Can Patrick Cantlay Capture His First Major In California?

Patrick Cantlay's major history record had been held against him, but that appears to be changing. After he struggled for years, Cantlay's last four majors have been some of his best. He has finished inside the top 10 in two of his last majors, including the PGA Championship. However, at $10,300 Cantlay is priced as […]

Can Jon Rahm Rebound After Rough PGA Championship?

Jon Rahm has been unbeatable at times this season, but after The Masters, his play has dipped a bit outside of a big week in Mexico. As one of the most expensive golfers, Rahm needs to win the tournament to pay off his price. He was dominant earlier this year during the California swing two […]

Can Irene Aldana Challenge The Champion?

It's a tall task to beat one of the best to ever enter The Octagon, but Irene Aldana has a pathway to pull off the upset. Aldana will need to replicate what the fighter she's replacing did to beat Nunes. If Aldana can use her boxing skills to batter Nunes, there's a chance she can […]

Amanda Nunes A Heavy Favorite Again

It's no surprise to regular MMA fans that a big bet on Amanda Nunes will be required for a significant return on Saturday. Nunes sits at -320 over Irene Aldana, who replaced Juliana Pena last month due to injury. There isn't a fighter in the sport that Nunes wouldn't be heavily favored against, but Aldana […]

Approach Play Holding S.H. Kim Back

During his rookie season, there has been one difference between S.H. Kim's missed cuts and high finishes. When Kim finished in the top-25 he gained strokes on approach in almost every event. In each event where he missed the cut or finished T50 or worse, Kim has struggled to hit his irons. With the small […]

Mark Hubbard Continues To Make Cuts

After a rough stretch to start the season, Mark Hubbard has been on a run for the past two months. Hubbard has made six of eight cuts and when he reaches the weekend Hubbard has finished higher than expected due to elite approach play and improved putting. At $7,300 on DraftKings, if Hubbard can repeat […]

Mackenzie Hughes Worth A Wild-Card Play At RBC Canadian

Consistent play is not something Mackenzie Hughes is known for. Hughes will go from a run of missed cuts and then find himself high up on a leaderboard. That makes it hard to trust Hughes when it's impossible to know how well he will play each week. However, the RBC Canadian offers an interesting spot […]

Lee Hodges Trending Toward Another High Finish

Lee Hodges' finishing positions and statistics don't exactly make sense. Hodges has gained strokes overall during six of eight events since April but only has a T6 and T12 to show for it. What has held Hodges back has been his putter. Hodges gained strokes in both short-game statistics last week and continued his elite […]

Brandon Wu Worth A Play At RBC Canadian

Brandon Wu is a really difficult player to predict on the PGA Tour. Wu struggles with his putter consistently, but the other parts of his game fluctuate each week. Wu is an accurate driver but doesn't have a lot of distance off the tee. Wu has a pair of high finishes this season and on […]

Can Harry Hall Shake Off Charles Schwab Collapse?

Harry Hall's rookie season has been impressive, but it could have been amazing. Hall seemed to have his first PGA Tour victory locked up after an elite two rounds at the Charles Schwab Challenge last month. Hall wasn't able to finish and ended up T3 and missed out on the playoff. Hall's short-game skills are […]

Maverick McNealy Continues To Struggle This Season

Maverick McNealy continues to struggle this season following a shoulder injury at the start of the year. After a T7 at Sony to open the season, McNealy hasn't been able to post a finish inside the top-35. His putter will always be elite, but the ball-striking numbers have been brutal for McNealy. Off the tee, […]

Ludvig Aberg Making Pro Debut At RBC Canadian

Ludvig Aberg will no longer be the No. 1 amateur in the world after this week. Aberg earned his PGA Tour card as the top player in the PGA Tour University rankings. While it will be his first start as a professional, Aberg has already played against some of the world's best and held his […]

Can Adrian Meronk Repeat International Success?

By just looking at his PGA Tour finishes, it's been an average season for Adrian Meronk. At 30 years old, the Polish golfer has been elite while playing on the DP World Tour. Meronk won last month and added two top-5 finishes and a trio of top-20s. Meanwhile, on the PGA Tour, Meronk is still […]

Two Straight Solid Starts For Shane Lowry

After a struggle to start the season, it appears Shane Lowry has found his form. Lowry struggled a lot with his short game earlier this year, but the past two weeks have shown positive signs. Lowry gained strokes both around the green and putting for the first time this season. Lowry also increased his elite […]

Patrick Rodgers Continues To Struggle On Approach

When Patrick Rodgers nearly won and went on a run of top-20 finishes last month, the biggest difference in his game was his ball-striking. Rodgers had been driving the ball well and had a solid short game. He started to gain strokes on approach and found himself higher up on leaderboards. However, for the past […]

