Daniel Suarez Has Upside At Coca-Cola 600

Daniel Suarez is truly a risk-reward DFS option when it comes to Charlotte and the Coca-Cola 600. Last year, the Trackhouse Racing driver led 36 laps and even won Stage 2 of the 400-lap race. Then, an accident ruined his night dropping him to 25th. If Suarez can find that late-run speed, he can easily […]

Aric Almirola Stuck In Middle Of The Pack For Charlotte

Aric Almirola will begin the Coca-Cola 600 from 23rd at Charlotte. Almirola and his Stewart-Haas Racing car have not finished inside the top ten over the past four races on the intermediate track. His best finish during that span is 15th. However, his worst result is 22nd. So, in a way, it makes sense Almirola […]

Joey Logano Tries To Bounce Back From Charlotte Mishap

An accident claimed Joey Logano and his Team Penske car last year. Logano's No. 22 Ford gained some serious momentum and even led nine laps.

Martin Truex Jr. Wants To Turn Back Clock At Charlotte

There was a time when Martin Truex Jr. was Kyle Larson dominant at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Justin Haley Might Have Challenge At Charlotte

Justin Haley and his Kaulig Racing car have not fared well at Charlotte. He does start 16th this time around. Haley's first two appearances resulted in an average finish of 27.5. Haley could not even finish inside the top 20 or start there for that matter. The No. 31 Chevy has shown a few more […]

Harrison Burton and his Wood Brothers Racing car need results. He starts 13th at Charlotte this weekend and the No. 21 Ford has one top ten in 13 races. That translates to being 30th in the points standings. Burton did finish 11th last year in Charlotte after starting 17th. He rode for awhile in the […]

Kyle Larson Fast And Furious At Charlotte

Kyle Larson draws the 12th position after metrics for the Coca-Cola 600. That may not be a bad thing for the No. 5 car. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing car may not lead quite as many laps. However, the 400-lap Charlotte race will give him ample opportunities. After all, Larson has led 48.4% of the laps […]

Chris Buescher Risky But Could Provide Reward

Chris Buescher finished eighth at Charlotte two years ago. Last year, Buescher was running close to the top ten when an accident wrecked his Coca-Cola 600 chances.

Ryan Blaney gets some help for Charlotte as the Team Penske driver starts from the eighth position.

Kyle Busch In Interesting Position For Charlotte

Kyle Busch has one 29th place finish and three top five results at Charlotte since 2020. He starts the Coca-Cola 600 fifth and figures to move up. The RFK Racing driver has done everything but win post-COVID on this 1.5-mile track. How fast will the No. 8 Chevy be when the green flag drops? That's […]

Denny Hamlin Starts Fourth For Coca-Cola 600

Denny Hamlin and his Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota start at Charlotte from the fourth position this weekend. Hamlin did not have the fastest car last year until the final laps.

Brad Keselowski Rides Metric Wave At Charlotte

Brad Keselowski got a boost from the metrics and begins third at Charlotte for the Coca-Cola 600. Keselowski started 35th and never got going last year ending up 30th.

Garrick Higgo May Have Challenge At Charles Schwab

Some were encouraged by Garrick Higgo and how he performed at the Byron Nelson a couple of weeks ago. The South African golfer nudged himself into the top-30 after a final-round 65. That was Higgo's first top-30 since a 29th at The Honda Classic back in February. Higgo is only 24 and apt to mistakes. […]

Vincent Norrman Showing Form As Charles Schwab Looms

Vincent Norrman is a young Swedish golfer getting a handle on the PGA Tour early. It is hard to believe Norrman is 25-years-old. His OWGR will not be 301 for long. At the Byron Nelson, the golfer notched his second top-ten result in his last three events. Also, he shot four rounds in the 60's […]

Denny McCarthy May Have Warm Putter In Texas

Denny McCarthy started to get things moving during the final round of the PGA Championship. His final round 68 made few wonder what might have been if not for that opening round 75. McCarthy ranks 12th in strokes gained from putting at 0.608. At Oak Hill, that number was mostly negative until Sunday. The Charles […]

Justin Rose Staying Consistent

Justin Rose not getting rattled has served the English golfer well. The PGA Championship was trying in the most changeable of conditions.

Tony FInau To Try And Rebound At Charles Schwab

So Tony Finau just never got going at Oak Hill. The American golfer saved his worst for Sunday with a 77 where nothing went right. It was one of those weeks. Again, there are times when the numbers do not align with the results. While Finau may not crack the top ten, it is safe […]

Sam Burns Still Up And Down Heading To PGA Championship

Sam Burns has quite a lot of talent. The American golfer won the WGC Match Play in March beating an impressive field. However, Burns had that 78 on Saturday at the Masters which dropped him out of contention. He did not play well at The Players Championship but survived. Too many tournaments see Burns squander […]

Jon Rahm Is Among The Favorites At PGA Championship

Jon Rahm has been on quite a roll in 2023. He has four wins in 11 tournaments and eight top-ten results. The Spanish golfer won the Masters in a way that was sweeping television.

Denny McCarthy Finds Ways To Stay Among Contenders

Denny McCarthy has missed a few cuts but when he does not, the American golfer usually nets a top-25 or better result.
