Patrick Cantlay Set To Defend Shriners Title
6 years agoPatrick Cantlay will head to Las Vegas this week to defend his Shriners Hospitals for Children Open title. It was his first career victory on the PGA Tour. The young star won last season's Shriners Open in dramatic fashion, outlasting Alex Cejka and Whee Kim in a three-man playoff. The win kick started a very successful season for Cantlay, who went on to grab six top-10 finishes in 2018. The 26-year-old is an elite ball striker and finished 2018 at ninth in strokes gained: tee to green. Cantlay has picked up right where he left off by recording a T17 at the Safeway Open and a T7 in last week's WGC-HSBC in his only two appearances of the 2019 season. He is an elite DFS option in all formats this week.
