5 years agoKevin Kisner is not the longest driver of the golf ball, but he is accurate. With Pebble Beach playing shorter than your typical PGA Tour track, you don't have to overpower the course to be successful. Driving accuracy is of utmost importance in U.S. Open conditions, and Kisner hits 68% of his fairways off the tee. Combine that with Kisner's putting stroke, ranking 26th on tour in Strokes Gained-Putting, and you get a player who's game shapes up well for Pebble Beach and this year's U.S. Open. While he won't post a ton of birdies, consistent play will keep him in contention throughout the tournament.--Walt Clark
