Andrew Novak Will Be Chalk At Houston Open
9 months agoAndrew Novak will be a popular selection at the Houston Open, and rightfully so. The second-year Tour pro posted an impressive T17 finish at a difficult Copperhead Course last week, and he rattled off three consecutive top-10 finishes prior to his missed cut at The Players Championship before then. And while there is no course history to rely on, Novak seems to be a strong course fit this week as he ranks 37th in good drive percentage, 17th on approach, 16th around-the-green, 16th in par 5 scoring, and 13th in bogey avoidance over the last 24 rounds. He's currently projected to be the highest-owned golfer below $7,000, so fantasy managers selecting him will need to find pivot plays elsewhere on their rosters. But the reward is likely to outweigh the risk for Novak at the Houston Open.
