J.B. Holmes Continues Quality Golf With T13 in Malaysia
6 years agoFresh off a ninth-place finish at the Safeway Open, J.B. Holmes kept the train rolling by providing a share of 13th place at the CIMB Classic. The big-hitting American was superb throughout his four days at TPC Kuala Lumpur, shooting rounds of 67, 67, 67 and 69. Holmes' 27 birdies placed him third compared to the field, but his seven bogeys and one double bogey prevented him from a better finish. Despite his quality run recently, the American is priced at just $7,500 on DraftKings for the CJ Cup this week. Holmes played the event last season, losing 9.36 strokes total to the field en route to a 67th place finish. However, it is tough to place much emphasis on the four-time PGA Tour winners struggles last season in South Korea. The weather negatively affected the course for all players, and better conditions could turn this event into a birdie shootout, which would play right into Holmes' gameplan.
