Valero Texas Open Analysis
Tyrrell Hatton +1300
Tyrrell Hatton has had an impressive start to 2023. He finished tied for sixth at the Waste Management Open, tied for fourth at Genesis Invitational and second at THE PLAYERS Championship – giving him a golden opportunity to finally claim his first win of the year. Moreover, Hatton ranks first in strokes gained: total among this field with an average SG of 2.005 this year. With such a weak field coming in, Hatton could finally grab that first win of the year.
Rickie Fowler +1800
Fowler could potentially earn an invitation to The Masters with a victory here, though he hasn’t won a tournament since 2019 and hasn’t been to Augusta since 2020. But this field looks much more manageable for him as he ranks second among this field in strokes gained and 14th overall among PGA TOUR golfers with an average of 1.283.
Matt Kuchar +2800
Kuchar was the runner-up here last year and has achieved two top-10 finishes at elevated events this year. He typically does well on TPC San Antonio – gaining over 28 strokes overall over his tournaments here, finishing no worse than 12th or better in each of his last three appearances. Last week he won his group in WGC Match Play by beating Si Woo Kim and Viktor Hovland to the weekend.
Patton Kizzire +8000
Two weeks ago, Patton Kizzire shot a third round 67 at the 2023 Valspar Championship to finish in tenth place. After four rounds of competitive golf played at this year’s Valspar Championship, relative to other golfers he ranked 16th for strokes gained off the tee, eighth for scrambling, 11th in driving accuracy and fourth in total birdies made.
