Gary Woodland Seeks Rebound After Sony Open

Gary Woodland wishes the first round from last week did not take place. It was an unmitigated disaster as the American golfer shot a whopping 76 on the La Quinta course.

K.H. Lee's Consistency May Not Be Good Enough

K.H. Lee shot in the 60's all four rounds last week at The Sony Open. That gave the South Korean golfer eight straight rounds under 70 to start 2023. However, this time that was only good enough for a tied for 28th. The one weakness Lee has is his sand saves which rank just 116th […]

Tom Hoge Expects To Rebound At American Express

Tom Hoge is a bit more of a longer shot this weekend at La Quinta. At +4200, no one should be surprised given the American golfer finished just outside the top 40 last week (t-41st). The smaller fairways and approaches to the green hindered Hoge, but he managed to shoot three-under-par during each weekend round. […]

Sungjae Im Trying To Get Back In Groove

Sungjae Im let things snowball last week at The Sony Open. His second round, in particular, was a disaster for the South Korean golfer. Not only were putts not dropping, but Im got wild on holes five and six. That led to a bogey and double bogey. Im never recovered and missed the cut after […]

Tom Kim Looks To Bounce Back At La Quinta

Sungjae Im One To Keep An Eye On For Sony Open

Wyndham Clark Could Atone For Misses Of Weekend's Past

Wyndham Clark has played well enough to win the last two tournaments on the PGA Tour. However, the American golfer has faltered on Saturday and Sunday due to missed putts and errant shots on back-nines. Though he has gained 0.23 strokes putting on the Fall wraparound, that number is likely closer to one if the […]

Kevin Kisner On The Radar At RSM Classic

Kevin Kisner is a huge wildcard heading into the RSM Classic this weekend in Georgia. After all, Kisner won the tournament in 2015 and finished second in 2020.

Patrick Rodgers Hopes For Friday Form From Last Week

Patrick Rodgers was good on Thursday and excellent on Friday at The Houston Open. He shot a 68 then a 63. After that the course turned a bit rough but his game wilted under the pressure. The 73-71 closing left him 11 strokes off the lead yet still tied for 16th. That gave him five […]

Denny McCarthy Hopes For A Better Weekend At RSM

Denny McCarthy could not get the putter or much of anything going for the weekend at The Houston Open. The American golfer tailed off after a very good opening round 67 on Thursday. The 75 on Sunday was just a punctuation mark to a bad three days. By Sunday, the driver was off, the iron […]

Sahith Theegala Up And Down So Far This Fall

What does one make of Sahith Theegala? The American golfer from Southern California has been up one tournament and down the next so far this Fall season. While his putting was pretty good two weeks ago, it was awful last week in Mexico. This is why Theegala only ranks 54th in putting at 0.404 strokes […]

Maverick McNealy Continuing To Contend This Fall

Maverick McNealy started draining a bunch of putts on Sunday en route to a 66 and another top-10 result this fall season.
