Jason Kokrak Checks All The Boxes This Week
3 years agoComing off a win in his last start at the Charles Schwab Challenge, Jason Kokrak projects to be an extremely popular play this week. Some would suggest his price has not yet been correctly adjusted for his level of play, and fantasy managers will look to take advantage of that once again at this week's U.S. Open. It's hard to argue with Kokrak from a statistical standpoint, as the big-hitting Ontario native ranks 20th in strokes gained off the tee, 26th in strokes gained on approach, 13th in driving distance and 12th in proximity from 200-plus yards in his last 36 rounds. Kokrak's elite distance and long-iron player should translate perfectly to Torrey Pines, yet fantasy managers will need to be weary of his ownership. Kokrak is a fine play if fantasy managers are willing to mix it up with their lineups in other places.
