Corey Conners Offers High Upside at U.S. Open
Corey Conners heads to the U.S. Open in strong form after a T27 finish at the Canadian Open, his 10th top-30 result of the season. He's made just one cut in six career U.S. Open starts, but that appearance resulted in a T9 finish last year. This year's tournament returns to Oakmont Country Club, a notoriously tough course featuring 28-yard-wide fairways and rough nearing five inches. Ball-striking will be critical, and Conners ranks 24th in strokes gained from tee to green (plus-0.747 per round), eighth in driving accuracy, and is in the 61st percentile in greens in regulation from over 150 yards out of the rough. His weakness lies around the green, where he ranks 113th, losing 0.043 strokes per round. Conners' elite tee-to-green play gives him solid upside, but his track record at the U.S. Open and short-game concerns add volatility to his outlook.
