TV Broadcast: Golf Channel/NBC
Brian Harman
One long shot who can definitely make a run at the Deutsche Bank title is Brian Harman. The Georgia native has finished in the top-25 in three of his last six starts, including a tie for eighth at the Barbasol Championship. Thanks to his late-season exploits, Harman has stormed into the 67th spot in the FedExCup rankings with 787 points to his name. Harman will look to fortify his spot in the playoffs with a solid performance this week at TPC Boston. He finished tied for 12th in last year’s Deutsche Bank Championship, shooting a six-under-par total of 278.Hudson Swafford
Looking for a worthy long shot at the Deutsche Bank Championship this week? How about the hard-hitting Hudson Swafford? The 28-year-old American is one of the longest hitters on the PGA Tour, averaging a whopping 306.9 yards per drive this season. That’s eighth-best on tour this campaign. That extreme length off the tee will be a major weapon for Swafford as he tackles the long 7,297-yard, par-71 TPC Boston course here in Norton. Swafford survived his 11th consecutive cut at the Barclays tournament, finishing in a tie for 41st last week with a one-over-par total of 285.
Jerry Kelly
Another long shot who can definitely surprise this week is Jerry Kelly. The 49-year-old may be ranked just 61st in the FedExCup rankings but he can improve on that standing with a solid showing here at the Deutsche Bank Championship. Blair loves playing in this golf tournament as evidenced by his ninth-place showing in this event last year.
What makes Kelly such a threat in every golf tournament that he competes on is his solid hitting off the tee. He is third in the PGA Tour in driving accuracy percentage with a remarkable 71.10 percent clip. That incredible precision will come in handy for the veteran when tackling the narrow fairways of this notoriously tough TPC Boston course.
