The South African golfer tied for 15th last week at Mayakoba as Christiaan Bezuidenhout started to make some putts finally. He played much better than expected in Mexico after the disappointment in Bermuda. What can Bezuidenhout do to contend at the Houston Open? Simply, this boils down to stopping the mistakes. His driving ability is just over 280 yards right now which on a longer course can be troubling. Too many of his strong points are present in his game. That is why there is potential if Bezuidenhout can string together some birdies and made putts. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller

Christiaan Bezuidenhout putts extremely well, but will that be enough? The South African golfer with the course setup is way down in the sportsbooks (+9000 via DraftKings). While birdies are not the biggest priority, Bezuidenhout ranks 147th with 3.66 birdies per round. Worse, he ranks 9th in strokes gained to putting (0.656). That illustrates the golfer's inability to set up more birdies chances for himself. The course is pretty long at 7,340 yards (Par 71) which does not help Bezuidenhout. He is among the Top 15 in Par 4's when it comes to scoring average. Then again, the Copperhead course at Innisbrook has seen a couple South Africans win there (Charl Schwartzel and Retief Goosen twice). Bezuidenhout expects to not be a betting or DFS option this week. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller

Christiaan Bezuidenhout has had a primarily mediocre year aside from a T-4 finish at the WM Phoenix Open. In his last two events, the Genesis Invitational and Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches, he finished T-39 and T-42. At the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill this week, players must excel at hitting off the tee and long irons, with the course measuring 7,460 yards. Bezuidenhout ranks 163rd in strokes gained off the tee, 154th in total driving, and 134th in approaches from 175-200 yards. He makes up for this around the green and putting where he's ranked 24th and third in strokes gained. He's still a hazardous play this week, and it's best to avoid him at all costs in DFS.--Jake Walker - RotoBaller

Christiaan Bezuidenhout has played in five events so far in 2025, missing just one cut and finishing in the top 40 in all other events, including a T4 finish at the WM Phoenix Open. He now looks ahead to the Cognizant Classic, an event where he has a decent history, posting results of T25, T42, and a missed cut in 2024. PGA National is one of the most difficult approach tests on tour, and this is an area where Bezuidenhout has struggled this year. He currently ranks 158th in strokes gained on approach, losing 9.291 strokes to the field over his first five events. Success at this course will also likely depend on avoiding around-the-green play, and Bezuidenhout ranks 91st in greens in regulation at 69.01%. He is also in just the 11th percentile in proximity from 150-200 yards, a range that accounts for 48.1% of all approach shots at this course. Given his performances in key stats, fantasy managers may want to avoid Bezuidenhout at his price tag of $7,500 on DraftKings this week.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

Christiaan Bezuidenhout surprised many with his T4 finish at the WM Phoenix Open last week. The 30-year-old South African impressively gained four and a half strokes from tee-to-green and over seven strokes putting, remaining in contention throughout all four rounds. However, that tournament marked the first time he gained strokes on approach since August of 2024, a stretch of golf that included seven other measured starts. Bezuidenhout may not fare as well as last week, as he ranks 66th in approach play, 68th in total driving, 70th in opportunities gained, and 68th in par 5 scoring over the last 36 rounds. These stats are typically a recipe for disaster at Torrey Pines, and fantasy managers should consider tempering their expectations for Bezuidenhout following last week's dominant performance.--Ryan Hickey
