Each week on GolfChannel.com, we’ll examine which players’ stocks and trends are rising and falling in the world of golf.
RISING
Hideki Matsuyama (+8%): His pace of play is dreadful, and his putting holds him back from consistently challenging golf’s top tier, but Matsuyama’s ball-striking is so pure that he will vacuum up plenty of titles over the next few years.
Danny Willett (+6%): The Englishman lives in contention these days, and now he is learning how to slam the door. The Olympics and Ryder Cup are squarely in his sights.
