The Outlook

Rose will be the big question this week. After withdrawing from the Bridgestone Invitational with a back injury, it’s tough to know just where his health is at for the final major. He’ll look good in every model and his odds are likely to drift throughout the week with the back concern. If you want to play Rose in any format, the best approach is to wait and see and maybe Wednesday night will provide some clarity.
