Webb Simpson Should Be Very Comfortable At Detroit
3 years agoIn his only appearance at Detroit Golf Club, Webb Simpson finished in eighth place while gaining 1.9 strokes off the tee and 4.6 strokes on approach. Simpson's success in Detroit should not come as a surprise, as the former U.S. Open champion has a clear affinity for Donald Ross courses, with six top-10s at the Ross-designed Sedgefield Country Club, home of the Wyndham Championship. Detroit Golf Club is one of the easiest courses that PGA Tour pros see all season, and the seven-time PGA Tour winner loves himself a birdie fest, ranking seventh in average strokes gained per round in easy scoring conditions. Simpson is a fantastic fit this week and should be in the mix come Sunday afternoon.
