Three-time major champion Jordan Speith returns to the par-71 course for the first time since 2015 and is in need of a major push if he is to be a postseason presence through the Tour Championship.
While Spieth has sputtered, someone like Sungjae Im has quietly begun to surge. Remove the major championships — where Im has missed all three cuts — and the South Korean has notched six straight top 12 finishes worldwide, including a victory on the Korean Tour.Â
Im searches for his first victory in the United States in nearly three years and enters the tournament as the favorite after Patrick Cantlay withdrew.
Defending champion Sepp Straka has his sights set on going back-to-back, while Rocket Mortgage Classic contenders Aaron Rai and Davis Thompson hope to keep a good thing going.Â
