Collin Morikawa Becoming Popular Play At St. Jude
1 year agoDespite a missed cut in his most recent start at The Open in England, Collin Morikawa is gaining steam in the betting and DFS markets heading into his fourth career appearance at the FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis. The 26-year-old California-native with two major championships to his name was trending positively a few weeks ago, logging a T-14 finish at the U.S. Open and coming up just short in a three-man playoff at the Rocket Mortgage classic. A combined 5.2 strokes gained putting in those two events was a green flag for Morikawa-backers, as the flat stick is usually the last piece of the puzzle for him to catapult to the top of leaderboards. Unfortunately the Cal-Berkeley alum lost just over four strokes to the field at Royal Liverpool to miss the cut on the number. Regardless, it's well-known that Morikawa is one of the best ball-strikers on tour, and when there are signs of life in his putter, it's usually time to hop on board the train. After a T-5 finish at TPC Southwind in 2022 to go along with two top-26 finishes in the two seasons prior, it may be time for Morikawa to find some hardware in Tennessee at an affordable $9,000 price tag on DraftKings.
