Jason Kokrak Needs Putter to Not Hurt Him at Greensboro

Jason Kokrak can shoot 17 or 18 under par but just misses a few too many putts at times. The last three weeks in final rounds have been an exercise in just missing critical birdie opportunities. That cannot happen at the Wyndham Championships where low scores like above are the norm and not the exception. […]

Bubba Watson Needs to Make Birdies at Wyndham Championships

For Bubba Watson, he has to get on the greens and make some birdies. There is no other way around it. In 2021, Watson has been great with his shots off the tee. He ranks fifth in shots gained off the tee at 0.706. After that, it has been an adventure into the average and […]

Brandt Snedeker Could Do Well Again at Greensboro

Throw the Brandy Snedeker result out at the Barracuda Championship. What matters is his top-20 results at The Open and then the 3M Open. At the 3M, Snedeker nearly finished in the top ten. The golfer was driving the ball off the tee better the past few weeks and if he does that this week, […]

Brian Harman One to Watch at Wyndham Championships

Brian Harman is one of those intriguing golfers that can put it together on a given week. His numbers suggest better results but 19th and 36th placed showings do not exactly inspire a ton of confidence. They do not exactly sway one completely away either. He can make enough birdies to stay in tournaments (3.93 […]

Graeme McDowell Almost an Unknown at Greensboro

For a variety of reasons, Graeme McDowell has not played on the PGA Tour in over two months. His last tournament was Memorial Day weekend where he missed the cut at the Charles Schwab. McDowell has just not struck the ball well all season on the tour. There was also that March swing where the […]

Brendan Todd May Not Cut it at Wyndham Championships

Brendan Todd can be a frustrating golfer and lately that could not be more true. He has missed the cut in three straight tournaments and four of the last five. That bodes poorly for this week's Wyndham Championships. Again, this boils down to making birdies and Todd is just having an immense struggle there. It […]

Matthew Wolff May Have Shot at Greensboro

Can Matthew Wolff put four rounds together on a course that he can drive well and make putts? That is the question at the Wyndham Championships this week. Wolff put together a nice final-round 67 at the FedEx WGC. This was a marked improvement over his final rounds the previous two weeks at the Rocket […]

Rickie Fowler Carries Elevated Risk Heading into Wyndham Championship

Rickie Fowler is another one of those golfers that have had a wild summer ride between COVID and some inconsistent play. He has finished outside the top-30 in his last three tournaments entered. What can Fowler do this week at the Wyndham? The Sedgefield course has seen increasing scores through the years and Fowler's putting […]

Hideki Matsuyama Expects to Contend Again at Wyndham

Hideki Matsuyama rode his fourth-place Olympic finish into an even better second-place result at the FedEx WGC last week. His 64-63 weekend might have won most weekends if not for a slightly pedestrian start. The birdies started dropping and the Japanese golfer kept rising up the leaderboard. His putting, normally a weak point (181st overall), […]

Justin Rose Not Recommended for Wyndham Championship

It was thought that the Justin Rose 73 at The Open was bad enough but the final round 75 at the FedEx WGC was actually worse. Rose could not hit fairways, make putts, or do much of anything right. When a golfer bogeys the first two holes the way the Englishman did, it had the […]

Max Comtois Signs Two-Year Bridge Contract with Anaheim Ducks

Max Comtois signed a two-year deal with the Anaheim Ducks on Monday. The forward scored 16 goals and had 33 points in 55 games last season. His AAV on the contract is $2.0375 million. The left-winger saw increases in every category and especially role. He played over 15 minutes in 2021 and expects to exceed […]

Carter Hart Agrees to Three-Year Bridge Deal with Philadelphia Flyers

Carter Hart and the Philadelphia Flyers were both willing to put last year behind them as they agreed to a three-year contract on Monday. The contract pays Hart $3.979 million AAV. It is no secret that both parties had a 2020-21 to forget but believe that was a blip as opposed to a trend. In […]

Ilya Samsonov Nabs Show Me Contract for One Year in Washington

Ilya Samsonov had a trying season in Washington last year with COVID. The Washington Capitals gave him one more chance on Monday. His contract is for a season at $2 million. Samsonov did have 13 wins in 19 appearances but had just a .902 save percentage despite posting two shutouts. The Russian goaltender is just […]

Igor Shesterkin Signs Four-Year Deal with New York Rangers

Igor Shesterkin signed a four-year contract with the New York Rangers on Monday for an AAV of $5.65 million. This buys New York two years of unrestricted free agency on their Russian goaltender who is just 25. Shesterkin has played a total of 35 games last season for the Rangers. He posted a 2.62 goals-against […]

