GLOVER REACHES NEW HEIGHTS |
LUCAS GLOVER AT BEST ON TOUGH COURSES |
The Fed Ex Playoffs get under way this week with The Barclays being staged at the |
Liberty National course in New York. It is the first time the course has held a PGA Tour |
event but we do know it is set to be tough. All courses in America are given a difficulty |
rating and this one has been classed as one of the most difficult. |

GLOVER HAS PLAYED HIS BEST GOLF ON TOUGH COURSES THIS SEASON |
|
| |
Lucas Glover is having by far and away the best season of his career and after landing the US Open he looks set to |
reach new heights. When you take a closer look at Glover's results it becomes clear he thrives on difficult courses. |
His best performances have all come on tough golf course when the scoring is relatively high. The US Open is |
obviously a perfect example of this but there are many others worth noting. |

GLOVER WON THE US OPEN AND FINISHED 5TH IN THE US PGA CHAMPIONSHIP |
|
| |
Glover finished 5th at the PGA Championship at Hazeltine which has a difficulty rating of 78. He finished T3 at the |
Buick Invitational (Torrey Pines - 78.1), T2 at Quail Hollow (74.9) and T5 at the AT & T National (Congressional - |
75.4). The Liberty National, the host course this week has a difficulty rating of 77.9 so will suit Glover down to the |
ground. Glover plays these courses so well because of his superb driving. In fact only Jonathan Byrd is rating as a |
better driver out of all the players on the PGA Tour. |

|
GLOVER IS CURRENTLY 5TH IN THE FED EX RANKINGS AND HAS REAL CHANCE OF WINNING |
|
| |
He drives it nearly 300 yards on average and still hits 66.61% of fairways, The rest of Glover's stats are equally |
impressive. Glover has made more birdies than anyone else on the PGA Tour and is 5t th in the Scoring Average. He |
comes into the playoffs with a real chance of landing the big prize, currently 5th in the race. Quite simply bookmakers |
have underestimated Glover and looks well worth a bet at odds of 55/1 at Blue Square. |
