Victor Hovland Could Win The Memorial This Weekend

Victor Hovland is one of those "favorites" at 18 to 1 to win The Memorial this weekend. He is one of the few golfers out there that can drive the ball long and just straight enough on this demanding course (53rd and 69th). His 68.5% greens in regulation (27th) will help ease his putting fears. […]

Shane Lowry Could Lurk Around Top At Memorial

Shane Lowry has a tendency to just linger around in tournaments. At the PGA, his three-under 69 on Sunday lifted him to a fourth-place finish few saw coming. His final rounds in the past three tournaments have been rather good. The form is there at least. He won The Open two years ago but his […]

Matt Fitzpatrick Needs Putter To Contend At Memorial

Matt Fitzpatrick can be deadly accurate around the greens and on fairways but his length could hurt on this large 7500-yard course. Fitzpatrick can barely drive the ball 290 yards most of the time. Courses like the TPC and the PGA suited Fitzpatrick better because of his ability to play around the course. Driving short […]

Tony Finau Will Be Tested This Weekend At Memorial

Tony Finau can get to the weekend but can he finally perform consistently on Saturday and Sunday? That driving accuracy is a pesky detriment along with his putter sometimes. However, few get to the green as consistent as Finau does (23rd on tour). The golfer is one of the very select that have made all […]

Adam Scott Off His Game At Bad Time For Memorial

This could be another rough week for Adam Scott as some term The Memorial as a "fifth major". Scott missed the cut at the PGA and has not really contended much of anywhere in 2021 (best finish -- 10th). He drives the ball well enough at 308.3 yards (17th) but so many parts of his […]

Patrick Reed In For Challenging Week At The Memorial

Can Patrick Reed overcome his driver on a long course? His driving average is just over 290 yards but the rest of his game makes him dangerous in Ohio come the weekend. His strokes gained from putting is .923 (4th on tour). The biggest concern is Reed getting the ball on the green (172nd) but […]

Bryson DeChambeau Has Length And Game To Win At Memorial

Bryson DeChambeau drives the golf ball the best on tour at 322 yards. On a 7500+ yard course, that helps. He just has to keep the ball in the fairway. His accuracy is just 54.63% (172nd) but again that greens-in-regulation ranks better at 65th. DeChambeau leads the tour in overall strokes gained (2.105) and even […]

Rory McIlroy Expected To Contend At Memorial

Rory McIlroy has some question marks heading into this week's Memorial. He can drive the ball like almost no one (2nd -- 319 yards). The problem is that 55% accuracy (168th). Strokes gained tee-to-green is where McIlroy excels (13th) but his putting is just 82nd on the tour. It boils down to the putter this […]

Alex Bowman Rides Hendrick Wave To Fifth Place Result At Charlotte

Alex Bowman's car was pretty fast all night as the No. 48 parlayed that into a fifth-place result at Charlotte on Sunday. Bowman's Chevy actually managed to lead five laps along the way as well. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver moved up to 12th place in the Cup Series standings with the result. Bowman was […]

William Byron Continues His Consistency, Finishes Fourth At Charlotte

William Byron's streak of top-ten finishes only ended at Austin last week because of rain. There were no such issues this week as Byron finished fourth on Sunday at the Coca-Cola 600. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver was even able to lead 19 laps. He never did get to ride in the clean air much […]

Kyle Busch Breaks Up Hendrick Dominance, Finishes Third At Charlotte

Kyle Busch went on a nice run at the end of the Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday and nearly passed Chase Elliott for second place. In the end, Busch just ran out of laps and settled for third place. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver led only one lap but was near the front during most of […]

Chase Elliott Finishes In Second At Charlotte On Sunday

The second-place finish for Chase Elliott was a nice follow-up to his road win at Texas. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver was probably the second-fastest driver on the track on Sunday. He still finished more than ten seconds behind Kyle Larson. That being said, Elliott was able to hold off Kyle Busch which was not […]

Kyle Larson Completely Dominates And Wins At Charlotte

This time, Kyle Larson dominated a race and finished it. Larson led 327 laps and won the Coca-Cola 600 by over ten seconds. It became apparent early that the Hendrick Motorsports Driver had the superior car on the Charlotte track. Larson swept all three stages along the way and was challenged by Chase Elliott and […]

Cole Custer Could Muster A Modestly Good Result At Charlotte

Cole Custer has enjoyed a few good results this season. However, the 1.5-mile tracks at this level have not been too kind to Custer. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver qualified 23rd for the Coca-Cola 600. Custer started 28th last year and wound up 12th by the end of the race. His ability to get an excellent […]

Chase Briscoe Will Learn Some Good Things At Charlotte

Chase Briscoe qualified near the top 20 which did raise a few eyebrows. Briscoe enjoys a slight positive place differential. Do not expect anything drastic. However, a 21st place start is not horrible. If Briscoe lurks near the top-15, that would be an accomplishment for the No. 14 Ford. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver had a […]