Denny Hamlin With Another Top Five Result But No Win

Even after the Olympic Break, Denny Hamlin found himself in a familiar position on Sunday. He finished in the top-five yet again but still is winless on the season. With the Kyle Larson result and extra points, Larson and Hamlin are now tied in points for the regular season lead. One spot for "The Chase" […]

Kyle Busch Never Got Up Front But Managed Fourth-Place Result

The Olympic Break did not serve Kyle Busch quite as well as expected. Busch never really got to the front after starting 20th on Sunday. He got close a few times but did not lead a single lap. It seemed the No. 18 car just always had something missing when there was a chance. Apparently, […]

Martin Truex Jr. Leads Joe Gibbs Racing Drivers Sunday, Finishes Third

Martin Truex Jr. just did not quite have the lift needed to keep up with Chase Elliott or Kyle Larson on Sunday. As a result, he was passed late in the race by Elliott and had to settle for third -- more than six seconds back of Larson. Truex Jr. did finish the best out […]

Chase Elliott Finished Second at Watkins Glen on Sunday

Chase Elliott had the best and fastest race car on the track Sunday at the Watkins Glen track. It did not matter. There was a reason he led no laps of the 90 contested. Simply, the No. 9 car made too many mistakes at critical moments. Every single time Elliott started to get close, something […]

Kyle Larson Drove Road Course Like Chase Elliott, Wins at Watkins Glen

Kyle Larson is a student of the game and a quick learner. What he has learned over the last season and change, he is applying versus the field. Again, he proved on Sunday that the No. 5 is a force to be reckoned with anywhere. Larson used his ability on long runs to save his […]

Darnell Nurse Signs Eight Year Extension with Edmonton Oilers

Darnell Nurse is now under contract for the next nine seasons with the Edmonton Oilers. The Edmonton defenseman inked an eight-year extension on Friday worth $9.25 million AAV over eight seasons. Nurse enjoyed an excellent season where he racked up 16 goals and 36 points in just 56 games. He shot a career-high 10.4% and […]

Bubba Wallace an Interesting Choice at Watkins Glen

Bubba Wallace has had a trying season, to say the least with his new 23XI racing team but is still 20th in the points standings. That is pretty good despite everything. In his last two road races, Wallace finished 15th at Sonoma and 24th in Wisconsin. He started from 36th at Road America which was […]

Kyle Busch Place Differential a Big Asset at Watkins Glen

Kyle Busch hit the pace car in New Hampshire, had numerous issues, and never fully recovered. Ultimately, he bowed out after eight laps and finished 37th. Before that, the Joe Gibbs Racing driver had six top-five finishes in his previous seven races. Those included a win at Pocono but more importantly, a fifth at Sonoma […]

Cole Custer Starts 19th at Watkins Glen, Could Maintain Position

Cole Custer has finished 17th, 17th, and 14th in his last three races. He starts the Go Bowling at The Glen from the 19th position on Sunday. Custer was able to maintain track position in Wisconsin only dropping two spots. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver has far from the fastest car but he tends to hang […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Rough to Consider at Watkins Glen

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. charged up the field at Wisconsin coming from outside the top 35 to finish 12th. However, he does have three DNF's in his past seven races. That is extremely troublesome for the JTG-Daugherty Racing driver. These are mostly car issues too. Two engine issues and one suspension problem were the culprits. So, […]

Kurt Busch Hopes to Keep Momentum at Watkins Glen

Kurt Busch had a few issues at New Hampshire before the Olympic Break but managed to guide his No. 1 car to a 16th place result. His last two road races have gone much better with a sixth at Sonoma and fourth at Wisconsin. Both tracks showed Busch enjoying excellent grip and speed while improving […]

Austin Dillon Consistency May Not Help on Sunday

Austin Dillon is another one of those drivers that may need a win to get in. He stands 13th in The Chase and has an average finish of yes, 13.4. Dillon also typically starts right around 13th too. This week, he comes in from the 16th position. The Richard Childress Racing driver does not lead […]

William Byron a Dicey Pick at Watkins Glen on Sunday

The good news is that William Byron does start only 15th at Watkins Glen. The bad news is that the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver is not that great on road courses. He does have one top ten in his last two tries at this track. Byron's last two races with left and right turns have […]

Matt DiBenedetto Not Expecting Much at Watkins Glen

Matt DiBenedetto is also right on "The Chase" bubble at 17th in the points standings. However, he does not have any wins on the season and prospects are pretty dim this week at Watkins Glen. The Wood Brothers Racing driver did finish tenth at Wisconsin but his other road results have been outside the top […]
