Stock Watch: Enough of the player-analyst feuds

Stock Watch: Enough of the player-analyst feuds

Each week on GolfChannel.com, well examine which players stocks and trends are rising and falling in the world of golf.RISINGMax Homa (+9%): A sports writers dream, Homa overcame layers of scar tissue and years of self-doubt to reach the pinnacle of the sport. What a cool story and what an example for those 20-something, mini-tour grinders who wonder if theyll ever make it to the Big Show.Joel Dahmen (+5%): The cancer survivor and irreverent journeyman is easy to root for, and hes getting closer and closer to that first Tour title. His gutsy up-and-down on 18 netted him another cool $263K and pushed him inside the top 100 in the world rankings for the first time. Tiger (+4%): Why do we, as media members, focus so much on Woods? Because hes the only active golfer who could win the freakin Presidential Medal of Freedom. The comeback: Complete.Pat Perez (+2%): In his first individual starts in two months, Perez gutted out a tie for eighth at the Wells Fargo despite being in excruciating pain during therapy. Not bad for a 43-year-old who thought hed be out for a year with a torn Achilles tendon.Morgan Pressel (+1%): Rather than beg and plead for a handout, Pressel instead buckled down and advanced through the 36-hole U.S. Womens Open sectional qualifier for the first time since she was 16. Respect.

FALLINGRory (-1%): His final-round retreat at Quail Hollow wasnt concerning, unless its viewed through the prism of his 93rd-best Sunday scoring average. For as well as hes played this year, McIlroy has a Players title and a bunch of what-could-have-beens.Lydia Ko (-2%): Round and round goes the Ko carousel, parting ways with her swing coach as her ball-striking stats drift toward mediocrity. Sigh.Dufs putting (-3%): Its an all-day stripe show with the irons, but its seriously uncomfortable watching Dufner suffer on the greens. On the weekend in Charlotte he holed just 70 feet of putts total and looked like it was the last place on Earth he wanted to be. Which is so relatable.Phil (-4%): Ranked 208th in driving accuracy, Mickelson is more inaccurate now than hes ever been. That doesnt bode well heading into Bethpage, where the rough is expected to be at least 4 inches deep.Brooks vs. Brandel (-5%): How are player-analyst beefs still a thing in 2019? Though we dont always agree, Chamblee isnt a clown or some hot-take artist hes more prepared than any broadcaster in sports. If his researched opinions didnt generate a reaction from golf fans, um, he wouldnt be doing his job.

Suri was the last man to gain entry into last week's WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play, the beneficiary of a late withdrawal from Joost Luiten. Suri's position inside the top 75 in the world rankings earned him a spot in Austin, but it did nothing to help him secure a tee time this week at the Golf Club of Houston.
