Brendan Steele Still Struggling

Brendan Steele did not play well on tour last season and kicked off this year with a missed cut at the Sony Open, a course where he has had success in the past. There was not much optimism to be found in last week's performance either, as the 38-year-old finished near the bottom of the […]

Andrew Landry Gets Back To A Favorite Course

Andrew Landry (OWGR No. 196) might be a good play in DFS for fantasy gamers that like to focus on course history. The 34-year-old won the AMEX in 2020, finished second in 2018 and has missed the cut just once in five appearances. However, he had a rough time on tour last year, finishing in […]

Hitters Set To Break Out Late in 2022

In baseball, common sense would indicate that a player would break out when they reach their prime, which is around 26 years old. However, development is not linear. We have seen plenty of players burst onto the scene with the first or second season and flourish, while others have taken longer than expected to develop. […]

Kyler Murray Struggles Mightily In Playoff Loss To Rams

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray completed 19-of-34 passes for 137 yards and two interceptions in Monday night's 34-11 Wild-Card Round loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

Rickie Fowler Hopes To Jump Start His Year At La Quinta

Off the course, Rickie Fowler had a nice 2021. He and his wife welcomed a baby girl last fall. On the course, Fowler struggled again last year. His best finish was a third-place showing at The CJ Cup in October. Fowler played exceptionally from tee-to-green that week, gaining nine strokes. Unfortunately, that success was short-lived. […]

Abraham Ancer A Nice Fit At The American Express

Abraham Ancer has excellent course history at La Quinta. His strong performance is highlighted by his fifth-place finish last year. In 2021, Ancer gained 4.3 strokes from tee-to-green and 3.6 strokes on approach. What is very surprising is how poorly he putted that week. Despite finishing fifth, Ancer lost strokes on the green that week. […]

Patrick Cantlay A Heavy Favorite This Week

Patrick Cantlay's 2022 debut was a solid one, as he finished fourth at Kapalua. In Maui, Cantlay gained 5.9 strokes from tee to green and 3.6 strokes on approach. This solid performance was only minuscule compared to his incredible run in the playoffs. Cantlay should also feel at home here in La Quinta, California. He […]

Cooper Kupp Finds The End Zone In Playoff Win Over Arizona

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp caught five of seven targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 34-11 Wild-Card round win over the Arizona Cardinals. After an uncharacteristically quiet first half (1-5-0), he finished the game strong by catching four passes for 55 yards and a score. Rams QB Matthew Stafford connected […]

Plate Discipline: Using Sabermetrics for Fantasy Baseball

No matter how high a particular player's BABIP may be, his average will be mediocre at best if he strikes out too much. This is why fantasy managers have known for years that players like Mike Zunino are potential drains on a fantasy team's batting average. Furthermore, players that whiff a lot tend to continue […]

The 41-year-old has played in the AMEX nine times and finished in […]

Brian Harman Still Searching For His Swing

Brian Harman has only missed the cut twice in nine attempts at the AMEX and finished in the top 10 here in 2017 and 2021. However, the lefty has not been in good form since a top-10 finish at the Travelers Championship last June. The 62nd-ranked player in the world did manage to make the […]

Jason Day Hoping To Find Form In Maiden Trip To La Quinta

Jason Day's golf game has been trending downward since his two PGA Tour victories back in 2018.

With just two top-10 finishes across the 2021 season and three appearances this past fall that saw […]

Brian Flores, Brian Daboll Could Be Favorites For Giants

Former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores and Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll are believed to be on the short list as top candidates to become the New York Giants next head coach, according to multiple sources familiar with the Giants thinking. It's possible that both coaches could get interviews with the Giants, regardless […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Hopes To Remain With Steelers

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster returned from Injured Reserve for one more game in the team's wild-card loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night, but he'll be an unrestricted free agent for the second straight year this offseason. When asked if he might re-sign again, Smith-Schuster said, "Honestly, it would be a […]

Larry Ogunjobi Placed On Injured Reserve

The Cincinnati Bengals placed defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi (foot) on Injured Reserve on Monday due to a right foot injury that he suffered in Saturday's wild-card win over the Las Vegas Raiders.

Gary Trent Jr. Not Available On Monday

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Miami Heat. Trent attempted to warm up for this contest, but the swelling in his left ankle continues to bother him. That means, Trent will miss his fifth straight game, but seems closer to a return. Fred VanVleet and […]

Mike McCarthy Expected To Remain With Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said on Monday that he expects head coach Mike McCarthy to remain the team's head coach after the Cowboys season ended on Sunday in the wild-card loss to the San Francisco 49ers. "Absolutely. Very confident," Jones said. It was a very disappointing end for a Cowboys team that […]

Duncan Robinson Moves Into Starting Lineup

Miami Heat guard Duncan Robinson will move into the starting five for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Kyle Lowry (personal) will be unavailable for this contest, but hopefully it'll only be a one-game absence. His absence should mean more minutes for Robinson, Strus, and possibly Caleb Martin. Robinson is a shaky fantasy option due […]

Ezekiel Elliott Played Through Torn PCL This Year

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) said that he partially tore his PCL this year. Elliott said he won't need offseason surgery on his knee, but it's something that he had to work through during the year. "It's my job," Elliott said. The 26-year-old will be able to rest up after the Cowboys were […]
