Michael Thorbjornsen Brings High Upside to CJ Cup Byron Nelson
Michael Thorbjornsen has been solid this year, posting five top-25 finishes and just four missed cuts through 13 events. He now turns to the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, where he finished T33 last year in his only previous start. Success at TPC Craig Ranch typically comes down to strong off-the-tee play and approach shots with long irons, both areas where he has been strong. Thorbjornsen ranks 55th in strokes gained off the tee (+0.196 per round) and 13th in proximity from over 200 yards (47'2"), a range that accounted for more than 39% of approach shots here last year. There are still a couple of concerns, including the putter, where he has lost strokes in three of his last four events, as well as on approach, where he ranks 108th on Tour (-0.129 per round). Despite this, he brings strong upside in a weak field and profiles as a solid play at $9,000 on DraftKings.
