Tyler Duncan Trending Up In 2024
11 months agoTyler Duncan is worth keeping an eye on at the Sony Open this week. The 34-year-old Purdue University alum is certainly not a household name, but he is arguably playing the best stretch of golf in his six-year PGA Tour career. He racked up three top-20 results in his five fall swing starts, including a T16 at Sanderson Farms, T18 and the Shriners, and most recently T3 at the RSM. Duncan ranks 10th in the field in driving accuracy and 18th in strokes gained off-the-tee, both of which will be crucial at a course with the third biggest missed fairway penalty on tour. He's also uncharacteristically gained strokes putting in seven of his last nine events. Duncan may be a sneaky play in $6,000 DraftKings range despite his abysmal course history at Waialae.
