Dean Burmester May Be A Risk Worth Taking
4 months agoFor anyone who cares more about stats than gut instinct, Dean Burmester is likely not your man. However, for those who analyze trends and patterns more frequently than you crunch numbers, there may be something here to get excited about. The South African has world-class ball-striking abilities and typically a pretty stellar short game to go along with it. The latter failed him at Pinehurst #2, but a slow start and end on the greens ultimately kept him out of contention for an otherwise good showing at Valhalla. His short list of starts in this part of the world is commendable, considering the adjustment it takes to get acclimated to this style of golf (T10 at the 2022 Scottish Open and T11 at the 2022 Open Championship).
At $8,700 on FanDuel, those on the riskier side of things could have some use for him in their lineups.
