Lucas Glover's Putter May Fail Him At Congaree
Lucas Glover has a nice golf game for the most part but his putting this year is not the same. He ranks 136th putting with a strokes gain of -0.118. The problem with the golfer is finding that consistency. Glover finished 8th at the Charles Schwab and then just 37th at the Memorial last week. […]

Tommy Fleetwood Again Not Expected To Factor In At Congaree
It has been a difficult few months for Tommy Fleetwood. He finished fifth at the WGC Match Play but missed the cut at The Players Championship and then The PGA Championship. Fleetwood is 4th around the green on tour at nearly 0.6 strokes gained but that negative rating when it comes to putting is problematic. […]

Matt Fitzpatrick Needs Putter And Short Game Working At Congaree
Matt Fitzpatrick is one of the best putters in the sport. He ranks 19th overall in putting at 0.54 strokes gained. His strokes gained as a hole rank 18th (1.345). In his last four tournaments, Fitzpatrick missed the cut twice but also has a 23rd and a 4th. When his short-game and putting go erratic, […]

Harris English Could Turn Things Around At Congaree
Harris English had a tough tournament at Kiawah Island two weeks ago. He barely made the cut and fought hard just to finish 64th at +8. He is one of those golfers that can produce some very good results. English finished 4th at the US Open last year and won the Sentry Open to start […]

Rafa Cabrera Bello Could Have Rough Time At Congaree
At least Rafa Cabrera Bello can putt decently. He has been around the top-50 in putting all season. Despite that, he does not have a single top-20 finish this year on the PGA Tour. One good thing is his results in the last three weeks (21st, 32nd, and 37th). There is progress. The firm and […]

Byeong Hun An May Miss Another Cut At Congaree
Byeong Hun-An has performed poorly, to say the least in 2021. He is 162nd in the FedEx Cup Standings. The golfer has one top-ten finish at The American Express. Every other result is 35th or worse. He drives the ball okay at almost 300 yards, but his overall strokes gained are an abysmal -0.76 (176th […]

Kyle Busch just kept fighting all day and even survived a few bouts of contact. The result was a fifth-place that the younger Busch could live with. He started fifth and ended up in the same spot. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver had a bit of an adventure along the way. He was third after […]

To the surprise of many, Joey Logano was able to finish fourth at Sonoma on Sunday. The Team Penske driver even led five laps between all the pit stops, restarts, cautions, etc. It was a bit chaotic out there but Logano managed it well starting from 13th. The No. 22 seemed to have solid runs […]

Martin Truex Jr. Fought All Day, Finishes Third At Sonoma
Martin Truex Jr. started 19th on Sunday and though he was able to get up to near the front at times, he just did not have the downforce to take the lead. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver did not lead a single lap on Sunday. That was rare for him at a road course. The […]

Chase Elliott Finishes Second At Sonoma On Sunday
Chase Elliott was able to get by Kyle Larson a couple of times on Sunday. However, on the final restart, Elliott just never had a line to get past his teammate. Still, the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver finished second. Elliott even led 13 laps (Larson led 57). Usually, it is the No. 9 that dominates […]

Can Chase Briscoe Do It Again At Sonoma?
Chase Briscoe was the surprise of surprises at Austin just two weeks ago. He started 27th there and wound up moving into the top-five at a few points. When the race was called, Briscoe finished sixth. That was a season-best for the Stewart-Haas Racing driver. The question is this. Can he do it again? This […]

Kurt Busch Might Linger Around At Sonoma On Sunday
Kurt Busch's bad luck struck again last week at Charlotte as his engine blew early in the race. He was running pretty well too. This may be his worst year since 2012 where he had just five top-ten finishes over 36 races. Sonoma may offer a bit of refuge for the Chip Ganassi Racing driver. […]

Garrett Smithley Has Slight Potential At Sonoma
Garrett Smithley starts 34th on Sunday at the California road track. While he has not finished any better than 27th at any race, Smithley might have a better showing at Sonoma. The Rick Ware Racing driver has started in just nine races this season. With the horsepower build and downforce requirements, Smithley has a bit […]

