Tommy Fleetwood Is Nearly A Must-Play At Valero Texas Open

It has been an incredible start to the season for Tommy Fleetwood, as he prepares for the year's first major next week at Augusta National. He's made six professional starts in 2025 and hasn't finished worse than T22. TPC San Antonio is a ball striker's golf course, with many narrow, undulating greens that force players […]

Tony Finau Hoping For Better Approach Play In San Antonio

Other than a couple of bright spots this season, Tony Finau is struggling to find success in the first half of the season. Most recently, he finished T32 last week in Houston and missed the cut at the Players Championship in the start before that. Approach play has dipped in recent weeks, as he lost […]

Eric Cole Trending In Right Direction Ahead Of Valero

It has been a productive last couple of weeks for Eric Cole, as the 36-year-old has had back-to-back top-15 finishes at the Valspar and last week in Houston. During that time, he's gained over six strokes on approach and four strokes putting. Last week at Memorial Park was particularly impressive given the length of the […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 Valero Texas Open

Min Woo Lee finally captured his first career victory this past week in Houston, as the young Austrailian held off charging players in Scottie Scheffler and Gary Woodland to win by one stroke at -20 under par. Heading into the final round, it was always Lee's tournament to win or lose, although having guys posting […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2025 Texas Children's Houston Open

We have officially hit the part of the schedule where all eyes are turned toward Augusta National and the Masters Tournament, but first, we have a short run in Texas. This week, the PGA Tour headed to Houston, Texas, for the Texas Children's Houston Open. Moving day was a crazy one, as Min Woo Lee […]

Scottie Scheffler Returns To Houston Looking For Year's First Victory

Given the run he's been on over the last few seasons, it is a bit shocking that Scottie Scheffler hasn't managed to win this event despite giving it incredible chances in recent memory. He's been a bridesmaid at Memorial Park for two of the last three years, and with the slow and frustrating start to […]

Rory McIlroy Making Additional Start At Houston Open To Prepare For Augusta

There is no other way to explain the Rory McIlroy show making a stop in Houston this week than that he feels as close as he possibly ever has to winning a green jacket. It's certainly the hottest start to a season he's had in quite some time, coming off the second Players Championship win […]

Doug Ghim Looking For Iron Form In Houston

After a hot start to the season from a ball-striking standpoint, Doug Ghim has hit a rough patch over his last two starts, losing over seven shots in this area over his two previous events. For a guy who cuts his teeth on the tee-to-green area of the game, this is concerning at a ballpark […]

Keep An Eye On Aaron Rai At Houston Open

Since leaving the West Coast, Aaron Rai has been scaring leaderboards at every turn with T4, T11, and T14 finishes in his last three starts. Those have come on the back of consistent putting and red-hot ball-striking. In his previous three outings, Rai has averaged plus-0.436 strokes gained putting, plus-1.226 strokes gained on approach, and […]

Si Woo Kim Looks To Build On Recent History At Memorial Park

This will be the fourth edition of this event that Si Woo Kim has played at Memorial Park Golf Course after making two previous starts at the Golf Club of Houston. In those three outings, he progressed from a missed cut in 2021 to a T35 in 2023 and a T17 last season. Strokes gained […]

Joe Highsmith Continues Post-Win Success And Is Looking For More In Houston

Florida was kind to Joe Highsmith in the four tournaments played in 2025, racking up a win, two top 25s, and a missed cut. The 24-year-old has received such a jolt of life since switching to the warm seasoned grass in Mexico that has propelled him into 18th in the FedEx Cup points race. He's […]

Adam Hadwin Far From Good Form As He Heads To Texas

It wasn't a good run in Florida for Adam Hadwin, as he missed the cut at both The Players and Valspar Championships and was the center of attention on X last week for busting a sprinkler head in frustration. It's easy to see why, as the Canadian averaged -1.41 strokes gained on approach during the […]

Nick Dunlap Looking For Ball-Striking Form Ahead Of Houston Open

It has been a rough stretch over the last couple of events for Nick Dunlap, as he has posted true strokes gained averages of -3.78 and -3.57 in strokes gained off the tee en route to missing back-to-back cuts at The Players and the API. That type of performance won't get things done, even at […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 Texas Children's Houston Open

It was a good run in Florida, as the Valspar Championship ended in a dramatic showdown between Justin Thomas and Viktor Hovland. After going -2 under on the "Snake Pit", Hovland took a commanding lead coming down the stretch after J.T. hit wayward drives on holes 16 and 18, leading to two costly bogeys and […]

Justin Thomas Continues To Spark But Hopes To Keep It Lit At Innisbrook

It was a weird week for Justin Thomas at TPC Sawgrass, as the course record-tying 62 shot on Friday was coupled with three rather uninspiring rounds. Looking back, his great second day was needed just to make the weekend after an opening round, 78 had things looking bleak for the former Players Champion. That speaks […]

