VICTOR PEREZ
Top ten in SG: Approach at Oakmont Perez carded back to back three-over 73s on the weekend to finish seven-over par and in a tie for 19th in the U.S. Open.
Impact Perez may have had the shot of the tournament on Friday, after making the only hole-in-one for the week on the par 3 sixth hole. It was this outstanding ball striking that allowed Perez to finish in the top-20 for the week. For the tournament, Perez gained 1.63 strokes on average on the field in SG: Approach, ranking ninth in the entire field in this category. However, it was Perez's short game that prevented him from climbing the leaderboard even more. He combined for only gaining on average 0.39 strokes on the field in SG: Putting and SG: Around the Green. Regardless, this top-20 finish now makes it two tournaments in a row with Perez finishing inside the top-20.

Ninth in SG: OTT at VidantaWorld Perez closed with a five-over 76 on Sunday at the Mexico Open at VidantaWorld to finish even-par and tied for 72nd.
Impact Perez recorded one of the field's worst final-round scores despite hitting 14 of 18 greens in regulation, losing three strokes with the flat stick en route to two bogeys and two doubles Sunday. Nonetheless, he finished the event ranked T4 in driving accuracy and ninth in SG: Off-the-Tee at Vidanta Vallarta. Perez has placed T72-MC-MC in his last three starts dating back to the Farmers Insurance Open, but he'll look to bounce back at the upcoming Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches where he tied for 16th in his PGA National debut last year.
