Sam Burns has struggled to start the year, with three missed cuts through five events, though he has also registered a T6 finish at Pebble Beach. His usually reliable putter has been anything but that, sitting 70th on tour in strokes gained putting (+0.171 per round), a number heavily influenced by gaining nearly 5.2 strokes on the green in his opening round at Pebble Beach. He looks to get something going at THE PLAYERS, where he has competed five times, with his best result being a T26 in 2022. Burns ranks just 135th in driving accuracy, 69th in total driving, and 105th in strokes gained on approach (-0.125). He also sits 64th in proximity from 125-150 yards and 94th from 150-175, ranges that accounted for 36.5% of approach shots here last year. Burns typically makes up for his lack of elite ball-striking with a strong putter, but it hasn't been as sharp this season. Despite this, he still offers upside with the flat stick that could push him above others in this range, making him a high-risk, high-reward option.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller
