Result:
LOSS

Jon Rahm had a great start to the season, but he's tailed off since the coronvirus stoppage. In five of his seven tournaments since the PGA restart, Rahm has finished #33, #37, #27, #52, along with missing the cut at the Charles Schwab Challenge. For this long course, Rahm is #34 in Driving Distance and #53 in Strokes Gained Approach-the-Green. Justin Thomas is having a dominant season, ranked No. 1 in the FedExCup. He has 10 Top 10 finishes, including winning the Sentry Tournament of Champions (14-under-par), the C.J. Cup (20-under-par), and last month's St. Jude Invitational (13-under-par). Throw in third-place at the Phoenix Open, fourth-place in the Safeway Open, and second at the Workday Charity Open, he deserves that No. 1 ranking. On the key metrics for this course, Thomas is No. 1 in Strokes Gained Approach-the-Green, third in Birdie Average (4.67), #10 in Sand Save Percentage, and fourth in Scoring Average (69.017). Play Justin Thomas to win this head-to-head matchup for a Max Play.
