In his last full season, Conners ranked second in greens-in-regulation at […]

Wyndham Clark Could Atone For Misses Of Weekend's Past

Wyndham Clark has played well enough to win the last two tournaments on the PGA Tour. However, the American golfer has faltered on Saturday and Sunday due to missed putts and errant shots on back-nines. Though he has gained 0.23 strokes putting on the Fall wraparound, that number is likely closer to one if the […]

Kevin Kisner is a huge wildcard heading into the RSM Classic this weekend in Georgia. After all, Kisner won the tournament in 2015 and finished second in 2020.

Patrick Rodgers Hopes For Friday Form From Last Week

Patrick Rodgers was good on Thursday and excellent on Friday at The Houston Open. He shot a 68 then a 63. After that the course turned a bit rough but his game wilted under the pressure. The 73-71 closing left him 11 strokes off the lead yet still tied for 16th. That gave him five […]

Denny McCarthy Hopes For A Better Weekend At RSM

Denny McCarthy could not get the putter or much of anything going for the weekend at The Houston Open. The American golfer tailed off after a very good opening round 67 on Thursday. The 75 on Sunday was just a punctuation mark to a bad three days. By Sunday, the driver was off, the iron […]

Taylor Montgomery Trying To Get Back On Track

Taylor Montgomery looked pretty good for the first two rounds of The Houston Open. Then Saturday happened. He shot a 76 and look frankly lost out there at times.

Sahith Theegala Up And Down So Far This Fall

What does one make of Sahith Theegala? The American golfer from Southern California has been up one tournament and down the next so far this Fall season. While his putting was pretty good two weeks ago, it was awful last week in Mexico. This is why Theegala only ranks 54th in putting at 0.404 strokes […]

Maverick McNealy Continuing To Contend This Fall

Maverick McNealy started draining a bunch of putts on Sunday en route to a 66 and another top-10 result this fall season.

William Byron did not have the ending to 2022 that he expected but does start eighth at Phoenix on Sunday. The No 24 Hendrick Motorsports Racing car has enjoyed far from a dull season. Also, Byron does have three top-ten results in his previous seven appearances on the mile-long course. Weather will not be an […]

Kevin Harvick And The Top Ten At Phoenix

Death, taxes, and Kevin Harvick finishing in the top ten at Phoenix are certainties in life. The Stewart-Haas Racing has done so 18 straight times. His 6.7 average finish is the best of all active drivers on the mile-long track. He has led 6.9% of the laps in the past seven races. Harvick's No. 4 […]

Chase Briscoe A Possibility At Phoenix

Way back in March, Chase Briscoe showed he had the closing speed and acceleration to win at Phoenix. Could it happen again? The Stewart-Haas Racing car started sixth and led 101 laps on his way to victory lane. There is little question the Next-Gen car favors a driver that takes risks like Briscoe. Everything is […]

Ryan Blaney Has Big Chance At Phoenix On Sunday

Ryan Blaney has been so close all year to winning a race. Despite that, the Team Penske Ford has a bagel next to the wins column. Blaney starts outside of Row 1 next to teammate Joey Logano on Sunday at Phoenix. The No. 12 car was leading after Stage 2 in March but settled for […]

Kyle Larson Starts Outside Row Two At Phoenix

Kyle Larson will be wondering what might have been for a long time. Larson is still in the Owners Title chase on Sunday. Plus, the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver begins fourth with eyes on crashing the party and winning the race. Larson won last November on the mile-long track to win his first NASCAR Championship. […]

Ross Chastain Has Long Way To The Top

Ross Chastain and his TrackHouse Racing car begins Sunday from 25th at Phoenix Raceway. Chastain was out of the "Championship Four" until he throttled the gas and wall surfed his way past Denny Hamlin in the playoff standings. What will he do this Sunday? Likely, Chastain will need a little help getting to the front. […]

Aaron Rai's Short Game Needs Work In Mexico

Aaron Rai has had some issues with his short game this fall. It has become one of the main reasons why the English golfer is so far back on the leaderboard. At Bermuda, the shorter course played havoc with his around-the-green game. Rai ranks 179th in that metric, losing almost 0.57 strokes. His sand-save percentage […]

Maverick McNealy missed the cut at his first tournament of the Fall but the American golfer has three straight top-20 results since. That includes a T-18th at The CJ Cup. The only slight problem in McNealy's game may be the final round. He shot a 71 in each of the last two tournaments holding him […]

Russell Henley Trying To Find Form At Mayakoba

Can Russell Henley find his form at Mayakoba? So far this Fall, the American golfer has missed the cut and barely broke Even par at The CJ Cup. That does not bode so well at El Camaleon as Henley's putting causes him to lose almost a full stroke. That ranks 184th on the tour in […]

Viktor Hovland Ready For Mayakoba This Week

Viktor Hovland has shown some good form in his first two Fall appearances on the PGA Tour. He had a tied for fifth then a T-21 at The CJ Cup in South Carolina. His putting has been okay so far but his drives have been excellent. Off the tee, the Norwegian golfer ranks 11th gaining […]

Kevin Harvick and his Stewart-Haas Ford will start eighth on Sunday at the Xfinity 500 in Martinsville.

[…]
