The Outlook
Here’s your chance to jump on a potential contender at a big price. Despite losing in a Memorial Tournament playoff just two weeks ago, An was largely off most radar screens because he wasn’t officially in the U.S. Open field prior to this week, instead taking one of those TBDs on the original tee sheet thanks to his world ranking. A former U.S. Amateur champion, he could follow in the footsteps of so many previous players who seem to thrive on USGA setups.
The Metrics
Here's how An ranks in the U.S. Open field in several key metrics. For many more, be sure to check out the FantasyLabs PGA Models.
