Patrick Cantlay To Defend Title At BMW Championship
1 year agoPatrick Cantlay finished second at last week's FedEx St. Jude Championship and nearly forced a second playoff hole against Lucas Glover. Cantlay returns to the BMW Championship this week as the defending champion and will hope to keep the momentum rolling. In last year's BMW Championship, Cantlay performed exceptionally well, ranking third in strokes gained off-the-tee and sixth in strokes gained on approach. It's also worth noting that over 35% of the approach shots at last year's tournament came from 100-150 yards, and this year, Cantlay ranks in the 88th percentile in greens in regulation and the 89th percentile in strokes gained per shot on approaches from 100-150 yards in the fairway. Considering his recent form, past tournament history, and exceptional approach play, Cantlay is a strong candidate for inclusion in fantasy lineups this week.
