Marco Penge a Boom-or-Bust Option in Houston
Marco Penge continued his up-and-down start to the year with a T4 finish at the Valspar Championship, marking his second result of T16 or better through six events. He will look to carry that momentum into the Texas Children's Houston Open, where he is making his tournament debut. Success here typically hinges on distance off the tee, long iron play, and avoiding bogeys. Penge ranks first on tour in strokes gained off the tee (+0.861 per round) and seventh in driving distance, but sits just 140th on approach (-0.621) and 147th in bogey avoidance. In fact, he has lost strokes in every major category outside of off the tee. At $9,100 on DraftKings, Penge is likely to be a popular pivot given his elite driving ability, but his approach game has the potential to hold him back.
