Alex Noren

If you’re not up to speed that Alex Noren can golf his ball, shame on you. All the Swede has done is win four times in four different countries on the European Tour since July and contended just about everywhere else. The world No. 11 hasn’t missed a cut since the US Open. You have to go back to the Irish Open in May to find his last cut in a regular season event.

The wacky week could throw a wrench into his torrid pace, but, by the looks of it, this tournament could be held on the moon and Noren would feel right at home. He will be making his first appearance at Lake Karrinyup unlike the rest on this list.

Ball-striking and a healthy short game tend to translate well from course to course, though, and Noren has them both. He hit 72.9 percent of greens in regulation (18th on Tour) and scrambled at a 63.3 percent clip (fourth).

“This will be my first time to Western Australia and I am excited to play Lake Karrinyup Country Club and see the sights. I have heard great things from my fellow European Tour players,” Noren said in a European Tour press release. “Everyone on the European Tour has been talking about the ISPS HANDA World Super 6 Perth, the format is very interesting and I look forward to playing in the inaugural tournament.”
