Marc Leishman is arguably the most underrated player on tour. In the Aussie's last four years at the Open Championship, he has perhaps had the best tournament history of any player who has failed to capture the title. Leishman has posted three top-six finishes, which includes a runner-up playoff loss to Zach Johnson in 2015 at St. Andrews. The 18th-ranked golfer is one of the best wind players in the world and shouldn't be thrown off of his game if gale force winds do strike down on Carnoustie. In his last 24 rounds with wind strength of moderate or worse, Leishman ranks in top 25 in strokes gained tee to green, strokes gained approach and scrambling compared to the field. But even if the wind doesn't become a factor, Leishman still ranks in the top 25 in those exact statistics over his last 100 rounds. --Spencer Aguiar - RotoBallerRead More News
