Ian Poulter didn’t have the hottest form coming into the Ryder Cup. Of course, that didn’t mean anything at all. The Englishman won two points four Europe including a win in singles.

With three weeks off since Le Golf National, Poulter is fresh for the new season. He won in 2018 at the Houston Open and had six top-10s in a PGA Tour-heavy schedule.

Poulter finished T15 in the inaugural CJ Cup. Unlike much of the field, he avoided the big number all four days to post rounds of 71-71-73-70.

He is a solid wind player and his accuracy doesn’t suffer much out of the rough versus the fairway.

I don’t see him quite winning this week, but a high finish seems logical.
