Si Woo Kim Is An Exceptional Pete Dye Player
6 years agoSi Woo Kim has played La Quinta once in his career, posting a share of ninth place in 2016, but the thing that is the most encouraging about Kim's potential this week is his success on Pete Dye-designed courses. The South Korean became the youngest player to win the Players Championship in 2017, capturing the title when he was only 21 years old and also just missed winning the 2018 RBC Heritage, losing in a playoff to Satoshi Kodaira. The volatility around Kim is undeniable, but the 23-year-old made 76.6 percent of his cuts in 2018, an increase of 10 percent from 2017. At $7,500 on DraftKings and under seven percent projected ownership, Kim provides immense GPP upside, although we would still avoid him in cash-games this weekend.
