Thorbjorn Olesen Could Be One To Watch At Sedgefield

Thorbjorn Olesen is coming off an impressive top-15 finish at the Olympics last week in Paris. The Danish golfer has made the cut in six of his last seven tournaments (Olympics had no cut). Expected rainy weather will slow the greens down. Olesen is no stranger to inclement conditions, though, as evidenced by The Open […]

Chez Reavie Tries To Go Out On High Note

Chez Reavie ranks 157th in the FedEx standings with 161 points. The American golfer, now 42, has struggled to make cuts at higher caliber tournaments. Most recently, at the 3M Open, Reavie barely managed to stay under par after 36 holes. Rain and breezy conditions are expected for the first two days of the Wyndham […]

Nicolas Echavarria Could Surprise At The Olympics

Nicolas Echavarria has a few good results in 2024. The Colombian golfer has a Top 10 at the Zurich Classic and has shown the ability to make some birdies. Without the specter of the cut line, Echavarria carries a little more potential than normal. He can implode mightily like at the Valero (82-77), but the […]

Marty Dou Could Find The Albatross Too Tough

Marty Dou has not enjoyed the best 2024 season. In eight PGA events, the Chinese golfer has missed five cuts. Worse, Dou has a difficult time keeping his drives in the fairway (58.99% accuracy). His scoring average of 70.00 is okay. Unfortunately, he averages 30 putts per round far too often in tournaments. The bright […]

David Puig Attempting To Make Name For Himself In Paris

David Puig has two wins on the Asian Tour. The Spanish golfer went to Arizona State University and won two Southwest Invitational events. As a professional, he joined the LIV Golf Tour in 2022. His team Torque won four events in 2023. This is his first Olympic appearance. However, Puig has played in several major […]

Matthieu Pavon Can Lurk At Major Events

Matthieu Pavon has a knack for staying in major events. The French golfer gets to play a course near and dear to his heart. This is one of those weeks where Pavon is a very reasonable DFS option. Pavon finished fifth at the U.S. Open and 12th at The Masters. His overall strokes gained and […]

Nick Taylor Looks For Good Result At Olympics

Nick Taylor had a win and a few quality finishes early in 2024. The Canadian golfer triumphed at Phoenix in a playoff. Ever since the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, Taylor has not finished in the Top 25. That involves a span of eight tournaments and four missed cuts. Again, the good news is with […]

Stephan Jaeger A Little Up And Down Since Houston Win

Stephan Jaeger expected a little more from the summer season. The German golfer missed the cut at the Rocket Mortgage Classic and The Open Championship. Jaeger aims to get things back together on the Olympic course at Guyancourt. Le Golf National features the famous L'Albatros which has a four-hole ending that ranks as one of […]

Yechun Yuan Trying To Find His Game At Olympics

Some will argue that a struggling golfer like Yechun Yuan may have a long weekend at the Summer Olympics. The Chinese golfer has one Top 25 since a tied for fifth at The Valspar Championship in March. Yuan has never won a title in 54 PGA events. One of the major reasons for Yuan's issue […]

Michael Kim Attempts To Right His Struggles At 3M Open

Michael Kim has missed the last two cuts in stroke play events. The American golfer has made 12 of 21 cuts in 2024. He has seven Top 25 results and even a Top 10. However, there are so many misses to go along with his positive stats. One of his biggest problems is driving accuracy. […]

Taylor Moore Recovering From Scottish Downturn

Taylor Moore did not have the best of times over in Scotland. Links golf proved to be too much for the American golfer as he missed the cut at both events. The Open Championship saw Moore shoot a 78 and things improved little after a Friday 74. Now, at least, Moore has the chance to […]

Austin Eckroat Relieved Majors Portion Of Schedule Is Over

Austin Eckroat won the Cognizant Classic in Florida at the end of March. Since then, the American golfer has had a few more downs than ups. This is especially true when it comes to the major tournaments, Eckroat missed the cut at The Masters, finished 18th at the PGA, blew up on the weekend at […]

Neal Shipley Now Among The Pros For The 3M Open

Neal Shipley turned pro days after setting the low amateur mark at the US Open. It was the second time the American golfer did that in a major (Masters). Shipley's story is quite impressive considering how he fared at the PGA University (ranked 48th). Shipley, to his credit, kept persevering. He found a way to […]

Seamus Power Has Potential For A Good Result

Seamus Power did not play in The Open Championship. The Irish golfer did not crack the Top 50 at the Genesis Scottish Open. Now, the week off hopefully helps his slightly below average putting. Power ranks 116th in strokes gained to putting at -0.127. Worse, his birdie conversion percentage ranks 124th and his 1.775 putting […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Drops Outside Of Top 10 Sunday

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. kept finding himself pretty close to the contending pack on Sunday afternoon. The JTG Daugherty Racing driver accumulated a total of six stage points. He was ninth after Stage 1 and seventh after Stage 2. Stenhouse Jr. began the race in ninth and never did lead a lap in the race. He […]

Carson Hocevar Ends Up 12th At Indianapolis

Carson Hocevar proved on Sunday that it is not where you start, it is where you finish. Hocevar and his Spire Motorsports Chevy began the Brickyard 400 from the 30th position. After 160 laps and seven laps of overtime, he finished 12th. That +18 place differential turned some heads. He survived most of the carnage […]

Cody Ware Near Back Of The Field Again Sunday

Cody Ware will begin the Brickyard 400 from the 36th position on Sunday afternoon. Rick Ware Racing fields two cars and they are 35th and 36th respectively in this field.

