Sam Stevens A Risky Play With Upside At CJ Cup
2025 has not been an ideal start for Sam Stevens, who has managed just one top-10 finish through 14 events. He'll look to turn things around at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, where he's made two appearances, finishing T62 and T34 over the past two seasons. With TPC Craig Ranch featuring the eighth-widest fairways on tour, driving accuracy is less critical, shifting the focus to approach play and putting—two areas where Stevens has struggled. He ranks 113th in strokes gained on approach and 106th in putting, losing strokes in both. However, he does rank in the 80th percentile in proximity from 150–200 yards, the range that accounts for 36.6% of approach shots at this course. Priced at $7,600 on DraftKings, Stevens has solid value upside but comes with clear risk.
