Based on the poise Andrew Landry had on display throughout the week of the Valero Texas Open, you'd never know that it was his first ever PGA Tour victory.

With the win, Landry was able to make a significant dash in the right direction on the Ryder Cup USA points list, moving all the way up from No. 48 to No. 15.

No one from No. 1-14 in the standings moved their position based on Valero, with many of them sitting out. Patrick Reed still occupies the top spot with Justin Thomas, Dustin Johnson, Jordan Spieth and Bubba Watson rounding out the top 5.
