Houston Open: Top 10 PGA Tour Fantasy Power Rankings
By Sam Belden
Charles Howell III — 13th
Howell turned in an outstanding performance in Austin last week, surviving a group that included Tyrrell Hatton and Rafa Cabrera-Bello before falling to a surging Jon Rahm in the round of 16. He’ll still be credited with a top 10 for the week, improving his yearlong record to five top 15s in eight events. Furthermore, he’s put together a nice track record at the Shell Houston Open, featuring a top 10 in three of the past four years. Statistically, he doesn’t dominate in any one category, but his rankings of 35th in total strokes gained and 20th in scoring average are testaments to his consistency.
One of Howell’s best qualities as a player is that we usually know what we’re going to get from him. With his proven track record at the Houston Open, expect to do just fine against this week’s strong field.
