KLM Open: Top 10 Power Rankings
By Adam McGee
The European Tour rolls into it’s latest stop at the KLM Open in the Netherlands this week, where Thomas Pieters is defending champion.
While many of the world’s best players are wrapped up in the FedEx cup playoffs in the US at the moment, there are still a number of Europe’s very best making the trip to the Netherlands this week for the KLM Open.
Rotated among some of the best courses that the country has to offer, this year’s KLM Open will take place at The Dutch, a Colin Montgomerie design which will play host to this tournament through to 2018.
Although he won his KLM Open on a different course, there’s no reason for the defending champion, Thomas Pieters, not to remain the favorite this week having sealed a Ryder Cup spot following his scintillating recent form.
