J.J. Spaun Carrying Plenty Of Momentum Into American Express
J.J. Spaun narrowly missed joining Nick Taylor and Nicolas Echavarria in a playoff at the Sony Open after holding the 54-hole lead. He started the final day strong with three birdies on the front nine but cooled off, making a bogey on the par-three 17th and missing a 10-foot birdie attempt on 18, which kept him out of the playoff. Despite the disappointing finish, Spaun has been on an upward trajectory since the second half of last year, missing just one cut in his last 13 starts and posting seven top-25 finishes during that stretch. He has played at La Quinta six times previously, with his most recent appearance in 2022, where he finished T25 and gained strokes across all aspects of his game. Spaun has carried the momentum from his success in 2024 into 2025, currently ranking first on tour in adjusted scoring average per round (67.573). At $8,600 on DraftKings, Spaun can be confidently inserted into fantasy lineups.
