The Sleeper Report: Fantasy Golf Sleepers, Long Shots, and Undervalued Picks for the 2015 Quicken Loans National

The 2015 Quicken Loans National Preview

The PGA TOUR now heads to Gainesville, VA for one of the fresher tournaments on TOUR, the Quicken Loans National (formally the AT&T National), which has been held annually since the 2007 season.  The event is one of five during the year with “invitational status” and will feature 120 participants as Tiger Woods and his Tiger Woods Foundation host at the par-71, 7,385-yard course which has been the site of four President’s Cup tourneys between 1994 and 2005.

The field this year is very top-heavy with three top-15 players in No. 7 Justin Rose, No. 8 Rickie Fowler, and No. 14 Jimmy Walker making the trek to Virginia.  They are joined by No. 30 Bill Haas from the top-30 in the Official World Golf Rankings.  Also making his way to the course will be Ollie Schniederjans who is making is pro debut after being the No. 1 amateur in the world and finishing in 12th with an impressive score of nine-under-par at the Open just a few weeks ago.

As with most of the non-major PGA events, plenty of Americans have won here in the past with Tiger Woods winning his own tournament on two separate occasions (2009, 2012).  Most of the other installments of this event have finished with a fairly low score, the best outing being a score of 13-under twice—once by Tiger Woods (2009) and once by Nick Watney (2011).  The outlier here is Englishman Justin Rose, who took down the trophy twice, including last year when he won with the lowest score (-4) since the inception of the tournament.  He won in a playoff over Scott Piercy in what was obviously a hard-played event with a mere 10 golfers posting red numbers at week’s end.

As the FedExCup season begins to near its end, it’s more important than ever for players to perform if they want to be in the top-125 at the conclusion of the regular season in four weeks.  So let’s take a look through the field at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club to see which “sleepers” see who has a chance at cashing a big check.
