Patton Kizzire is currently ranked No. 21 in the FedEx Cup playoffs, and with the BMW Championship being a no-cut event, all he needs to do is finish out the four rounds this weekend. That’s good news for him as well, as he is only -1 through two rounds, and currently tied for 57th.

On the season, Kizzire has won two events. He beat James Hahn in a playoff to win the Sony Open back in January. His first win was the OHL Classic at Mayakoba nearly a year ago at the start of the season.

It’s been a rough go of it lately, with the early wins being the only thing keeping Kizzire’s points so high. He missed nine of 13 cuts from early March through early August.

The best part of Kizzire’s game this year has been his shots gained on approach shots, at .390. This puts him at 37th in the PGA this season.

The stats don’t look great for Kizzire either. His driving accuracy is 175th on tour at 54.8%, and putting is 146th at 1.635 putts per hole. He’s much better when he hits GIR, coming in at 61st on putting average. Even though he is guaranteed in with finishing his rounds, his poor performances of late leave him at No. 10 on this list.
