Quicken Loans National power rankings: Top ten at TPC Potomac
How’s this for a model of consistency? Bill Haas missed three straight cuts between the RBC Heritage and The PLAYERS Championship. In his other 13 events this year, though, he’s finished in the top-25 a whopping ten times, with three top-tens included.
That production has kept him solidly inside the world’s Top 50, and ranked 26th in the FedEx Cup race. When you see results like that, it’s only a matter of time until he pops off a big win, and it feels like Haas is ready for his seventh PGA TOUR title sooner rather than later.
Haas’s game is built on touch, which should work very well at TPC Potomac this week. He’s ranked eighth on TOUR in greens-in-regulation, but he saves a ton of strokes when he misses, too. Ranked seventh in scrambling, Haas has saved par 188 times on 288 missed greens this year. Those strokes add up, and could be the difference this week.
