Injury Concerns Surround Henrik Stenson
6 years agoA nagging elbow injury continues to be a concern for Henrik Stenson. The Swede was forced to withdraw from the Scottish Open last month and hasn't seemed quite as sharp in his subsequent tournament appearances. Stenson finished tied for 35th in the Open Championship and managed a T39 at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational while fighting through the injury. While those are decent results, they don't match the elite level that Stenson has played at throughout 2018. The best ball striker in the world will try to continue a streak of five consecutive top-25 finishes in the PGA Championship at Bellerive this week. It is a course that should set up well for his game. The elbow injury takes Stenson out of DFS cash game consideration and makes him a GPP-only option.
