Brooks Koepka has good power off the tee (#20 in Driving Distance), but the around-the-green game is essential at lengthy Augusta National. Koepka ranks #172 in Driving Accuracy Percentage, #128 in Greens-in-Regulation, and #104 in Strokes Gained Approach-the-Green. He's missed the cut in five of his last 10 tournaments, as well as missing the cut in last year's Masters. While Koepka is No. 58 in FedEx Cup rankings, Viktor Hovland is No. 7. Hovland has been under-par in nine of 10 tournaments this season, including a fourth-place finish at The Genesis Invitational (14-under-par), a second at the Arnold Palmer Invitational (14-under-par) while winning the World Wide Technology Championship (23-under-par) and the Hero World Challenge (18-under-par). He's #39 in Driving Distance, #11 in Greens-in-Regulation, and third in Strokes Gained Approach-the-Green. Experience helps on this course, and not only is Hovland experienced, but he's also done well here finishing 32nd at the 2019 Masters, skipping in 2020 during the pandemic, then finishing 21st last year. Play Viktor Hovland to take this head-to-head matchup.
