Plus, if the weather gets horrible, Bez’ short game and scramble is elite against this motley crew in San Antonio.Īustin Smotherman - The SMOTHER-MAN first took down Randle McMurphy, and now he’s setting his sights on this field. Fortunately, there are plenty of shorter Par 4s to deploy those wedges on, and the Par 5s can be three shot holes for the field so he’s not at the usual disadvantage. Looking at his proximity buckets, the further he gets from the hole, the worse he rates against the field. The South African has wins in weak-field birdiefests on the DP World Tour, and claimed victory against a similar weak field, difficult scoring PGA event at the Palmetto.Ĭhristiaan Bezuidenhout - After a putting swoon that lingered into this calendar year, Bez has finally started to turn it around on the greens, gaining with the putter in three of four after dropping to the field in five of six. Garrick Higgo - The driver runs hot and cold and the putter is mostly frigid, but Higgo continues hitting GIRs at one of the highest rates in the field, and when he misses, he’s going the better around the green players in attendance. He’ll be one of the longer players in the field, which, along with his precision from 125 yards and in and experience in the wind, make Fox one of the clear favorites in San Antonio. While the list of champions that Detroit Golf Club has produced varies wildly between Finau last year and Nate Lashley in 2019, the common thread is that birdies will be needed in bunches to succeed in this event.Ryan Fox - Fox has churned out Top 30 finishes in each PGA TOUR start, both elevated events couple that with his three straight Top 20s on the DP World Tour before clearing customs and you have a string of excellent form. It was a particularly hot stretch for Finau, who pulled off wins in back-to-back events after also claiming victory in last year's 3M Open the previous week.

Based in Michigan, the event will once again be played at Detroit Golf Club and utilize a combination of two Donald Ross-designed courses.
