Golf's final major is on the brink. He ranked 7th in the field in strokes gained: approach and 15th in strokes gained: off the tee -- so the finish could've been much better. He's a fantastic mid-range play. Matsuyama has finished op at all three majors this year while losing strokes putting in each.
And while that sounds par for the course for Hideki, he's a 43rd-percentile putter from within 15 feet on the PGA Tour this season. That's a great recipe for having the putting level out for him. In both of those missed cuts, he lost strokes with the putter. Rose ranks in the 55th percentile in putting from within 15 feet, so we can feel good that the missed cut blips are just that: blips.

An is awesome off the tee and in he finished 26th at Hoylake. Greg Vara: This might be a popular answer, which perhaps makes him ineligible for this question because many people have already Googled him, but Matthew Jordan is certainly a candidate to spring to the top of the leaderboard early this week.
The reason. The public certainly has some faith in Jordan as his odds are similar to some well-established players. Len Hochberg: Three guys I'm looking at. First, and this is a well known guy, is Robert MacIntyre. He's He has two tops at the Open, plus nearly won last week at the Scottish Open.
The other two guys better fit the thrust of the question—Thriston Lawrence, a year-old South African with three wins in the past year, and Jordan Smith, a year-old Englishman. Both are in the top in the world rankings, both finished in the 40s at the Open last year, both have been playing well coming in and both are about The books will keep his odds low as a past champion, but overall, as a betting favorite his chances of winning are even lower.
