Who will follow in defending champion Jim Herman’s footsteps as the winner of the Shell Houston Open?

Last week’s WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play was certainly thrilling for PGA Tour fans, but now that the dust has settled, it’s time to return to a less volatile format. This week’s Shell Houston Open at the Golf Club of Houston in Humble, Texas will feature four standard stroke play rounds, so fantasy managers should have an easier time with their projections than they did last week.

With two World Golf Championship events in the last month, it might not feel like Masters Thursday is just a week-and-a-half away, but here we are. We’ve gotten to see a lot of top players in action over the past few weeks, and while many are taking this week off to rest in preparation for Augusta National, others are using this event as an important tune-up.

Be sure to keep an eye on any and all notable names in the field at the Houston Open — any information you can glean will come in handy as the year’s first major approaches.

Without further ado, let’s get to my projections for this week’s event. Here are ten solid bets for success at the Shell Houston Open. Each player’s current ranking in the race to the FedEx Cup is listed next to his name.
