Scottie Scheffler is No. 1 in the FedEx rankings but this Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa, Oklahoma, has plenty of unique challenges, including ample water, tricky up-and-downs, and windy conditions. After winning the Arnold Palmer, Scheffler finished No. 55 at THE PLAYERS, then after winning the Masters he's been No. 18 and No. 15 the last two outings. A key for this course is Strokes Gained and Driving Accuracy Percentage and in the latter Scheffler ranks #128. Justin Thomas has also been on a roll finishing sixth, third, eighth, and fifth in four of his last six tournaments. His skill with iron shots of different speeds and distances is sensational, a huge asset on this course. Thomas is also #13 in Driving Distance, fifth in Strokes Gained Approach-the-Green, fourth in Total Strokes Gained. And over his past 24 rounds, he ranks fourth in Strokes Gained (+23.4). Make it a Max Play on Justin Thomas to win this head-to-head matchup.
