Sam Burns Looks to Continue Success at The American Express
After a strong 2025 season that included six top-10 finishes and a Ryder Cup appearance, Sam Burns opens his 2026 campaign at The American Express looking to pick up where he left off. He has been consistently solid in the Coachella Valley, posting four top-20 finishes in six starts at this event, including T6 finishes in both 2020 and 2024. Burns' strengths line up well with this multi-course setup, where success often hinges on putting and converting birdie chances. Last season, he ranked first in strokes gained putting (+0.983 per round) and 16th in birdie-or-better conversion, a profile that sets up extremely well in what is typically a low-scoring birdie-fest. Given his history here and his elite performance on the greens, Burns sets up as a high-ceiling play at $9,800 on DraftKings.
