John Hunter Nemechek Driving Well In 2024

John Hunter Nemechek has not qualified the greatest but keeps improving as races wind down. Nemechek has one Top 10 result already in 2024 for Legacy Motor Club. He will have a bit of work to do this week after qualifying 19th for Sunday's race at Phoenix Raceway. It will be intriguing to see if […]

Erik Jones Might Rekindle Good Times At Phoenix

While Erik Jones has a slim chance of winning on Sunday at Phoenix, the Legacy Motor Club driver did have four Top 10 results in six races right before the pandemic. That was back when Jones drove the Toyota on the Joe Gibbs Racing team. Now, this may not be the exact same setup but […]

Harrison Burton Outside Top 20 At Phoenix

Emiliano Grillo Goes For Eight Weekends In A Row

Naturally, Emiliano Grillo wants to win at Bay Hill. The golfer from Argentina has had some mixed results at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. He was in the Top 10 three years ago during the final round. However, a 74 derailed those chances as Grillo settled for a tie for 21st. Last year, he again ended […]

Justin Rose Needs His Putter At Bay Hill

Justin Rose will need several facets of his golf game to work very well this week at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. For one, the English golfer cannot get into trouble like he did at the Cognizant Classic. Rose never got going last week and inched his way to a -1 through 72 holes. Putting has […]

Adam Hadwin Tries To Stay Hot In Florida

The last two rounds for Adam Hadwin were excellent at The Genesis Invitational. The Canadian golfer shot 67-65 to sneak into a tie for fourth place. Hadwin skipped the Cognizant Classic to get a week off. It will be a challenge for Hadwin as in 2023, the golfer shot +5 through nine holes at Bay […]

Luke List Attempts To Rebound At Arnold Palmer

Luke List has endured a couple of rough weeks recently. The American golfer has now missed the cut in two of his last three tournaments entered (Cognizant Classic and the WM Phoenix Open).

Ryan Blaney Settles For Third In Las Vegas

Ryan Blaney and his Team Penske car never quite could get into the lead on Sunday. However, he managed to finish third after 267 laps in Las Vegas. The No. 12 Ford could not maintain speed and seemed to get slower during the final laps. Once Blaney got up to fourth after Stage 2, he […]

Erik Jones Starts 22nd From Vegas On Sunday

Erik Jones has had a bit of an adjustment with his Toyota car for Legacy Motor Club. Starting off 37th at Atlanta probably was not ideal but he did improve 12 positions. It may be a little harder doing that at Las Vegas on Sunday beginning 22nd. Jones' best result was an eighth in the […]

Austin Cindric Nearly Takes Pole At Las Vegas

Austin Cindric got the car going at the right time on Saturday and came up just short of taking the pole at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Cindric and his Team Penske car settled for third, a mere 0.042 seconds off of Joey Logano's pole position lap. For a time, Cindric looked like he might […]

Harrison Burton Way Off Pace At Las Vegas

Harrison Burton has not qualified well at Las Vegas. The last couple races were near the final position. On Saturday, he turned in a lap more than 1.4 seconds off the pole of Joey Logano. The Wood Brothers Racing driver is on the hot seat and starting 36th is not ideal (33rd and 35th last […]

Chris Buescher Starts Ninth At Las Vegas

Chris Buescher and the RFK Racing team got in a few solid runs on Saturday in the heavy winds. Buescher and his No. 17 Ford will start ninth on Sunday after a solid 29.52 second lap in the final round of qualifying. Buescher was right around the top ten or so cars in practice and […]

Josh Barry Still Struggling In Ford Car

Thomas Detry Trying To Shake Off Rough Event In Mexico

Thomas Detry wants to desperately forget the Mexico Open. The Belgian golfer watched shots go all over the place en route to an opening 78 at Vidanta. His second round was much better but a 69 was not enough to make the cut. That marked the second time Detry missed the cut in 2024. His […]

Akshay Bhatia Up And Down In 2024

Akshay Bhatia may be consistently inconsistent. The American golfer has alternated being close to contention and missing cuts the last four tournaments. He missed the cut at the WM Phoenix Open after an opening round 75. While Bhatia played well in Hawaii, several lost opportunities on the greens kept him from Top 10 results (T-14 […]

Billy Horschel Might Fare Better After Rest

Billy Horschel taking a few weeks off was not a bad thing. The American golfer has missed two cuts so far in four 2024 appearances. Coupled with a top 20 at The Sony Open, it has not been the best of starts. His numbers have been solid and ranks fifth in strokes gained for putting […]

Kaz Grala Rises To 14th By End Of Atlanta Race

Austin Cindric Enjoys Top 5 Result At Atlanta

Austin Cindric performed well but the Team Penske driver could not get into the three-wide melee on the final lap. Cindric and his Ford did wind up passing Bubba Wallace for fourth place, however. The No. 2 car led 32 laps and at times had one of the fastest cars on the 1.5-mile Atlanta Motor […]

Tyler Reddick Starts In The Middle Of The Pack At Atlanta

Tyler Reddick does not enjoy "superspeedway" or similar courses. The 23XI Racing driver begins Sunday 19th at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Last week […]

Harrison Burton Begins Sunday 16th From Atlanta

Denny Hamlin Has One Of Those Days At Daytona

Denny Hamlin started eighth, ran well at times, and even led 10 laps at the Daytona 500 on Monday. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver ultimately finished 19th on Monday night. That was ahead of Jimmie Johnson and Tyler Reddick. Hamlin and his No. 11 car never could really stay up front long. Drafting seemed to […]

Chase Elliott Ends Up 14th At Daytona

Chase Elliott ran quite well at Daytona. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver was in the Top 5 or 10 most of the race on Monday. He even led 13 laps and won Stage 1. It was the end where the No. 9 car lost the line and positions. Elliott did end up with his third-best […]

Sam Stevens Will Need Better Sunday In Mexico

Sam Stevens has made each cut in 2024. In those four tournaments, however, the American golfer has shot 73 or worse three times. His only time under par was at the Waste Management Phoenix Open (70).