Matt DiBenedetto Might Move Up At Charlotte

Matt DiBenedetto is just on the outside looking in when it comes to the NASCAR playoff (17th place). The Wood Brothers Racing driver did surprise some last year when he moved up to 17th from a 33rd starting position in the Coca-Cola 600. DiBenedetto may not have the best track record when it comes to […]

Kyle Busch Rounds Out Top 20 At Charlotte, Should Finish Higher

Kyle Busch ended up 20th in qualifying on Saturday for Sunday's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The younger Busch has won six times on intermediate tracks since 2018 including Kansas this year where he led 20 laps. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has led a series-high 32.27% of laps at Charlotte over the past […]

Christopher Bell Has Less Upside At Charlotte

Christopher Bell just is not that driver one thinks he would be on shorter and intermediate tracks. The 1.5-mile speedway should tailor to Bell's advantages rather well. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has finished 14th or worse in five straight races. This might be six as Bell has just shown some awful form. The best […]

Joey Logano Could Enjoy Place Differential Rise At Charlotte

Most thought that Joey Logano would be around 8th-10th. So many times on this track, the Team Penske driver finishes right around the top ten (between 8th and 12th). Logano is 6th at Charlotte in points the past three years and fourth on this type of track overall. The No. 22 Ford will be more […]

Tyler Reddick Slides Into Top-15 In Qualifying, Could Move Up At Charlotte

Tyler Reddick looked a little better in practice on Saturday but managed to qualify in 15th for Sunday's race at Charlotte. The Richard Childress Racing driver expects to have the speed to inch up the field. One of the main questions will be can Reddick stay close to the front as the laps accumulate? That […]

Brad Keselowski A Wildcard At Charlotte This Sunday

Brad Keselowski has recently won at Charlotte and has five wins on intermediate tracks over the last three seasons. The Team Penske driver has 11 to 1 odds to win on Sunday at Charlotte. However, he has endured quite the up and down season. Despite this, Keselowski does have the sixth most points among all […]

Kurt Busch Rises Up But Can He Stay Near Top Ten At Charlotte?

Kurt Busch is one of the better drivers on low-wear intermediate tracks but even he seemed mildly surprised that he was 12th. While the Chip Ganassi Racing driver did not lead a ton of laps -- he led 3.82% of them at Charlotte in the past four appearances. Busch has three top-tens in that span. […]

Denny Hamlin Expects To Rise In Field At Charlotte

Denny Hamlin probably thought he might be closer to the top five on Sunday but it was not meant to be. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver qualified 14th and many believe he will easily move into contention. Hamlin has the ninth-best average finish at Charlotte and seventh overall on intermediate tracks since 2018. The No. […]

Ryan Blaney Should Have Some DFS Upside At Charlotte On Sunday

Ryan Blaney is among a group that could have some decent DFS upside on Sunday at Charlotte. Some expected him to qualify closer to the top five. However, he wound up just 11th. The Team Penske driver has three top tens and two top-fives in his career at Charlotte. While Blaney has zero wins at […]

Ross Chastain Rounds Out Top Ten In Qualifying, May Factor At Charlotte

Ross Chastain qualified tenth on Saturday from the Chip Ganassi Racing Team. Chastain is enjoying one of his best seasons as a pro with a top-five and two top-ten finishes. He has not fared well at Charlotte but this year just feels a little different. Can Chastain find a way to avoid trouble? He tends […]

Daniel Suarez Surprises On Saturday, Could He Again On Sunday?

Daniel Suarez created a little bit of buzz when he nabbed the ninth position in qualifying on Saturday from Charlotte. The Trackhouse Racing Team driver looked quite good in practice as well. The only question is can his Chevy have the endurance to thrive on the expected long runs. Charlotte can be one unforgiving 1.5-mile […]

Martin Truex Jr. Could Be Very Strong Again At Charlotte

If one driver can break up the Hendrick Motorsports Racing brigade, it may just be Martin Truex Jr. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver wound up qualifying in eighth place on Saturday but is nestled in a good position to inch up the field. The No. 19 has great results at Charlotte and has 11-2 odds […]

Alex Bowman Could Linger Around Top Ten At Charlotte

The last of the four Hendrick Motorsports Racing drivers, Alex Bowman, qualified seventh on Saturday. He finished ahead of Martin Truex Jr. which was a mild surprise. The No. 48 Chevy had a little trouble on turns 3 and 4 but not enough to knock him out of the top ten. How will Bowman adapt […]

Kevin Harvick Sneaks In With Fast Lap At Charlotte, Could Contend

Kevin Harvick turned a few heads with a sub-30 second lap in qualifying on Saturday. That gives him a fifth-place start for Sunday's Coca-Cola 600. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver may have some issues staying in the top five. However, expect the driver to be able to adapt as the runs get longer on Sunday night. […]
