Cameron Smith Has a Disappointing Weekend at the RBC Heritage

Cameron Smith entered Saturday at six-under par and was well within striking distance of the leaders. By the time Saturday had come to an end, Smith's hopes of capturing his first win on the PGA Tour were over. His 74 three-over par round was full of mistakes. Smith lost negative-3.145 strokes tee to green, which […]

Si Woo Kim Lets One Get Away at the RBC Heritage

Si Woo Kim had to settle for second place at the RBC Heritage after a shaky finish on his back nine. Kim was at 15-under par when he entered the 12th hole and had a couple stroke advantage in hand over the field. After a bogey on 12 took him to 14-under par, that is […]

Satoshi Kodaira Gets His Breakthrough Win at the RBC Heritage

Satoshi Kodaira nabbed his maiden victory on the PGA Tour this weekend at the RBC Heritage when he defeated Si Woo Kim in a sudden-death playoff. After both players made par on the first two playoff holes, Kodaira nailed a 24-foot putt for birdie at the third to capture the title. Kodaira's career-low round of […]

Gary Woodland's Masters Woes Continue

For the third straight year, Gary Woodland has missed the cut at the Masters. Woodland's tournament was done before it even got started. After bogeying five of his first six holes in his opening round on Thursday, Woodland was never able to get out of reverse for the rest of the week. Woodland has not […]

Kiradech Aphibarnrat Has an Amazing Recovery at the Masters

Kiradech Aphibarnrat has to wonder what could have been if it wasn't for his meltdown performance on Thursday at the Masters. His T44 showing doesn't even begin to explain what exactly happened. Aphibarnrat shot a seven-over in his opening round, eliminating himself from real contention, but managed to bounce back the next three days to […]

Francesco Molinari Posts Another Respectable Showing at a Major

Francesco Molinari shot a two-under at the 2018 Masters to finish tied for 20th. Molinari, who is very short with his driver, manages to find his name near the top of all participants every weekend when it comes to strokes gained off the tee and strokes gained tee to green. It is a bit of […]

Rafael Cabrera-Bello Had an Up-and-Down Showing at the Masters

Rafael Cabrera-Bello had a modest showing at this year's Masters, shooting a three-over while finishing tied for 38th. Cabrera-Bello was a bit all over the place throughout the four days. He finished with 17 birdies, 16 bogeys, two double-bogeys and 37 pars. His birdie production was a nice buffer for his 38th-place finish, but his […]

Adam Hadwin Withdraws From the RBC Heritage

There was no reason given for the withdrawal, but Adam Hadwin has withdrawn from this weekend's event. This is a tough break for Hadwin, who entered this week as one of the most in-form golfers in the world. Hadwin's departure will open up a spot in the field for first alternate Sam Ryder. Hadwin was […]

Si Woo Kim Looks to Build On a Great Weekend at the Masters

After a slow start on Thursday and Friday of 75 73, respectively, Si Woo Kim shot a 68 and 71 on Saturday and Sunday to launch himself up the leaderboard at the 2018 Masters. His one-under finish tied him for 24th place. The often unpredictable Kim had a rather steady four days, all things considered. […]

Jason Dufner Misses Augusta Cut in Grueling Fashion

Jason Dufner's Friday at Augusta did not go according to plan. Dufner arrived at Hole 11 at one-over par, but that is where things collapsed. He bogeyed 11, double-bogeyed 12, managed to birdie 13, double-bogeyed one of the easiest holes on the course at 15 and bogeyed 17 to finish at six-over par, missing the […]

Dylan Frittelli Stumbles in Masters Debut

The 50th-ranked golfer in the world, Dylan Frittelli, missed the cut at the 2018 Masters. Frittelli shot a 77 and 74 on Thursday and Friday, respectively, to finish at plus-seven. The Masters marked a second straight missed cut for Frittelli and the third straight event that he has lost strokes to the field -- tee […]

Cameron Smith Guarantees Himself a Third Masters Trip in 2019

After finishing tied for fifth at the 2018 Masters, Cameron Smith has guaranteed himself a spot in the 2019 Masters field. The top-12 finishers all lock up an invite into the following year's event. The 39th-ranked golfer in the world probably would have gotten there again under his own accord, but for the young 24-year-old […]

Adam Hadwin is a Real Threat to Take Home the Title This Week

Adam Hadwin is one of the most in-form golfers in the world right now. With 14 straight made cuts and four straight top-25s, Hadwin will look to continue his hot streak this week at the RBC Heritage. Hadwin's T24 at the Masters, in reality, could have been much better. After flirting with the top of […]

Satoshi Kodaira Posts Career-Best PGA Tour Finish

Satoshi Kodaira's T28 at the 2018 Masters represents his best finish on the PGA Tour ever. This week he will try to continue his upswing at the RBC Heritage. Kodaira comes into the tournament as the 46th-ranked golfer in the world, but only 11 players in the field have a lower DraftKings price tag than […]

