The last two times out, Jimmy Walker was #70 at the U.S. Open and #71 in the Rocket Mortgage Classic to slide to #175 in the FedEx Cup standings. Getting set up for the all-important second shot at Royal St. George's golf course does not look promising for Walker, ranked #86 in Driving Distance and #208 in Driving Accuracy. In addition, he's #206 in Greens-in-Regulation, #99 in Sand Save Percentage, and #182 in Strokes Gained Approach-the-Green. Keith Mitchell looks to get back on track after four rough showings. However, he did finish fourth at the Zurich Classic, third at the Wells Fargo in May, #26 at the Byron Nelson, and is better suited for this course as he is #30 in Driving Distance. Back Keith Mitchell to win this head-to-head matchup.
