Can Taylor Pendrith Repeat His Play At Rocket Mortgage?

Taylor Pendrith appears to be a perfect fit for the Rocket Mortgage and his one start suggests so. Last year, Pendrith posted a T2 finish and played as well as he can. For Pendrith to have success on the PGA Tour, he needs to drive the ball well and make a lot of putts. Pendrith's […]

Can Mark Hubbard Hang At Rocket Mortgage?

Previous winners of this event include elite drivers of the golf ball, like Tony Finau, Cameron Davis, and Matthew Wolff. Mark Hubbard is not one of those types of players that can launch the ball off the tee. Hubbard averages 284 yards per drive, which does not fit the profile for this course. Hubbard has […]

Rocket Mortgage Presents Perfect Chance For Justin Suh

Generally, it's worrying when a player is heavily reliant on their putting. However, this week is one of the events where a hot putter will go a long way. Justin Suh has gained strokes on the green for seven straight events and ranks No. 8 on the PGA Tour in strokes gained putting this season. […]

Chris Kirk Continues To Struggle

After an elite start to the season, Chris Kirk has officially hit a serious slump. The Honda Classic winner has missed three straight cuts and every week another part of his game is the problem. It all starts with issues off the tee for Kirk and goes from there. His iron play has been rough, […]

Can Joseph Bramlett Break Through At Rocket Mortgage?

The Rocket Mortgage seems like a perfect course fit for Joseph Bramlett. With Bramlett's ability to bomb the ball off the tee and the course allowing for inaccuracy, solid starts would be expected. Instead, Bramlett has missed the cut in three trips. Bramlett doesn't putt the ball well, but he's been a near-zero putter at […]

Can Kevin Yu Keep Up At Rocket Mortgage?

In his few PGA Tour starts this season, Kevin Yu has been one of the best ball strikers but one of the worst putters. In Yu's only top-10 finish in a full-field event, he just needed to gain 0.02 strokes on the green to post a T7 at Pebble Beach. Last week was his first […]

Dylan Wu Continues To Make Cuts At Low Cost

Dylan Wu made the cut at the U.S. Open and is only $7,000 on DraftKings in Detroit. Wu has posted five top-25 finishes this season and has consistently been incorrectly priced on DraftKings. He isn't dominant in any category but is consistent across the board. When Wu missed cuts it's because his putter has struggled, […]

Brandon Wu Could Be In For Another Big Week

Brandon Wu either finishes inside the top 25 or doesn't make the weekend. While that's not the ideal situation to insert a player into lineups, the upside Wu offers just isn't there for other players in the $7,000 range on DraftKings. Wu has three top-10 finishes this season and has the talent to go low, […]

Can Brian Harman Find His Form At A Favorite Course?

Brian Harman will reveal the answer to the argument of whether current form or course history is more important this week. Harman's form has been poor since January outside of a T7 at the RBC Heritage. That course sets up similarly to Travelers, which is why Harman has such good history at the event. Harman […]

Min Woo Lee Worth A Start At Travelers

When Min Woo Lee broke onto the PGA Tour scent at The Players, it began a string of bad approach play that lasted for six events. Over Lee's last two starts, that trend has changed completely. If Lee can be a positive player with his irons in addition to his elite off-the-tee and around-the-green skills, […]

Harris English Heavily Reliant On His Putter

Harris English has great course history at the Travelers, including a 2021 win, but his statistical profile makes it hard to trust him this week. English has three top-10 finishes this season but has needed elite putting to do so. English gained over two strokes with his putter, which is tough to rely on weekly. […]

Russell Henley A Perfect Fit For Travelers

There are very few course fits that profile better for a player than Russell Henley at the Travelers. Henley doesn't hit the ball far off the tee, but his ball-striking accuracy is elite. Henley's putter has held him back this year, but it's been trending toward a positive and he's gained in three of five […]

Si Woo Kim Continues Solid Stretch Of Play

Major championship tournaments are probably not the place to play Si Woo Kim. While Kim is an accurate ball striker, he struggles with his short game and the elite events require an all-around skill set. Outside of a missed cut at the PGA Championship and a T39 at the U.S. Open, Kim has been on […]

Be Aware Of Adam Scott's Driver Accuracy At Travelers

For most of the year, Adam Scott's approach play has held him back while the rest of his game has been among the best. While Scott has continued to struggle with his irons, the bigger issue this week is his driver. Scott brings elite distance off the tee but is among the worst on Tour […]

Approach-Play Trends Troubling For Shane Lowry

For most of this season, Shane Lowry has been an elite ball-striker but has struggled with his short game. Over the past two weeks, Lowry's short game has improved, but his approach play has dipped. After Lowry gained strokes on approach in every event since April, he has lost strokes there in the past two […]

Sungjae Im Continues To Struggle

Sungjae Im has been one of the PGA Tour's most consistent players since his debut. Unfortunately for Im, since his win in Korea last month he has been consistently bad. Im has missed three of his last four cuts and has lost strokes in three of those events. His approach numbers have been brutal and […]

How Will Wyndham Clark Respond After U.S. Open Win?

