Augusta National is a long course with wide fairways. With the firm and fast bentgrass greens often difficult to read, it puts an emphasis on course total strokes gained. Russell Henley is 38th in World Golf Rankings but is 118th in Total Strokes Gained, 110th in Strokes Gained Approach the Green, and 195th in Strokes Gained Putting. Henley won the World Wide Technology Championship in November, but since then he's finished in the Top 29 just once in seven tournaments. He's also 178th in Driving Distance and 183rd in Total Putting. Left-handers have done well on this course and lefty Brian Harman is 29th in World Golf Rankings and 26th in the FedEx Cup. He's 74th in Total Strokes Gained, 17th in Strokes Gained Off-the-Tee, and 61st in Strokes Gained Putting. He's also 17th in Driving Distance and 20th in Total Putting. Experience on this course is also a plus and Harman finished 12th at the 2021 Masters. Play Brian Harman to win this head-to-head matchup.