Chez Reavie Makes His First Masters Cut

The fourth try happened to be the charm for Chez Reavie at the Masters. Reavie shot a 76, 71, 75 and 76 to finish at 10-over. His 53rd-place finish, unfortunately, resulted in last place out of all golfers who made the cut. This is the fifth straight tournament that Reavie has lost strokes around the […]

Erratic Temperament Gets the Best Of Thomas Pieters at the Masters

Thomas Pieters combined to shoot a plus-seven on Thursday and Friday to miss the 2018 Masters cut. Often riddled with temperament issues, Pieters put that well on display towards the end of his round on Friday. After a missed putt on 17, Pieters chucked his putter in frustration. On 18 he pulled his drive horribly […]

Kyle Stanley Makes the Cut but Still Disappoints

Kyle Stanley is now 5-for-13 for made cuts in majors. His plus-nine resulted in a 52nd-place finish. Stanley just could not quite get things going throughout the four days. His four rounds resulted in only seven birdies total and led to a dismal display for DFS purposes. His T39 at the 2012 Open Championship is […]

HaoTong Li Impresses in First Masters Appearance

HaoTong Li may not have kept the correlation between winning the Dubai Desert Classic and Masters alive, but he represented himself nicely by shooting a plus-one (tied for 32nd). For a short time on Thursday, Li saw himself in first place after he birdied the 16th hole to get to four-under. Unfortunately, his Friday did […]

Si Woo Kim Brings a Boom-Or-Bust Mentality

There are very few players on tour that are more erratic than Si Woo Kim. The 22-year-old South Korean won the 2017 Players Championship and proceeded to follow that up with four out of five missed cuts. For what it is worth, his one made cut in that stretch was a T13 at the 2017 […]

Jason Dufner is a Five-Star Boss

Anyone else enjoying Jason Dufner’s vast ensemble of hats he rolls out weekly? Sadly, his golf game hasn’t been up to par for us to be able to get more glimpses of him on the course. This will be Dufner’s eighth trip to Augusta National. He has seen middling success in his prior seven attempts, […]

Chez Reavie Looks to Break Masters Curse

Chez Reavie enters the 2018 Masters having missed the cut in his three other appearances in 2002, 2009 and 2012. Reavie was on a torrid pace, which started at the 2017 St. Jude Classic and lasted all the way into the AT&T Pro-Am of 2018. Through a 19-tournament stretch, Reavie produced 17 top-40 finishes, including […]

Dylan Frittelli to Make Masters Debut Appearance

One of the European Tour’s brightest new stars will get his first crack at the Masters. Only three men have ever won the Masters in their first try, with the last being Fuzzy Zoeller in 1979. Dylan Frittelli brings a unique blend of U.S. experience, having studied at The University of Texas, but also adds […]

Satoshi Kodaira Will Complete his Grand-Slam Debuts Here at Augusta

The last major can finally be crossed off the list for 28-year-old Satoshi Kodaira. He finished tied for 46th in last year's U.S. Open and T48 in last season's PGA Championship. His other two major appearances had come at The Open championship, where he missed the cut both times. U.S. soil has not been friendly […]

Long-Hitting Thomas Pieters Brings a Mixed Bag of Expectations

As far as Masters debuts go, Thomas Pieters' T4 last year is just about as good as it gets. He followed that up with a fourth-place finish at the WGC-Bridgestone. Unfortunately, those happened to be his only top-10 finishes of the PGA season. The rest of the season was marred with erratic results and quite […]

Cameron Smith Will Look to Use His Short Game as a Catalyst for Masters Success

Cameron Smith will get his second chance to take on Augusta after finishing tied for 55th in his only other appearance in 2016. Smith is by no means short off of the tee but he won’t be confused for one of the bombers either. He will look to use his immaculate short game to get […]

Kyle Stanley Will Try to Ignore Major Championship Demons

Kyle Stanley is one of the game's elite ball-strikers, but for whatever reason this has not translated into Major championship success. His only performance at the Masters resulted in a missed cut in 2012. In fact, Stanley throughout all majors is only 4-for-12 in made cuts and he doesn’t have better than a T39 to […]

Adam Hadwin Hopes to Build From Inaugural 2017 Masters Performance

Adam Hadwin got his first taste of Augusta last year, finishing tied for 36th. Thursday through Saturday provided a bit more helter skelter than he would have liked, shooting a 75-74-75, but he wrapped up Sunday with a nice, clean 70 to propel himself up the leaderboard. While Hadwin doesn’t have the distance off the […]

HaoTong Li Looks to Follow in the Footsteps of Danny Willet and Sergio Garcia

The Dubai Desert Classic has proven to be an indicator for Masters success. Danny Willet captured both titles in 2016 and Sergio Garcia did the same in 2017. Since his win in January, though, Li has done nothing but go the opposite direction. He has failed to produce a top-50 in his last five starts, […]
