In this article, we will look at five PGA Tour stars who will be in action at the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic.
#5 Akshay Bhatia
American golfer Akshay Bhatia will be a star attraction at the 2024 Rocket Morgage Classic. Until now, the 2024 season has been a positive campaign for Bhatia. Not only did he make the cut in a lot of important tournaments but he also managed to win the Valero Texas Open.
In his last outing on the PGA Tour, Bhatia played at the Travelers Championship. He finished T5 with a score of 64-65-64-69. Before that, Bhatia also had a decent outing at the US Open where he finished T15.
#4 Rickie Fowler
Rickie Fowler's 2024 season has been full of mixed results. While he made the cut in some tournaments, he missed it in others. However, what makes Folwer a star attraction at the tournament is his experience and the fact that he is the defending champion.
In his last event on the tour, Rickie Fowler played at the Travelers Championship where he finished T20 and displayed some good golf. It will be interesting to see if he will be able to do better at the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic.
#3 Min Woo Lee
Australian professional golfer Min Woo Lee had a successful 2024 US Open. Woo Lee finished T21 at the tournament, which is a good position at a Major. However, Woo Lee's best finish in 2024 came at the Cognizant Classic where he tied for second place.
Due to his performance at the 2024 US Open, Woo Lee has a ton of momentum heading into the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic. It will be interesting to see if he can pull off a win at the tournament.
#2 Cameron Young
American Cameron Young is heading into the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic with some good performances on the PGA Tour. In the Travelers Championship, the last tournament he played, Young finished T9. He looked strong in all the four rounds he played and that's why he will be a favorite heading into the tournament.
#1 Tom Kim
At the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic, Tom Kim will be one of the biggest favorites. The reason behind the same is his performance at the 2024 Travelers Championship. At the event, Kim forced his good friend Scottie Scheffler to playoffs.
While Kim did not manage to win, he looked good against the World No. 1. If Kim can win the Rocket Mortgage Classic, he will earn his first victory on the PGA Tour this season.
