With open fairways, large greens, and minimal hazards, Craig Ranch is an easier track than many other courses. Driving accuracy is less important, while power, Strokes Gained, and Par 4/5 Scoring are key. Pierceson Coody was 96th last week at the PGA Championship. He's 47th in Longest Drives, 32nd in Total Driving Efficiency, 148th in Strokes Gained Around the Green, and 73rd in Strokes Gained Putting. He's also 122nd in Total Putting and 66th in Par 5 Scoring. Michael Thorbjornsen has excellent power for this course, ranked 22nd in Longest Drives, 19th in Driving Distance, and 22nd in Total Driving Efficiency. He finished 13th at the Zurich Classic last month, 14th at the Texas Open in March, and third at the Phoenix Open. Play Michael Thorbjornsen to win this head-to-head matchup.
