new 700x28c tire, lots of flats

I just got a new fyxation 28c tire, and I've gotten 3 flats this weekend. I didn't have any flats on my old tires. I'm using velox tape and I don't feel anything sharp where it popped.
The whole is next to the valve on the edge of the oval.

I'm using specialized 700x20/28c tubes.
All the other threads I checked said regular tubes would be fine for a 28c tire.

Should I try new rim tape even though it looks fine? The hole isn't even on top of a spoke hole.
