Tommy Fleetwood Should Thrive This Week at TPC River Highlands
The solid run of play continued for Tommy Fleetwood last week, as he finished T11 at the US Open. Nothing statistically popped for him, though, as he ranked in the top 20 in nearly every strokes gained category, but nothing higher than 13th (Strokes gained around the green: 0.61). His next start comes this Thursday at the Travelers Championship, where he finished runner-up last season. All signs point directly to a similar week this time, as the 35-year-old has finished T11 or better in four of his last five events. The lone problem is the fact that Fleetwood isn't performing as well on par 4s as he is on par 3s and 5s. That shouldn't have much effect on his DFS viability, but it certainly lowers win equity. Either way, he is a worthy addition to any lineups he finds himself in.

Wyndham Clark Coming Off Redeeming US Open Victory
It was a special week for Wyndham Clark, who completed a wire-to-wire victory at the 126th US Open on Sunday to claim his second career major and US Open title. Before he can take some time to celebrate, he is making the trip to Connecticut this week for the Travelers Championship. It will be his ninth career appearance, with two of his three top 20 finishes coming in the last two seasons. The course length and overall tightness from tee to green diminish Clark's length advantage, but his impressive iron play and putting form over the last several weeks should easily make up the difference. Since his victory at the CJ Cup, the 32-year-old has averaged 1.48 strokes gained putting, 1.027 on approach, and 0.805 around the green. That kind of production will play anywhere. However, a repeat performance of the caliber of last week at Shinnecock shouldn't be expected.

Bud Cauley Needs Good Putting to Succeed at TPC River Highlands
Bud Cauley followed up his win in Canada with a T56 finish last week at the US Open. He still maintained a quality level of ball striking form, but uncharacteristically lost over four strokes on the greens. The 36-year-old is in the field this week for the Travelers Championship, the last Signature Event of the season. It will be his 10th start in this event, where he's only finished inside the top 25 three times. It's a bit unusual, given his strong wedge and short iron ability, but averaging -0.836 strokes gained on the greens is the likely culprit. He's playing well enough to be a major contender this week if he performs better with the flat stick. His victory didn't do much to affect DFS pricing much, making him an excellent pick toward the lower end of the board, especially for riskier lineups.

Sam Burns Looks to Shake Off US Open Letdown at Travelers Championship
It was another close call at a US Open title for Sam Burns, who was the only player to make a real charge on Sunday at Shinnecock when he birdied four of his opening eight holes. He stumbled late with a bogey on 15 and missed another opportunity on 17 that would have landed him in a playoff. Still, it was a great performance throughout the bag, as he ranked third in the field in strokes gained on approach (1.55) and from tee to green (2.28). He'll get his next chance at victory this week in Cromwell, Connecticut at the Travelers Championship, where he finished T17 last year. The 29-year-old should be among the favorites statistically, as he ranks well in par-4 scoring and birdie or better percentage on the season. The issue will be judging his play based on his emotionally draining week on Long Island. For that reason alone, he may be better left on the shelf to avoid his high ownership level incase he doesn't produce.
