Harold Varner A Decent Option At Detroit Golf Club
3 years agoWhile fantasy managers should be dubious of Harold Varner's elite upside, he does deserve at least some consideration based on last week's ball-striking performance. The East Carolina product gained 6.9 strokes on approach at the Travelers Championship, good for his best performance of the 2021 season. With rankings of 12th in opportunities gained and fifth in proximity from 125-150 yards over his last 36 rounds, Varner should have an abundance of scoring opportunities this week at Detroit Golf Club. With that being said, his lack of PGA Tour wins has a lot to do with his inability to make enough putts down the stretch. Varner only has two starts this year where he has gained over three strokes putting. The Ohio native feels like a safe bet to record a middling finish this week at the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
