The Outlook

Landry has moments of brilliance but is wildly inconsistent. For example, in January he placed second at the CareerBuilder Challenge on the PGA Tour and subsequently missed his next four cuts. Two tournaments later, however, he won the Texas Open. He has a top 15 in his only major start in his career, but I'm afraid his inexperience on links courses, along with his streaky play, makes him a very risky bet.
