the PGA Championship<\/a> and fifth at the US Open. In addition, he already knows what it is to win in Japan, as it was in this country where he won the Olympic gold in Tokyo 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSchauffele is looking for his first title of the year, as he is currently blank, unlike the three he won in 2022, which were the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, the Travelers Championship, and the Genesis Scottish Open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the list of candidates appears as second the also American Collin Morikawa, who has been a professional since 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Throughout his career, he has won five titles, including the PGA Championship and The Open Championship. However, since 2021 he cannot celebrate a trophy, falling in 2023 in the definition of the Rocket Mortgage Classic against his compatriot Rickie Fowler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then it’s Hideki Matsuyama’s turn to talk about, who has already won the Zozo Championship, being so far the only local to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He has eight trophies in the PGA Tour and the last one was the Sony Open in Hawaii. Throughout his career, he has been fifth in the Masters Tournament, second in the US Open, and fifth in the PGA Championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is time to highlight a golf legend like the American Rickie Fowler, who at 34 years of age is still in the circuit, as evidenced by his trophy at this year’s Rocket Mortgage Classic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He has been runner-up in the Masters Tournament, US Open, and The Open Championship, in addition to being third in the PGA Championship. An important fact is that in 2022 he was runner-up in the Zozo Championship, so he is eager for revenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Underdog Picks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n Another Asian among the favorites is South Korean Sungjae Im, number 26 in the world and who has been champion twice at the age of 25, being one of the young faces that generates more expectation in the circuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Honda Classic and the Shriners Children’s Open are in his showcases, in addition, in 2020 he was runner-up in the Masters. This year his best participation in a major was also in this tournament, finishing in eighth place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, we must talk about the American Sahith Theegala, a professional since 2020 who has a trophy in his career as a golfer, the Fortinet Championship this year, beating Kim Seong-hyeon from South Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
