The Outlook

Levy is not someone I am interested in for DFS purposes or in the betting market. Over the past six weeks, he owns an awful Adjusted Round Score of 73. Within that time frame, he hit just 54.2% of GIR and 48.8% of fairways. Those metrics won’t translate well at Carnoustie.


The Metrics

Here's how Levy ranks in the British Open field in several key metrics. For many more, be sure to check out the FantasyLabs PGA Models.

  • Long-Term Adjusted Round Score: T-79th
  • Recent Adjusted Round Score: T-128th
  • Strokes Gained: Tee-to-Green: N/A
  • Long-Term Greens in Regulation: T-44th
  • Strokes Gained: Approach: N/A
  • Long-Term Putts Per Round: T-89th