Michael Kim Looks To Rebound At Valspar Championship

After a run of great form over the last several events, it was surprising to see Michael Kim miss the cut at The Players this past week. The 31-year-old got off to a rough start on Thursday, carding a three-over-par, 75. That is really all it takes to find yourself on the outside looking in […]

Tom Kim Looking For Putter Form At Valspar Championship

Tom Kim is slowly evolving into a player who doesn't surprise anyone when he's contending for tournaments, even though his rate of doing so is still very low. It's easier to gain that acclaim when you hit the ball as well as the South Korean does, but his woes with the flat stick have been […]

Rasmus Hojgaard Looking For Form At Valspar Championship

It was a rough go at TPC Sawgrass this past week for Rasmus Hojgaard, as he turned in a second-round 80 to miss the cut by a large margin. It's easy to do at a tricky place like the Stadium Course for the first time, but his game has been slipping since before that. The […]

Ben Griffin Needs To Find Ball-Striking Form Ahead Of Valspar Championship

After back-to-back T4 finishes, Ben Griffin has struggled to keep the momentum going, finishing T45 at the API and missing the cut at The Players. Ball striking is the culprit to his struggles, as the 28-year-old has averaged -0.65 in strokes gained on approach and -0.46 in strokes gained off the tee over his last […]

Tommy Fleetwood Looks To Keep Short But Successful Run Going At Innisbrook

With only two starts at the Copperhead Course, Tommy Fleetwood has never made this event a "must stop" on his schedule. But, the Englishman has played well on both occasions and comes into this week looking to add another solid finish to his resume. It's difficult to go as far as to call for a […]

Eric Cole Needs To Find A Spark At Innisbrook

Things have not been pretty this season for Eric Cole, as the former PGA Tour Rookie of the Year has missed four of his last five cuts. The 36-year-old is bleeding strokes from virtually every part of his game, ranking outside the top 135 in any strokes gained category other than around the green (65th: […]

Sam Burns Looks To Rebound At Valspar Championship

Coming off a T48 at the API and missing the cut at TPC Sawgrass last week, Sam Burns will look to rebound at Innisbrook this week at the Valspar Championship. This is an event where the 28-year-old has thrived in past years having back-to-back victories in 2022 and 2023. From a course history perspective, he […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2025 Valspar Championship

After a four-hour rain delay and extra holes on Monday, Rory McIlroy got back into the winner's circle for the second time this season to claim his second Players Championship. It took a three-hole aggregate playoff against J.J. Spaun to get the job done, and after a dominant display, he is in an excellent position […]

Round 4 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - 2025 Players Championship

After a wonderful event at Bay Hill, the PGA Tour moved to the East Coast of Florida this week for The Players Championship. As the flagship event on Tour, the action has been heavy over the first three days, with weather having a much larger effect this weekend than over the first two rounds. Numbers […]

Justin Thomas Looking For More Magic At TPC Sawgrass

It still seems like yesterday that Justin Thomas was storming up the leaderboard at the 2021 Players Championship and rope-hooking a wood down the left side of the iconic 18th hole to allow him to edge out an aging Lee Westwood by one stroke. Flash forward four years, and a lot has changed about JT's […]

Xander Schauffele Continues Competitive Return At The Players Championship

It certainly wasn't a week worth remembering at Bay Hill for Xander Schauffele. The 31-year-old returned from a two-month absence to finish T40 at one of the tougher venues on the PGA Tour. While the finish may not be what is expected of the reigning PGA and Open Champion, making it through the week unscathed […]

Rory McIlroy Looks To Reverse Recent History At TPC Sawgrass

Since his victory in 2019, Rory McIlroy has not had the greatest of times at the Stadium Course. Putting has been the main concern during that time, as he lost a combined -13.28 strokes on the greens between 2021 and 2023. That has luckily been a strong point of emphasis for the 35-year-old this season, […]

Min Woo Lee A Hard Name To Trust At The Players Championship

Given everything we've seen from Min Woo Lee in early 2025 between TGL and regular tour events, it seems a little far-fetched to call him hard to trust, right? The correct answer would normally be yes; however, the way he's managed to reach the top of leaderboards is not what typically finds success at the […]

Sungjae Im Looking To Build On Momentum At TPC Sawgrass

Last week at Bay Hill was a slight return to form for Sungjae Im, coming in T19 and ranking inside the top 20 in strokes gained putting, around the green, and off the tee. Unfortunately, his approach game struggled to get going, which has been a common theme for him in 2025. That will need […]

Russell Henley Looks To Keep The Winning Ways Going At Players Championship

For a guy like Russell Henley, his win this past week at the Arnold Palmer Invitational was a game-changer. It may have been his fifth PGA Tour victory, but the size and importance of this win are far greater than the other four times he's lifted a trophy. The short game was on fire at […]
