Pressure Performance Analysis

Summary 
Chase has been generally nervy in contention.  His Golf Betting Club Pressure Performance Rating is set to ⭐⭐.  His first win is likely to come from off the pace.

August 2021
✅ Four shots back going into the final round of the Hero Open, Chase shot a 69 to move up from eight to sixth.

July 2021
❌ Began the final round of the Cazoo Open in 2nd place, albeit six shots behind Nacho Elvira.  Once again, shot his worst score of the week to slip back to 6th.

June 2021
✅ Chase started the final round of the Open de Bretagne four shots back of Julien Brun.  A final round 67 saw him move up to 2nd spot but he lost out by two shots to Brun.

June 2021
❌ Third through 54 holes at the Challenge de Espana, Chase shot a final round 69 (again his worst of the week) to slip to 7th.

May 2021
❌ Joint leader at the Dimension Data Pro-Am with 18 holes to go, Chase shot a final round 71 to slip to 3rd.  That was the first time he had held a 54 hole lead.  Three bogeys in four holes on the back nine cost him any chance of a win.

Trends

Stays Hot
Chase is one to keep an eye on after he's posted a good finish.  In 2021 he finished 6th, 7th and 2nd on the Challenge Tour in consecutive weeks.  He then recorded finishes of 6th, 6th and 6th in consecutive events later in the year.

Events to back Hanna

Open de Espana
Chase took to playing in Spain last year on the Challenge Tour, recording three top eight finishes in the country.  Club de Campo requires accurate approach play and that could suit Chase nicely.  He is also on record as saying Spain is his favourite country in Europe to play in.

Playoff Record

Chase has yet to be in a playoff.
