It wasn't too long ago that Doc Redman was being talked about as one of golf's rising young golfers, but after a really poor stretch of golf last year, there were a lot of question marks. Redman has started to show some promise again in 2022, having made four of his last five cuts while […]

Webb Simpson returned from a two-month absence from a back injury last week at the Players Championship. Although Webb missed the cut, we think it is pretty telling that he is playing in back-to-back weeks this week at the Valspar Championship. If Webb was still not 100%, it would be a great week to skip, […]

Webb Simpson (back) returns to the PGA Tour after a two-month layoff while dealing with a bulging disc injury. It's difficult to say how healthy Simpson is as he comes to TPC Sawgrass this week, but we think the extended layoff will have him feeling pretty good. Simpson, a former Players Champion, certainly has some […]

Lee Westwood has been rather quiet on the PGA Tour to start the 2021-2022 season, and we have only seen him appear twice. Westwood's performance last week at the Honda Classic was rather pedestrian, but he gained strokes in all major statistical categories other than around the green. In contrast, Westwood's short game was spectacular […]

Henrik Stenson has been on the worst run of golf he's had on the PGA Tour in his illustrious career. Stenson has missed 10 of his last 13 cuts dating back to last year's Arnold Palmer Invitational.

Billy Horschel comes to TPC Scottsdale in great form. Horschel has been about as consistent as anyone over the last five months, with nine consecutive made cuts since last year's U.S. Open.

Chez Reavie comes to Scottsdale on a run of very poor golf. Reavie has missed two of his first three cuts and mixed in a 70th-place finish at the Farmers Insurance Open. As expected, Reavie's iron play continues to be the lone bright spot in his game, but the rest of his game has been […]

Former major champion Gary Woodland has had quite a tough time finding consistent success on the PGA Tour since the restart after the COVID-19 pause in June of 2020. Woodland did have five top-15 finishes in 2021, but the season was littered with missed cuts and disappointing performances. Luckily for Woodland, he is back at […]

Patrick Rodgers is known for being a "boom or bust" type of golfer with varying extreme finishes. When he finds a hot putter, he is absolutely capable of finishing inside the top ten at any course, but the possibility of a missed cut always looms when considering the Stanford alum. Rodgers' volatility has been on […]

Joel Dahmen heads to Torrey Pines after a missed cut at the Sony Open in his most recent start. Dahmen had made seven straight cuts prior to that performance.

As Phil Mickelson loves to remind us, he is the reigning PGA Champion, and although he's been as inconsistent as anyone, we know the upside is always there. Mickelson comes to the Farmers Insurance Open after opening 2022 with two horrible performances at the Sentry Tournament of Champions and American Express. The 51-year-old is no […]

Chez Reavie enters the week off of a missed cut at the American Express, a tournament where he has failed to make the weekend three consecutive times.
