Joe Nicely PREMIUM 4 years agoViktor Hovland Looks To Make Major Impression
Viktor Hovland is one of the most exciting young players on the PGA Tour. He's been tremendous since the restart, racking up seven top-25 finishes over the last three months. Hovland is an elite ball striker and has the ability to handle the length of this week's Winged Foot layout. However, things might get tricky […]

Young Matthew Fitzpatrick is set to tackle Winged Foot Golf Club this week. The Englishman has performed well in golf's toughest event, posting back-to-back T12 finishes in the last two U.S. Opens. Fitzpatrick has a tremendous short game and ranks third in this field in strokes gained putting over recent rounds, but his lack of […]

Ian Poulter heads to Winged Foot Golf Club this week with 14 career U.S. Open starts on his resume. Poulter's best career finish in a U.S. Open, a T12, came on this Winged Foot layout in 2006, and he seems like the type of cagey veteran that might be able to navigate this treacherous track […]

It's really easy to forget that Matthew Wolff is just 21 years old. The youngster made his major championship debut at the PGA Championship last month and posted an impressive T4. The lack of experience is always a concern in U.S. Opens, but in a vacuum, Wolff is intriguing. He has a nice combination of […]
Joe Nicely 4 years agoJordan Spieth Is Still Lost
It wasn't that long ago that Jordan Spieth was winning the U.S. Open. This week we're more concerned with if he'll be able to make the cut. The young Texan appears to be totally lost with his swing right now. Spieth ranks 121st in the field in strokes gained off the tee and 109th in […]

Rickie Fowler heads to Winged Foot Golf Club in slumping form. The fan favorite stands just 61st in the field in strokes gained tee to green over recent rounds. If he were in better form, Fowler is a play that would be intriguing on this layout, as it does fit his game on paper. He's […]

Leading up to and including the PGA Championship, Jason Day started to look like his former elite self. Unfortunately, the magic has left just as quickly as it came. Day has struggled mightily since his T4 at Harding Park, only recording one sub-70 round in his six post-PGA Championship rounds. Despite his recent funk, the […]

Paul Casey will attempt to follow up his blazing runner-up performance in the PGA Championship this week at Winged Foot Golf Club. Casey has been an extremely consistent performer in the U.S. Open, recording top-25 finishes in each of the last three years. The Englishman finished the season ranked 21st on the PGA Tour in […]
Joe Nicely 4 years agoDaniel Berger A Rock-Solid DFS Option
Perhaps the most consistent performer of the season, Daniel Berger has missed just one cut this calendar year and has gained strokes tee-to-green in all but one start of 2020. Berger picked up a win in the first tournament back after the restart at the Charles Schwab and has added three more top-three finishes to […]
Joe Nicely 4 years agoJustin Rose Has Been Consistently Inconsistent
For many years an auto play in major championships, Justin Rose has been anything but consistent as of late. True to recent form, the Englishman logged a T9 at the PGA Championship on the heels of three straight missed cuts, and then proceeded to log a missed cut against a weak field at the Wyndham […]

It's been a year marked by injury and disappointment for Tiger Woods. The legend has failed to capitalize on his promising play during the fall of 2019 and hasn't cracked the top-25 in a tournament since January. Woods has continued to strike his irons well, but has lost strokes putting in five-straight starts. It is […]
Joe Nicely 4 years agoTony Finau Has Been Consistent In Majors
Much is made of Tony Finau's inability to win golf tournaments, but despite being winless in major championships, the 31-year-old has been remarkably consistent in the year's biggest events. Finau has recorded four top-five finishes in his last nine major-championship starts and heads to this week's U.S. Open on the heels of a T4 in […]

Bryson DeChambeau has gained lots of publicity for his bulked-up physique and distance off the tee. However, it's DeChambeau's iron play that is the real story as he heads to Winged Foot Golf Club for this week's U.S. Open. The 26-year-old has been ice cold with the irons recently and ranks just 117th in this […]

Collin Morikawa emerged victorious from the year's first major, capturing the PGA Championship in dramatic fashion at TPC Harding Park. The young star will try to make it two majors in a row this week at the U.S. Open. Morikawa is perhaps the best young iron player that we've seen since Tiger Woods, but it's […]

Rory McIlroy heads to Winged Foot Golf Club in search of the second U.S. Open title of his career. McIlroy started the season in white-hot form, but his game has floundered since the PGA Tour's restart.

Jon Rahm heads to Winged Foot Golf Club this week in search of his first major championship victory. Rahm has continually gained steam since the restart and has notched marquee wins at both the Memorial and the BMW Championship.
