Short write-up this week…This is a bloodbath of a golf course that plays as hard as any on tour. The field is very weak, the epitome of that being Sungjae Im as a 10-1 favorite. With that being said, there is still tons of value to be found.
Top 20/Win
Billy Horschel (+125/+2400)
The Florida native is playing great golf and has been as consistent as any on tour over the last year, making 25 of 28 cuts. People forget he’s the #22 golfer in the OWGR. Love him in these the weaker field tournaments.
Alex Noren (+150/+3600)
Good statistical fit and finished T3 here in 2018. Starting to find his old form. Gut play.
Keith Mitchell (+150/+3700)
2019 champion who is playing the best golf of his career. Very popular pick this week for a reason.
Brian Harman (+150/+4200)
Perfect statistical fit and in good form, with a T14 in Phoenix and T3 at Torrey Pines. Look out for him to be the first round leader.
Mito Pereira (+200/+4500)
This week’s winner. Tee-to-green menace who has recently found his putting stroke. Will be a force on tour for many years to come.
Johnny Vegas (+150/+5300)
8/9 here and is a beast off the tee. Popping in statistical models. Always a threat to get hot.
