Will Zalatoris Open Championship History
This week will be Zalatoris’s second Open Championship appearance and first time playing the Old Course at St Andrews. In his first appearance in 2021, Zalatoris was doing well after a first-round 69. However, he withdrew before the start of the second round due to an injury.
Will Zalatoris Recent Form
Zalatoris enters this week in his usual form as he has made the cut in two of his last four tournaments, with both of those made cuts resulting in top-five finishes. This trend is common for Zalatoris as he always seems to either miss the cut or finish inside the top-five, seldom finding himself between those two extremes.
Last weekend, Zalatoris missed the cut at the Genesis Scottish Open. It has been quite the roller coaster for Zalatoris recently as he has made the cut in just five of his last eight tournaments, but all five of those made-cuts resulted in a top-10 finish.
Will Zalatoris Open Championship Predictions
At just 25 years old, Zalatoris has already established himself as one of the world’s best golfers. The sky is the limit for the California native, and I expect yet another dominant Major Championship outing.
Excluding his withdrawal from the Open Championship in 2021, Zalatoris has finished inside the top-10 in each of his last five Major Championship appearances. Iron play will be essential at the Old Course, and Zalatoris ranks first on Tour in SG Tee to Green and first in SG Approach the Green.
One of the best iron players in the world, Zalatoris will need his putter to finish the job for him this weekend and finally earn that first Major victory. I predict Zalatoris will finish inside the top five, and I will be rooting for him to finally grab that victory.
