Webb Simpson will be eager to redeem himself when he competes at the 2020 RSM Classic

The American star is one of the best golf players in the world and he is currently ranked sixth on the Official World Golf Ranking.
 
Simpson finished second at last year's RSM Classic behind champion Tyler Duncan.

Simpson's first two victories on the PGA Tour came at the Wyndham Championship and at the Deutsche Bank Championship, a FedEx Cup playoff event in 2011.
 
These wins helped him finish in second on the Tour's money list and he went on to win the 2012 U.S. Open and the 2018 Players Championship.
 
2020 has been a good year for Simpson having won the Waste Management Phoenix Open in a playoff over Tony Finau in February.
 
Simpson then clinched the RBC Heritage at Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head, South Carolina by one stroke over Abraham Ancer in June.

The former world number four has discussed his form ahead of the RSM Classic having finished at T10 at the recent 2020 Masters' Tournament. 
 
“I feel like I'm a pretty conservative golfer as it is," Simpson said. 
 
"But I didn't feel like I was giving some of these greens and approach shots enough credit for how severe the short side can be. 
 
"So we just shifted a little bit of our focus to kind of being ultra-safe and know that there's four par 5s, I'm going to have birdie opportunities," he added. 
 
"And when I did that, I started shooting better scores, making more birdies.”
