---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
First time playing in this event |
More info:
Since turning pro after the U.S. Open has only been higher than 13th once in seven pro starts. In his last start was T-2nd at the Albertsons Boise Open which helps earn his PGA Tour card.
Jason Kokrak

T3 | CUT | T54 | T41 | CUT |
Was T-3rd last year at Greenbrier. Stats are solid for Old White, in 2019 was T-19th in Strokes Gained Tee-to-Green, 32nd in Greens in Regulation, T-76th in Scrambling and 11th in Birdie Average.

T14 |
Other than missing the cut at the PGA Championship and the British Open has been solid since May. Game is suited for Old White as he hits it fairly straight off the tee, hits a good amount of greens and can hold his own around and on the greens.
Sungjae Im
2019 | ’18 | ’17 | ’16 | ’15 | ’14 | ’13 | ’12 | ’11 | ’10 | ’09 | ’08 | ’07 |

Had a stunning rookie season, only one to make it to the Tour Championship. Playing at Greenbrier for the first time, ok from tee to green he was 30th in 2019 in Greens in Regulation but his strong suit is scrambling (was 7th last year), putting (was T-38th in putts made inside 10 feet) and T-28th in birdie Average.

Yes his record is terrible in this event but he hasn’t played since 2015 and is a different player now that back then. Has had bumps in the majors and big events, but on the whole has been very consistent all year and usually plays well in the fall.

Ditto for Murray after a terrible year on the PGA Tour was T-2nd at the Rex Hospital Open and T-7th at the Korn Ferry Tour helping him retain his PGA Tour card for another year.
what do you mean small greens????
The average size of Greenbrier greens is 6,700 square feet which are below the average green size on the PGA Tour.
Yes I see were you are coming from, they aren’t small like Pebble Beach, still, Greenbrier is below normal.
