The PGA RETURNS: The Course
The PGA Tour returns with the Colonial Country Club. This 7,000 yards Par 70 course is a private golf club in the southern United States, located in Fort Worth, Texas. Colonial Country Club was founded in 1936 by Marvin Leonard chiefly out of a desire to introduce Bentgrass greens to the area. Some people viewed Mr. Leonard’s determination to see Bentgrass greens succeed in the Southwest as a sign of his tenacity, but those who knew him better, recognized it as pure bullheadedness.

PGAtour.com’s Power Rankings
1 | Jon Rahm | Age 25. His ability transcends analytics. Part of the proof was a T2 as a 22-year-old debutant here in 2017. He chased it with a T5 in 2018. |
2 | Webb Simpson | Age 34. Furthermore his victory at TPC Scottsdale four months ago punctuated a flurry of five podium finishes in a span of just nine TOUR starts. |
3 | Rory McIlroy | Age 31. First appearance. The world’s top-ranked golfer entered the hiatus with seven consecutive top fives worldwide. |
4 | Kevin Na | Age 36. He’s tended to weave around expectations over time, but there’s no denying the veteran’s record at Colonial. One 61 and two 62s in his 4th-Win burst here since 2018. |
5 | Brooks Koepka | Age 30. Not only defied empirical evidence en route to a solo second with a pair of 63s in his debut at Colonial in 2018, it’s an example of his success in non-majors. |
6 | Justin Thomas | Age 27. First appearance. The two-time winner this season has another three top-six finishes. But expectations are high emerging from the hiatus, even in his debut. |
7 | Kevin Kisner | Age 36. The bull’s-eye of predictive factors and already a champion at Colonial (2017). |
8 | Marc Leishman | Age 36. The Aussie wouldn’t complain if the wind freshened, but he’s in a sweet intersection of age and experience. |
9 | Tony Finau | Age 30. He’s exhibited the ability to adapt to every track for years. That includes last year’s solo second at Colonial where his scoring average in 16 rounds is 68.94. |
10 | Ryan Palmer | Age 43. Since the Colonial member is used to navigating the course sans fans, that could present a serious edge this week. |
