Sergio Garcia nearly won consecutive tournaments last week. A Sunday 64 by Lee Westwood resorted Garcia to solo second last week at the Nedbank Golf Challenge, but it was another high result after a win a few weeks ago at the Valderrama Masters.

He’s up to three top-10s in a row and four straight top-25s.

Garcia is a great bet this week for fantasy owners as he should at least land you a top-25. His worst result in seven starts at the DP World Tour Championship is a T21 in 2010 and his best came just last year when he finished T4.

Garcia hit 83.3 percent of his greens on the Earth Course in 2017 and could certainly replicate that effort. He’s fourth on the Euro Tour in strokes gained tee to green and 28th in greens in regulation.

The Spaniard has also been a slight positive this season on and around the greens, which you’ll take any day.

He’s taken five of the last seven weeks off, so Garcia should be ready to go at a familiar course this week.
