Who to watch for at the Dell Technologies Championship
Best Bets:
Dustin Johnson
2017 | ’16 | ’15 | ’14 | ’13 | ’12 | ’11 | ’10 | ’09 | ’08 | ’07 | ’06 | ’05 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
T8 | T44 | T27 | T4 | T42 | T57 | T4 |
This guy is very hard to beat when he is on his game and when he is playing a bombers course like TPC Boston, he will be hard to beat.
Jordan Spieth
2017 | ’16 | ’15 | ’14 | ’13 | ’12 | ’11 | ’10 | ’09 | ’08 | ’07 | ’06 | ’05 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
T21 | CUT | T29 | T4 |
You know he will be around and contending on Sunday, but he has to be perfect with his putting to have any chance of beating Johnson if he is playing well.
Justin Thomas
2017 | ’16 | ’15 | ’14 | ’13 | ’12 | ’11 | ’10 | ’09 | ’08 | ’07 | ’06 | ’05 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
CUT | T56 |
Has not sparkled in two starts at TPC Boston, but he has the game and has played well in his last two starts.
Best of the rest:
Louis Oosthuizen
2017 | ’16 | ’15 | ’14 | ’13 | ’12 | ’11 | ’10 | ’09 | ’08 | ’07 | ’06 | ’05 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
T8 | T12 | 2 |
This guy is a great sleeper pick for this week, was T-10th at the Northern Trust, T-2nd at the PGA and has finished twice in the top-ten in three starts at TPC Boston including a runner-up finish in 2012.
Matt Kuchar
2017 | ’16 | ’15 | ’14 | ’13 | ’12 | ’11 | ’10 | ’09 | ’08 | ’07 | ’06 | ’05 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
T46 | T9 | T29 | T4 | T35 | T25 | T11 | T15 | CUT | T41 | T27 |
In 13 starts at TPC Boston only contended once (in 2013) but his game is good right now and it’s a perfect match for this week.
Paul Casey
2017 | ’16 | ’15 | ’14 | ’13 | ’12 | ’11 | ’10 | ’09 | ’08 | ’07 | ’06 | ’05 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Was runner-up last year, he has been in the top-26 in 11 straight starts going back to the Match Play in March.
Rickie Fowler

T15 | T25 | T57 |
Has shown steady improvement on TPC Boston, don’t worry about him missing the cut last week that won’t happen this week.
Jon Rahm

Watch him, he was good last week at Northern Trust and hits the ball far enough to do well at TPC Boston.
Charley Hoffman

Just don’t like him this week:

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Win | T29 | T5 | T47 | Win | T37 |
Sorry but he just hasn’t shown us much this summer and I think the trend will continue this week. Honestly wish he would just not play and get healthy again for 2018.
Jason Day
2017 | ’16 | ’15 | ’14 | ’13 | ’12 | ’11 | ’10 | ’09 | ’08 | ’07 | ’06 | ’05 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
T15 | T12 | T7 | T13 | T51 | T3 | T2 | T19 | T50 |
Could he pull another Byron Nelson type of start and contend, yes. Has played well in his last two starts finishing T-9th at the PGA and T-6th at the Northern Trust, but I just don’t think he has it in him. Could be wrong.
Brooks Koepka
2017 | ’16 | ’15 | ’14 | ’13 | ’12 | ’11 | ’10 | ’09 | ’08 | ’07 | ’06 | ’05 |
