USOpen Rd2

Rd2
DJ -120 v Fitzpatrick (Draftkings)

DJ was really good rd1 at -6
BUT it could’ve been even better if he putted well.  Not that he was bad but he was -0.03 strokes gained putting.            For comparison Fowler was +4.77 and Schauffele was +3.23 putting.

DJ ball striking stats were impressive. He led the field in shots gained T2G +7.41. More than a stroke better than next best Schauffele.

DJ strokes gained other categories
APP +4.11
OTT +2.25
ARG +1.05

Fitzpatrick was more bad than good. He putted well at +1.50 and was good around green at +1.03 but was still over par at +1.
Ball striking stats for Fitz not great
OTT -2.16
T2G -1.12
APP +0.02

DJ always seems to play well in California too.

Off yesterday play this line sticks out

Added Rd2
Dechambeau-125 v JT

2 guys whose play are going in different directions

JT just not playing his best right now.  MC at Memorial last time out and was 65th at PGA.  Just not playing like the JT in past years 

JT in a downward spiral, no doubt. Needed him to make cut, to complete an otherwise successful four player parlay. Abandoning ship until he rights it.  GL

Dechambeau easy winner.  JT awful

DJ push against Fitz.  DJ played much better than Fitz but trailed entire day thanks to a quadruple bogey 8 on 2nd hole.  DJ made a bunch of birds to end day Even par to salvage the push. Considering Fitz made a hole in 1 and 2 long putts over 25’ I thought it was gonna be a bad luck loser so happy with the push
