Matt McCarty An Intriguing Value Play At CJ Cup
Matt McCarty and partner Mason Andersen missed the cut at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, but McCarty has been trending in the right direction individually with three top-20 finishes in his last five starts. He'll look to keep that momentum going at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, where he's making his tournament debut. Success at TPC Craig Ranch often hinges on distance off the tee and overall tee-to-green performance, areas where McCarty has struggled. He ranks 146th in driving distance, 132nd in strokes gained per round from tee to green (minus-0.302), and 148th in approach (minus-0.329). Despite this, he ranks in the 83rd percentile in proximity from 150–200 yards over the past 12 months, which accounts for 36.6% of approach shots at this course. He also gains 0.275 strokes per round putting, giving him upside if his irons cooperate. At $7,500 on DraftKings, McCarty is a risky but intriguing value option.
