Billy Horschel Remains An Uncertain Entity
10 months agoAfter a seven-start stretch from July to January that saw Billy Horschel record five finishes of 20th or better, last week's missed cut at the American Express poured a bit of cold water on his projected resurgence. There will be no rest for the weary this week at Torrey Pines, however, as Horschel will make his third consecutive start at a venue that routinely ranks as one of the most difficult on the PGA Tour. Horschel has experienced a fair amount of success around Torrey Pines: Recording three finishes of 11th or better in seven starts since 2016. On the surface, a 7,800-yard golf course with poa annua greens doesn't profile as the optimal course fit, but Billy has shown us on many occasions that he's capable of mixing it up on tracks that conventional wisdom would tell you are over his head entirely. I remain cautiously optimistic about his prospects this week.
