4 years agoRussell Knox had a solid T9 finish at the Safeway Open to start his 2021 season but has missed the cut in each of his last two starts. He does not drive the ball far, but he makes up for it with his approach shots. Knox ranks fifth on Tour in greens in regulation percentage. His short game is currently what is lacking most. He ranks 149th in scrambling and 212th in birdie conversion percentage. However, he will have a great opportunity to improve on that at Port Royal. There will be a lot of approach shots inside of 150 yards, and Knox ranks ninth in approaches from 125 to 150 yards. There is not a whole lot of reason to be confident in his putting stroke thus far, but he could be a decent DFS play at $7,600 if he can get the flat stick going.--Connor Wege
