Houston Open Power Rankings: Top ten players at Golf Club of Houston

Stenson was once again a horse for the course in taking fourth place in his last start at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. He was in contention to win and should be in line for another high finish this week in Houston.

He can feast on a relatively weak field this week at a course where he has two runner-up finishes and a T3. He was solo second in 2016, missing out on a playoff by one.

This course doesn’t require a lot of drivers which suits Stenson well. If his irons are sharp per usual, he’ll have plenty of close looks on these fast, yet flat, greens.
