Each week on GolfChannel.com, we’ll examine which players’ stocks and trends are rising and falling in the world of golf.
RISING
Bryson (+9%): His season of close calls culminated with a Memorial victory against a stacked field at a major-worthy venue. The 24-year-old DeChambeau is no longer just a curiosity – he’s the real deal and one of the game’s best.
Ariya (+7%): Coughing up a seven-shot lead on the back nine at the U.S. Open and then losing the ensuing playoff has haunted a star before – Arnold Palmer never won another major after his 1966 collapse – so it was a relief to see Jutanugarn pull it out, especially given her career of late stumbles.
