Akshay is also building his star power and is in contention. Lots of intriguing stories to follow.
There have always been mid level fields at various parts of the pga tour and we're in a stretch of just coming off 3 big events, and go back to a couple weeks of 2 of the biggest PGA Tour events.
Sure it would be fun to have Bryson back and maybe one or two others, but they wouldn't be playing this week or next either if they were on tour.

I dunno.
If there was ever a no-name event....its this week. This one isn't even mid-level IMO. Its essentially the Korn Ferry Tour on the PGA.
There are always going to be good stories with the amount of guys playing these days, but im watching the golf channel right now and they are trying reallly hard to generate a narrative to make up for the lack of star power in todays coverage.
Gonna guess the ratings for this will be amongst the worst of the year.
