Ryan Moore Rides Into Hilton Head Jockeying For Position
6 years agoWhile Ryan Moore has only played at Harbour Town once in the past five years, the venue is an ideal fit for his game. A 16th-place finish last season shows a bit of what his upside could be at Hilton Head, and his experience in the wind should suit his chances this weekend. A graduate of UNLV, Moore is used to playing in Las Vegas' blustery conditions and should find South Carolina's coastal track to be nothing out of the ordinary. The 36-year-old enters the week ranked 12th compared to the field in strokes gained approach and 21st in strokes gained putting. His ability to create opportunities and make the most of them with his flat stick should be on full display all week, and the five-time PGA Tour winner is slightly underpriced on DraftKings when we consider all those factors. His $8,100 price tag places him as the 21st most expensive player, which helps to explain his nearly 18.4 percent projected ownership. We have to be careful with overexposing ourselves with an overabundance of public plays, but Moore's upside will make him difficult to ignore this weekend.
