Sungjae Im Looking To Keep Strong Play Going At TPC Deere Run
5 months agoOutside the Majors, Sungjae Im has been on a great run going back to the RBC Heritage. Since that T12 finish, the South Korean hasn't finished outside the top 10 in any non-major tournament. He has shown the ability to play well at tough venues, which makes his poor performances on the biggest stages so shocking. But his tie for third at the Travelers also suggests he can hang with the world's best on birdie-fest tracks that force players to play from similar positions like we have this week. His 102nd rank on tour in strokes gained on approach (-0.035) is not indicative of where he is in terms of his iron play right now, as he was 4th in the field in Connecticut for strokes gained on approach. At $11,600 on FanDuel, he is as safe as they come for this extremely-weak field.
