored to celebrate this incredible achievement as the tournament's Official Jeweler.
Palm Harbor's Premier Jeweler Meets PGA Tour Excellence
For over 45 years, Les Olson Jewelers has been Palm Harbor's trusted family jeweler, and sponsoring the Valspar Championship—held right in our own backyard—was a natural fit. Just as PGA Tour professionals pursue excellence on the golf course, we pursue it in our craft: creating exceptional custom jewelry that celebrates life's most meaningful moments.
As Official Jeweler of the 2026 Valspar Championship, we had the privilege of designing and crafting exclusive commemorative pendants that honor the pinnacle of professional golf.
The Winner's Pendant: Where Craftsmanship Meets Championship
Master Jeweler and award-winning jeweler Bob Shinsky designed and created a stunning custom pendant specifically for the Valspar Championship winner—a wearable replica of the iconic Valspar trophy itself. This miniature masterpiece reflects both the prestige of PGA Tour victory and the sophistication of fine jewelry design.
The Matthew Fitzpatrick Championship Pendant features:
14kt Yellow Gold – Timeless, luxurious, and befitting a champion
Half Carat of Premium Diamonds – Brilliant-cut stones that capture light and symbolize excellence
AAA Akoya Pearl – The finest grade of cultured pearls, representing elegance and achievement
Trophy Replica Design – A meticulously crafted miniature version of the Valspar Championship trophy
Custom Design – Exclusive to the Valspar Championship, designed and crafted by Bob Shinsky
Matthew Fitzpatrick received his championship pendant following his victory, along with an identical pendant for his caddy—because great achievements are never accomplished alone. These pendants, meticulously crafted by Bob Shinsky as wearable replicas of the tournament trophy, serve as lasting symbols of their success at one of the PGA Tour's most competitive tournaments.
