Kevin Kisner has put himself into the mix to win two of the last four majors.

Perhaps stepping out of the cauldron will do Kisner some good.

After a slow start on Sunday, Kisner righted the ship to give himself a chance to win down the stretch and finish T2.

It snapped a cold spell that kicked in after Kisner got off to a good start to the 2017-18 season in the fall and winter.

Prior to Carnoustie, Kisner went MC-MC-T52-T74-MC-55.

Before that, though, Kisner advanced to the WGC-Match Play finals and had top-10s at the RSM Classic and RBC Heritage.

At Glen Abbey, Kisner finished T26 in his lone start in 2016.

Kisner is 17th on Tour in strokes gained putting this season. He’s 99th in strokes gained around the green, but he was fourth in the field at the Open in scrambling.

He’s 38th in fairways hit, also. There are a variety of ways Kisner can win this week. As long as he’s not burned out or discouraged from last week, he could parlay his newfound form into a trophy.
