Laird has been pounding flags on the DP World Tour and shows the same iron excellence in U.S. starts, but normally gives it all back on the greens. Gehman noted Silverado is the one stop where Laird actually putts: seven strokes gained putting across his last two appearances and only three losing weeks on these greens in a decade. Making the trip from Ireland is nothing new for the veteran, and a +1 SG/App +0.5 SG/P profile would crush his mid-6 k price tag.
