It’s time to throw on a green mesh hat, crack open a few silver bullets, and turn on some country music to prepare for this week’s John Deere Classic. It’s a track that’s seen a wide array of skill sets take home the title over the years, but fairways and birdies are always the main ingredients. TPC Deere Run gets a bad wrap because the field often resembles a swing season event, but the course is more interesting than some of the other so-called birdie fests out there.<\/span><\/p>\n

The John Deere Classic’s place on the calendar has shifted a bit after the Scottish Open became a co-sanctioned PGA Tour\/DP World Tour event the week <\/span>prior to<\/span> The Open Championship. It’s impacted the field strength again, but I’ll take TPC Deere Run over Detroit Golf Club and TPC Twin Cities all day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Located on the Illinois side of the Illinois\/Iowa border along the Mississippi River, TPC Deere Run features wide sloping fairways, receptive bentgrass greens, and numerous elevation changes and doglegs. <\/span>It is very scoreable for players who excel at strategically managing their way around the course <\/span>instead of<\/span> trying to overpower it.<\/span> Winners have eclipsed the 18-under mark in each of the last 15 tournaments, so strong recent results from the low-scoring Travelers and Rocket Mortgage are a good place to start when looking at the betting board this week. <\/span><\/p>\n

Even with generous and forgiving fairways that average over 36 yards wide, TPC Deere Run, a public par-71 course that measures 7,289 yards, is typically not a course that bombers can overpower. It is tree-lined but not tight. Laying up and avoiding dangerous areas is the best strategy for numerous holes. Straying from fairways is costly as the course is protected by the thick 4\u2033 penal rough, strategic fairway bunkering, and creative mounding that causes uneven lies. With numerous doglegs, the ability to shape the ball off the tee is advantageous.<\/span><\/p>\n
