You Oughta Know: Kang eyeing final Masters invite

HUMBLE, Texas – It might not finish on schedule, but the stage is set for a wet and wild conclusion to the Shell Houston Open. Here’s what You Oughta Know heading into the finale at the Golf Club of Houston, where Sung Kang holds a three-shot lead:

• Kang, 29, has never won before on the PGA Tour. His best finish in 94 career starts came at the now-defunct Disney tournament, where he tied for third in 2011.

• With a win, Kang would become the third first-time winner of this event in the last four years, joining Matt Jones (2014) and Jim Herman (2016).