Ryan Preece A Little Slow Leading Up To Indianapolis

Ryan Preece lacked the speed off the corners at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Preece and his Stewart-Haas Racing car qualified 31st for the Brickyard 400. The Ford lost several tenths of a second off Turns 3 and 4 alone. A lack of acceleration had a ripple effect as the runs went on. Preece was 35th […]

Daniel Hemric Continues To Lag In Indianapolis

Daniel Hemric did not have the best of qualifying efforts or practices at Indianapolis. The Kaulig Racing driver starts Sunday's Brickyard 400 from the 32nd position. There is little hope of place differential. However, maybe some attrition could remedy that problem. The No. 31 Chevy ran 31st in practice a full 1.124 seconds off the […]

Austin Dillon Starts Just Outside The Top 10

Austin Dillon nearly made the final cut in qualifying on Saturday. Richard Childress Racing had to be happy as the No. 3 car showed a lot of speed at times. His best lap was 0.279 seconds off the time of Tyler Reddick. Even in practice, Dillon ended up in the Top 15 with a time […]

Chase Briscoe Top Qualifying Stewart-Haas Car

Chase Briscoe still only qualified in the middle of the pack at Indianapolis. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver will begin 20th for the Brickyard 400 on Sunday afternoon. His practice speed was below average. Briscoe was well above 51 seconds in his lap time and did not run more than five laps. His qualifying lap was […]

Tom Hoge A Bit Inconsistent The Past Several Events

Tom Hoge has had some good and bad results the past couple of months. The American golfer started well at The Memorial before fading. He missed the cut at the US Open and Genesis Scottish Open. The odd thing is that Hoge shot a 62 in the final round at The Travelers Championship. Hoge ended […]

Kurt Kitayama Trying To Make The Cut At The Open

Kurt Kitayama has stuggled in his time playing at The Open Championship. The American golfer has missed a few cuts and barely made it a few times. Kitayama's 2024 season has been frustrating. He rebounded after an awful missed cut at the US Open to produce two Top 35 results. It was not great but […]

Ryan Fox Looking To Find Rhythm At Royal Troon

Ryan Fox has been a little bit off the past several tournaments. The New Zealand golfer cracked the Top 10 at the RBC Canadian Open for the third time in 2024. However, Fox has struggled since. He finished outside the Top 50 in three consecutive tournaments. The bright side is Fox has made seven straight […]

Akshay Bhatia Rolling Into The Open Championship

Akshay Bhatia picked the right time to heat up. The American golfer has consecutive Top 5 finishes including a tied for second at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. He played well enough to stay in contention at the US Open in June. Bhatia has had an interesting 2024 as he heads over to play at The […]

Taylor Moore Needs To Get Off To Better Start

Taylor Moore heads to The Open Championship off a missed cut. The American golfer shot an opening round 75 last Thursday. Although he followed that up with a 68, Moore did not see the weekend. Links golf is a different beast as the golfer learned quickly. Last year at Royal Liverpool, Moore shot a +4 […]

Joey Logano Finishes Fifth At Pocono On Sunday

Joey Logano qualified 10th for the race at Pocono on Sunday, and the Team Penske driver ended up leading three laps. However, in the end, Logano and his No. 22 Ford had to settle for fifth place. Logano stands 10th in the playoff picture, as the Ford did not have the clean running speed to […]

William Byron Still Ends Up In Top Five At Pocono

William Byron started The Great American Getaway 400 from outside of Row 1 on Sunday. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver dropped a mere two spots after 160 laps. Byron never could get close enough to the leaders on Sunday. He did not lead a single lap but him and his team played the pit strategy […]

Cody Ware Near The Back Of The Field For Sunday Race

Cody Ware begins 35th for Sunday's The Great American Getaway 400. Pocono is a unique intermediate 2.5-mile track and the Rick Ware Racing driver qualified just behind teammate Justin Haley. It seems the Ford who qualified more than 1.25 seconds off the time of Ty Gibbs, just lacked entrance and exit speed in the turns. […]

Zane Smith Breaks Into Top 10 For Pocono Race

Zane Smith surprised many on Saturday. The Spire Motorsports driver got into the final round of qualifying. Smith ended up ninth overall just ahead of drivers like Joey Logano and Chase Elliott. The No, 71 car was outside the Top 20 in practice but delivered enough good qualifying laps to begin inside Row 5 on […]
