PGA Tour Top 10 Power Rankings: Honda Classic

Charles Howell III — 9th

Incredibly, Howell is currently on a run of seven consecutive top 15 finishes, a stretch that dates back to the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open last November. While the Honda Classic hasn’t been one of his strongest tournaments from a historical perspective, he’s still six-for-seven since the event moved to PGA National in 2007, picking up a top 10 finish along the way. Course history buffs may roll their eyes nevertheless, but you can’t deny his form — not when it helped him to outplay his track record at Riviera. He also ranks inside the top 50 on the PGA Tour in three different strokes gained categories.

Howell has taken his characteristic consistency to new heights this season. While his form won’t be this good for the entire year, he appears to be all systems go this week, so expect him to shoot some solid scores.
