Another week, another high ranking for Justin Rose in my top 10. He’s as close as we’ve got to a golf robot and his machine-like consistency applies to the WGC-Bridgestone, too, of course.

The Englishman is quite familiar with Firestone. He’s made 14 starts here and has qualified for the event each year since 2007. Since 2002, Rose has five top-10s including a T2 in 2007.

He’s only finished worse than T33 twice.

Rose is up to a career high second in the world thanks to four wins and a bevvy of fat checks cashed since his hot streak began in October.

He’s coming off a T2 at the Open Championship and was also T10 at the U.S. Open and T12 at the Masters. Rose has made 16 cuts in a row and hasn’t finished outside the top 25 since April.

He’s 28th or better in each main strokes gained category. There is no weak club in his bag.

If not a win, Rose is a great bet to pile up points for your DFS or fantasy team lineup this week as he’s made five top-10s in a row.