Christopher Bell Bit Of An Unknown At Sonoma
Christopher Bell has had road success at NASCAR but has never raced at Sonoma. Blame the pandemic in 2020. Either way, he does start 20th and the Joe Gibbs Racing driver has a chance to move up a little. The downforce adjustments could trouble the Bell car a bit. The horsepower package may not be […]

Martin Truex Jr. Among Favorites To Win At Sonoma
Martin Truex Jr. starts a shocking 19th on Sunday at Sonoma. This is a place differential dream for many. Truex Jr. won the race the last time the Carousel was used. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has won three times this year and three times at Sonoma. That includes two in a row. It would […]

Matt DiBenedetto May Surprise At Sonoma
Now, Matt DiBenedetto is one of those drivers that unexpectedly thrived at Sonoma the last time NASCAR came to town in 2019. He finished fourth out of almost nowhere. Could DiBenedetto do it again? At the very least, the Wood Brothers Racing driver should improve track position and nicely. In five appearances, DiBenedetto has moved […]

Daniel Suarez One To Stay Away From At Sonoma
While Daniel Suarez is not the worst idea on Sunday, he is certainly not the best either. In 2019, Suarez got into the top-five qualifying. During the race, he repeatedly had issues on longer runs. That could present itself as the TrackHouse Racing driver may not have the speed or the ability to make good […]

Bubba Wallace Not Recommended At Sonoma
Bubba Wallace has an average finish of 27.5 in two races at Sonoma. The 23XI Racing driver has not had one top-ten result all year. He has won a stage and been at the forefront of more than a few accidents. It has been a learning experience for Wallace in 2021, to say the least. […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Quite Dicey At Sonoma
Ricky Stenhouse Jr. has one really good performance this year in 16 races. He has no top-ten results in seven races at Sonoma. Few should expect much of anything from the JTG-Daugherty Racing driver. He finished 21st on the Carousel in 2019 and did not factor much in the race. That is the most likely […]

Joey Logano Being Forgotten About At Sonoma
Joey Logano starts 13th on Sunday at the California track. Logano seems to have been overlooked in some circles but he does have four top-tens and two top-fives at Sonoma. The concern is how much the Team Penske driver fell off two years ago as he plummeted to 23rd. That being said, the No. 22 […]

Chris Buescher May Have Limited Upside At Sonoma
Chris Buescher has been able to stay around the top-15 at the California track. The problem for Buescher may be the downforce. It does not seem he fares that well with that. Combine this with the 750HP package and the JTG-Daugherty Racing driver may have trouble especially at first. Buescher may be able to cope […]

Ryan Blaney Will Have Upside At Sonoma On Sunday
Ryan Blaney starts from the 11th spot on Sunday at Sonoma. The Team Penske driver has had some success on the longer version of the track known as the Carousel. He finished third on the 90-lap version just in 2019. Blaney is one of those road drivers that just finds a way to adapt. Even […]

Tyler Reddick A Wildcard At Sonoma On Sunday
Tyler Reddick has eight top-tens in 15 races this year but just one top ten in four career starts on a road course at the top level. Reddick showed at Austin he could drive with the top road contenders. However, Sonoma is a different animal. Again, there is a lot of unknown where it comes […]

Brad Keselowski May Not Do Well At Sonoma On Sunday
Brad Keselowski had one great run in the last five races at Sonoma. That was a third in 2017. Every other result surrounding that has been 13th or worse. He hung on the lead lap in 2019 with the Carousel and speed-wise just could not come. close. The Team Penske driver may have even more […]

Kevin Harvick Another One To Watch At Sonoma
Will the downforce be an equalizer on Sunday for Kevin Harvick? No one quite knows that answer but few drivers can adapt as well as Harvick. He starts eighth on Sunday and the Stewart-Haas Racing driver has won once at Sonoma. Also, Harvick has five straight top-six finishes. The racer knows this track and knows […]
