Aaron Rai Captures First Victory
4 months agoAaron Rai secured his first PGA Tour victory last week at the Wyndham Championship. While Rai has been performing well this year, he has not been able to clinch a win until now. This week, he will prepare for the FedEx St. Jude Championship at TPC Southwind. In previous years, Rai finished T49 in 2023 and T51 at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. He is entering the tournament with an impressive streak of making the cut in 11 straight tournaments. It's worth noting that in the past 12 months, Rai ranks in the 89th percentile for greens in regulation percentage on approach shots from 150-200 yards in the fairway. This is significant because last year's FedEx St. Jude Championship saw over 42% of approach shots being made from this distance. With Rai's recent win and consistent performance throughout the season, it may be worthwhile to consider him for DFS lineups this week.
