Kris Ventura A Value Pick At The Cognizant Classic
53 mins agoKris Ventura has been in solid form over his last four events with finishes of T58, T4, T49, and most recently a T25 at the Mexico Open. He now looks to the Cognizant Classic, an event he has played in once before, missing the cut in 2021. PGA National is a demanding course that requires precision on approach, and Ventura ranks 39th in strokes gained on approach, averaging 0.435 strokes gained per round. He is also in the 87th percentile over the past 12 months in greens in regulation from 150-200 yards, a range that accounts for 48.1% of all approach shots at this course. The only area where Ventura has struggled this season is around the greens, so hitting greens in regulation will be key to his success. At a price tag of $6,900 on DraftKings, fantasy managers can confidently consider Ventura as a value play this week.
