Chris Gotterup Needs an Accurate Driving Week For Success at PGA Championship
Coming off a T14 at Quail Hollow last week, Chris Gotterup arrives at Aronimink this week looking like a decent DFS option due to his length off the tee and ability to catch fire with his ball striking. However, length is only a fraction of the recipe needed to get around. The fairways here are cambered in ways that make them play narrower, and while the rough isn't as penal as expected, playing from here too often will limit scoring ability. Gotterup ranks 142nd this season in driving accuracy (52.50%). He is also a dodgy lag putter, which will be a large point of emphasis this week. In totality, the 26-year-old possesses the ball striking ability to thrive at this venue, but too many leaves where two-putting becomes a tall task, and things could be hard to contain. Consider the former Rutgers Scarlet Knight a high upside play with underlying risk.
