Power rankings: John Deere Classic
There's one week to go until the British Open, and the PGA Tour makes its final pre-Open stop at the John Deere Classic, played at TPC Deere Run in Silvis, Ill. The tournament typically has a somewhat underwhelming field, but two-time 2015 major winner Jordan Spieth maintained his commitment to the event which he won in 2013, elevating the status of this week's event.
Brian Harman is the defending champion here, breaking through for his first PGA Tour win last year. He's a good look this week, but here are our top five players:
1. Jordan Spieth -- Best player on the planet that can walk on two feet (sorry, Rory). He's playing this out of a sense of commitment to a tournament that gave him an exemption as an amateur. Site to his first PGA Tour win in 2013. Winning isn't the objective, but getting in contention is, like he did at Memorial before the U.S. Open.
2. Kevin Kisner -- Eventually, this guy is going to catch a break and win -- hopefully, in regulation. Kisner is playing far to well to fade him now.
3. Zach Johnson -- Zach Johnson has been on the medal stand here in five of his last six starts. This is a total horse-for-course pick and he leads the B-flight.
4. Steve Stricker -- Stricker has seen very limited action this year, but this event is a special week for him. Home to a near 59 of his, Stricker won here from 2009-11 and has been in the top 11 in the three years since. Just pick him and ignore the missed cut at Greenbrier.
5. Tony Finau -- We're going to keep nagging you about Tony Finau until you take notice. He was T-13 at Greenbrier for a seventh-consecutive top-25 finish. C'mon, man. Pick him.
