Former Tiger continues hot streak into John Deere Classic
By: Cameron Burnett July 8, 2023

Former Clemson golfer and PGA veteran Lucas Glover made a ton of noise in the Rocket Mortgage Classic, rising up the board 40 spots Saturday before carding a top-five finish. This is a trend for Glover, who has two top-20 finishes in his last three starts and his first top-five of the season.

The momentum continued into the John Deere Classic. After a quiet first day 69, Glover caught fire with seven birdies on Friday to move into a tie for 10th at -8. During the round, he almost holed out for eagle, which would’ve placed him right outside the top five.

Glover’s success can be partially credited to a massive change on the greens. Swapping from conventional to a long putter, he’s confident as he finishes every hole. The 179th best putter in strokes gained, he was fifth in the stat at the Rocket Mortgage Classic and now it’s paying off yet again. With his current pace, he could compete for his second victory at this tournament. The John Deere Classic champion in 2021, Glover has great momentum to compete for another win at 43 years old heading into the weekend. He will continue his run Saturday, teeing off at 12:22 p.m.
