These are the 10 most interested golfers, who
have the chance to win the last major award of the year (summed up by Golfweek
review).

97

Current form: a victory at the European Tour
(the Corales Puntacana Championship), 3 times in the Top 10. Ranked 29th in the
PGA Championship, level 16 in U.S. Open.

Northern Ireland golfer one of the major concerns at the major this time.
9. Jordan Spieth
Current position on the World Ranking (OWGR):
38
Best position at The Open: Championship 2017
Current performance: slow start at the
beginning of the season. However, golfers born in 1993 are regaining
confidence, as evidenced by the 3rd place at the PGA Championship

in the form of links, big wind. In addition, the ability to accurately cast the
ball is returning to Spieth. He is currently in the Top 10 best golfers at the
PGA Tour.

tournament to end the title thirst for the past 2 years since The Open 2017.

course.

11
Best position at The Open: runners-up in 2018
Current form: one victory (Sentry Tournament
of Champions), runner-up Masters, 3rd place at U.S. Open.

Molinari. This year Xander Schauffele will have a chance to make a mistake at
Portrush, in the tournament that he attended for the second time.

Current position on the World Ranking (OWGR):
7

Current performance: Although there was only
one victory (Arnold Palmer Invitational) after the Open Open last year, but the

the Top 10. the world in the long run. The best position in Molinari's 3 major
2019 major leagues is 5th place at the Masters.

for more than a month, after failing to cross the Cut Round at The Open.

cold golf courses, especially at golf courses outside the United States.

consistency that American golfers have shown after the second position at
