Colonial Country Club Is A Good Fit For Chez Reavie
6 years agoChez Reavie rolls into the Charles Schwab Challenge off of a share of 14th place during last week's PGA Championship. Typically, we would discredit a result if we saw a golfer gain 7.1 strokes putting in the previous event. That is not a sustainable total, and we should expect to see some regression to the mean happen the next time that player tees it up. However, Reavie's irons were also sharp, gaining 3.2 strokes over his four rounds en route to his best-ever major championship showing. As one might expect, the lengthy layout caused the 37-year-old to lose 2.3 strokes off the tee, but I believe when you factor in the inevitable backslide he will have on the greens with the improvement he will see off the tee at a shorter venue, you are left with a golfer who is in form and ready to strike. The 59th-ranked player in the world is projected to be popular at 13 percent owned, but we find it difficult to fade the American at a venue that should suit his game.
