Is this the year of the Ellies? 🤔 Jeremiah Ellis is halfway to a cornhole grand slam after winning National Singles at the first two pro events of the season. At this rate, he’s looking like a strong contender for Rookie of the Year, Man of the Year, and ACL MVP. 🏆 pic.twitter.com/JR1roZsa2S

The 32-year old has the fifth-best PPR average (10.23) in the league. He also has the third highest point differential (0.60) to go along with his lethal offense. Overall, he is 42-11 and is boasting the highest percentage of rounds won (43.41) of any top 5 players. His 79.14 BAGSIN% is the highest of any player inside of the top 10.
He will not have an easy path to the championship with opponents like Guy (+1800), Jamie Graham (+800), and Adam Hisser (+1500) who took down the ACL Final Chase title in July. However, his ability to rise to the occasion has Ellis as a heavy favorite for a reason this weekend.