After his first PGA Tour win, Wyndham Clark missed the cut at the PGA Championship the following week. That course rewarded accuracy off the tee, which is not something that is part of Clark's game. Once again, the Travelers asked for accuracy from the driver and doesn't reward distance very much. Despite saying that, Clark […]

Can Patrick Cantlay Crack The Top 10 In Connecticut?

Patrick Cantlay has played the Travelers Championship consistently over the years and posted some solid finishes. Since 2018 Cantlay has finished between 11th and 15th, and his statistics have been great. However, as one of the highest-priced golfers a top-15 finish isn't going to cut it. Around-the-green play has held Cantlay back this year during […]

Short-Game Struggles A Concern For Sam Stevens

Sam Stevens has no issues with his ball-striking, but the second half of his game is a cause for concern this week. All reports from the U.S. Open have warned that the rough around the greens will give golfers trouble when they miss the green. Stevens has struggled with his short game this season, and […]

Hard To Trust Brian Harman At U.S. Open

For Brian Harman to compete against elite fields, he needs to be finding the fairway, landing balls on the green, and making putts. Very few of those things are happening for Harman right now, and that's a real problem. Harman nearly lost three strokes on approach at the Memorial, which has been the case at […]

Patrick Rodgers' Approach Play Remains Unpredictable

Patrick Rodgers has the skills to win on the PGA Tour but hasn't been able to put it all together over four rounds. Rodgers has been consistent off the tee and around the green, but the approach play has held him back. Rodgers has been streaky this season on approach and is one event removed […]

Chris Kirk Struggling To Find Consistent Form

Chris Kirk was elite to start the season, but since his win, it's been all over the place. At times the putter has failed him, while in other events his ball striking has struggled. For Kirk to compete, he needs to be accurate with his driver, hit a lot of greens with solid approach play, […]

Russell Henley A Real Value At U.S. Open

Russell Henley doesn't fit the mold of the golfer that would be expected to have success at the U.S. Open. He loses strokes off the tee at times due to his limited distance, but he's the most accurate driver on the PGA Tour. That number combined with his elite approach play profiles as a solid […]

Harris English Trending Up Headed Into U.S. Open

Harris English has been solid with his short game this season, but the ball striking just wasn't there. Over the past five events, English has started to hit the ball better and get more chances to climb leaderboards. English's only missed cut came at the PGA Championship where he uncharacteristically lost strokes in both short-game […]

Si Woo Kim A Good Fit For Los Angeles Country Club

Outside of his putting, Si Woo Kim has been really solid this season. He has three top-10 finishes in the past two months and all of them coincide with improved putting performances. Kim is coming off a fourth-place finish at the Memorial where he barely lost strokes on the green. This U.S. Open requires great […]

Taylor Moore Trending Toward Another Rough Event

After his win in March, Taylor Moore has been on a weird run of form. Besides a week where he made every putt at the RBC Heritage, Moore has struggled. Moore made the cut at The Masters and the PGA Championship in his first two majors, but he hasn't played particularly well. Heading into the […]

Which Wyndham Clark Will Show Up At U.S. Open?

Outside of the PGA Championship, Wyndham Clark has been one of the best players on the PGA Tour. That strong play culminated in his first win at the Wells Fargo Championship and unfortunately for him the next week was the PGA Championship. Clark missed his first cut since October, so it was easy to shrug […]

Adam Scott A Solid Start At U.S. Open

The only aspect of Adam Scott's game that hasn't been elite this season is his approach play. After a brutal stretch of iron play to begin the year, Scott appears to have figured things out lately. In his last four events, Scott has either gained or barely lost strokes on approach. Despite losing strokes in […]

Sungjae Im A Solid Pivot Play At U.S. Open

Sungjae Im is one of the most consistent players on the PGA Tour, so it was shocking to see him struggle so much in May. After an uncharacteristic pair of missed cuts last month, Im returned with a T41 at the Memorial, but his stats looked a lot better. Im has the all-around game to […]

Shane Lowry Struggles Again At RBC Canadian Open

Shane Lowry just can't seem to string together a run of solid events. After it appeared Lowry had fixed his short-game struggles headed into last week, Lowry had another rough week. The Irishman struggled around the greens again but also lost strokes on approach. Lowry has been elite with his ball-striking this season, but it […]
