Similar to Wade Ormsby at No. 9, I’m willing to overlook a few recent down weeks from Julian Suri. The 26-year-old American won in Denmark as a rookie in 2017 and sprinkled in a few more top-10s.

Suri was in contention at the UBS Hong Kong Open, finishing one shot from a playoff in a tie for second.

If Suri can become more consistent, he’ll really get his name out there. He showed his talent with an opening 65 at last week’s Tshwane Open, only to follow with three rounds in the 70s to fall back to a tie for 48th.

This will be Suri’s first trip to the Indian Open.

He competed at the 2013 Hero Indian Open in his first professional start. Given his Indian heritage, this should be an impactful tournament for Suri. Perhaps he’ll be an inspired player this week.