Taylor Montgomery Struggling With Ball-Striking

Taylor Montgomery will make a few birdies every week because his putting skills are so good, but recently he tends to make more bogeys. His driver accuracy is among the worst on the PGA Tour (No. 161), and his approach play has been worse (No. 178). At a course like Muirfield Village, which is designed […]

Brian Harman Worth Watching This Week

An elevated-event field at a course designed to be difficult is a bad fit for Brian Harman. His smaller stature suggests that he doesn't get distance from his driver, but a 295-yard average is pretty solid. It's the rest of his game that has been the problem this year. Despite extremely accurate drives, Harman has […]

Has Harris English Found His 2021 Form?

The 2022 season was rough for Harris English, as he had surgery on his hip and struggled to make cuts when he returned to the Tour. Since February, English seems to have found the 2021 form that saw him win twice during that season. Before a brutal round on Sunday, English was headed for another […]

Chris Kirk Continues To Struggle With Putter

For a player like Chris Kirk that has great ball-striking skills but lacks distance off the tee, putting well is important. Since his win in February, Kirk has been sporadic with his putter. That club has been trending down nearly every week since The Masters and hit a new low last week with nearly two […]

Russell Henley Continues To Trend Upward

Muirfield Village is not a great fit for Russell Henley, but he has been impressive for the past two months. Remove the PGA Championship, which was never going to fit his skill set, and Henley has been on a tear. He had four top-20 finishes and a T4 at The Masters. Henley is the most […]

Si Woo Kim A Dark-Horse Pick To Win Memorial

At this point in Si Woo Kim's career, it's clear what he needs to do to contend. Ball-striking is never in question with Kim, it just comes down to how well his short game is that week. While Kim has traditionally struggled with his putter, Muirfield Village is a course where that hasn't been the […]

Can Wyndham Clark Bounce Back At Memorial?

In hindsight, Wyndham Clark's missed cut at the PGA Championship was predictable. His next start after his first PGA Tour win was on a tough course during difficult conditions against the best golfers in the world. Clark was inaccurate off the tee, like usual, and struggled to make putts, which was unusual. Inaccuracy with his […]

It's Tough To Trust Shane Lowry This Season

Shane Lowry is a talented golfer, but this season has been one to forget. Lowry continues to crush the ball off the tee and hit greens with his irons, but his short game has been a major struggle. Lowry's solid skills around and on the greens have disappeared this season, making him impossible to play. […]

Pay Attention To Adam Scott's Putting Stats

Adam Scott is as close to a lock to make the cut each week as possible on the PGA Tour. Scott has made it to the weekend in 19 straight events, but at $8,000 on DraftKings, is that enough to pay for his price tag? Scott has the length off the tee to contend, but […]

Sungjae Im Struggling With Approach Play

Before the past two events, Sungjae Im had only missed one cut all season. After two weekends off for the first time in 11 months, Im heads to a challenging course with one of his biggest weapons missing. For the year, Im ranks No. 79 in strokes gained on approach, but the last two weeks […]

Patrick Cantlay Trending Toward Another Memorial Win

It shouldn't be, but Patrick Cantlay's prolific start to the season has been overshadowed by the success of other golfers. Cantlay doesn't have the multiple wins Jon Rahm or Scottie Scheffler can claim, but he's been consistent and elite this year. Since the redesign of Muirfield Village after the 2020 tournament, Cantlay has won and […]

Sam Stevens Worth A Shot At Charles Schwab

Sam Stevens has had a really solid rookie season on the PGA Tour. A few podium finishes highlight how well he has played, but his best result came during an event in Texas last month. Stevens was born in Fort Worth, where Colonial is located, but moved to Kansas, where he lives now. He got […]

Is It Safe To Start Ryan Palmer In Texas?

The play Ryan Palmer during the Texas tournaments narrative might have made a comeback. In the midst of a rough run of form, Palmer finished T8 at the Byron Nelson two weeks ago. More importantly, he appeared to find something with his putter. After a brutal stretch this season where he's been one of the […]

Maverick McNealy In A Major Slump

Maverick McNealy is the best putter on the PGA Tour, but that hasn't been enough to save him this season. As good as McNealy is on the greens, he's been equally as bad off the tee and from the rough. He is outside the top 150 in both ball-striking stats and has lost strokes putting […]

Major Concerns About Davis Riley At Colonial

With every week the season continues, Davis Riley's win looks even weirder. Riley won the team event last month, but nothing about his form suggests he should be in any DFS lineups. That win was surrounded by a withdrawal and four missed cuts, and he is losing strokes in every part of his game. The […]
