Seamus Power Still Aiming For Consistency

Seamus Power has been very good one event and bad the next. The golfer from Ireland will make the cut one week and miss the next. This pattern has been continuing on and off for the past three months. Power still does not have a Top 10 result in 2024 but has several Top 25 […]

Nick Dunlap Riding Ups And Downs Of PGA Tour

Nick Dunlap turned pro earlier in 2024. The American Express winner has had quite a rookie year.

He bounced back after a middling Travelers Championship to finish in the Top 10 at the Rocket Mortgage […]

Davis Thompson Rolling Into John Deere Classic

Davis Thompson started out 2024 pretty slowly. However, the surprise Top 10 result af the U.S. Open spurred the American golfer. Thompson shot all four rounds in the 60's at the Rocket Mortgage Classic last week. That resulted in a tie for second which almost vaulted Thompson into the Top 50 for the FedEx Cup. […]

Chris Buescher Ends Up Fifth At Nashville

Chris Buescher has not had the best of seasons after a breakout 2023 campaign. The RFK Racing driver has zero wins in 2024. However, there may be a sense of optimism floating through the Buescher camp. He does have three Top 5 results in his last four races (including Nashville - 5th). Furthermore, Buescher is […]

Ryan Preece Survives Into Top Five

Ryan Preece had far from the best car on Sunday at Nashville. However, he survived the five overtimes and got his car up to fourth place at the end. That is what mattered. Preece never led a lap and was nowhere near accumulating any stage points for the Ally 400. However, in the end, like […]

Zane Smith Lacks Speed For Sunday Race

Zane Smith kept falling off the pace at New Hampshire and Iowa. The results for the Spire Motorsports car were two results in the 30's. Smith qualified 35th for Sunday's Ally 400 and it would not be surprising if he gets lapped in short order. Finishing 0.92 seconds off the pole position time of Denny […]

Ryan Preece Could Be An Option At Nashville

Ryan Preece may have been slowest among Stewart-Haas Racing drivers in qualifying at Nashville on Saturday.

Preece flirted heavily with the Top […]

John Hunter Nemechek Capitalizing Off Momentum

Daniel Hemric To The Back For Sunday Race

Daniel Hemric was slow in qualifying and nearly 3/4 of a second off of the pole time set by Denny Hamlin. Furthermore, he will start from 37th at Nashville this Sunday afternoon. The Kaulig Racing Chevy may have a few issues getting around the 1.33-mile course. Though Nashville behaves like a superspeedway in some ways, […]

Harrison Burton Building Off New Hampshire

Harrison Burton was able to move up at New Hampshire due to attrition and some great pit strategy. His +13 place differential in the Wood Brothers Racing car offered hope for this week's Ally 400. The No. 21 Ford starts Sunday from the 25th position as Burton was 0.529 seconds off the time of Denny […]

Chase Briscoe Stuck In The Middle For Nashville

Chase Briscoe was one of the slower qualifiers on the Stewart-Haas Racing team. His Saturday effort has Briscoe starting 19th for Sunday afternoon's Ally 400.

Martin Laird On Roller Coaster Headed To Detroit

Martin Laird has been up and down the past half dozen tournaments. The Scottish golfer has missed three cuts in that span and never finished in the Top 25.

Taylor Montgomery Attempts Return At Rocket Mortgage Classic

Taylor Montgomery is another golfer who has hit a considerable rough stretch in 2024. The American golfer has not played since withdrawing from The CJ Cup Byron Nelson in early May.

Matti Schmid Trying To Make The Weekend

Matti Schmid has endured one of the strangest 2024 seasons on the PGA Tour. The German golfer missed six consecutive cuts to start the year and now has missed five straight.

Tyler Reddick Settles For Sixth At New Hampshire

Tyler Reddick probably hoped NASCAR would end the race after 219 laps. The 23XI Racing driver was in the lead when the rains and weather delay came. However, NASCAR pulled an audible and decided to race on the wet tires. Reddick's No. 45 car moved up and down but still wound up sixth after the […]

Daniel Hemric Begins Sunday 33rd At USA Today 301

Daniel Hemric has work to do in his Kaulig Racing car at New Hampshire. No qualifying means Hemric will start 33rd at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Kaz Grala Near The Rear Again At New Hampshire

Kaz Grala and his Rick Ware Racing car did not get much work in on Saturday like everyone else. Grala ran a few laps and then the raindrops came. The No. 15 Ford was 31st even in the abbreviated practice session. Again, not much can be taken from practice. However, Grala's car was slow at […]

Ty Dillon Begins From The Back At USA Today 301

Si Woo Kim Still Trying To Putt Consistently

Si Woo Kim is an incredibly talented golfer. The South Korean is still only 28. Despite only one Top 10 in 2024, it feels like Kim has been in contention several times this year. He ranks 160th in strokes gained to putting (-0.450). His birdie conversion percentage of 30.68 is 97th or right around tour […]

Denny McCarthy To Unleash His Putter This Week

Denny McCarthy played a very good second round at the U.S. Open. The American golfer appeared poised to make a move and then Saturday happened. It was not so much the 72 but the several missed putts on the Front 9 and several missed shots on the Back 9. McCarthy dropped out of the Top […]

Cameron Young has mightily struggled in three tournaments this June. The American golfer missed the but at the RBC Canadian Open. Then, Young shot a 76-77 over the weekend at The Memorial.
