Paul Casey May Be One English Look to for Hope at British Open
3 years agoPaul Casey carries some value at 30 to 1 and has contended in his last two majors with a top-5 and top-10 (PGA Championship and US Open). Casey has played well enough to win but again some missed shots and a faulty putter kept him from winning the PGA in particular. Casey has one of the best approaches to the green in the world and that will suit him well at "The Open". Missing those pot bunkers and worse is ideal. He ranks second in strokes gained in that metric at 0.907 which pushes his overall tee-to-green strokes gained to seventh on the PGA Tour. Again, it all comes down to Sunday. Can Casey make the shots to the green and especially the putts? If he can, Casey could very well win.
