David Lipsky ($6,400; 58 FPTS) has not had a good 2024. In 20 tournaments, he’s missed the cut in 13 of them, with three of those coming recently. He also withdrew from another. In the six tournaments that he played all four rounds, he finished in the top-10 once.
After Thursday’s first round at the Procore Championship, Lipsky is in good position, leading the field by one stroke after shooting a seven-under 65.
On the front nine, he racked up three birdies before bogeying the final hole. On the back nine, he notched five birdies.
In the $300K Sand Trap tournament, Lipsky is rostered on only 0.37% of teams.
The highest rostered player is Corey Conners ($9,800; 15.5 FPTS). He did not have a pleasant Thursday, as he went one-over 73 and is currently T100.
Conners bogeyed two of the first three holes, got those back with two birdies, but then had another bogey and a birdie to close out the front nine. On the the back nine, he bogeyed holes 11, 12 and 13 before notching birdies on holes 14 and 15.
DK Sportsbook has Lipsky at +2200 to win it all, the sixth-lowest odds. Conners is at +9000.
Sahith Theegala ($10,600; 25 FPTS) is currently the favorite at +1000. He shot a three-under 69 on Thursday.
