Player Preview
$12,000 to $10,000- Xander and Cantlay are up top but Cantlay are scaring me. Problems outside of golf for happening for Cantlay which mentally is not making them stand out. Palmer and Rahm are the favorites to me based on recent form plus history together, this is Palmers course. Wolf and Morikawa are good friends but my main issue is Wolff who has fallen off an cliff. Smith and Leishman can do well and not an bad pairing. Bubba and Scheffler, this team can get hot and can do well here.Champ and Finau is an team that worries me and don't compliment each other based on putting. Billy Ho and Burns can do well with strokes gained. Willet and Hatton compliment each other which can be an low owned team. Kirk and Todd compliment each other so well, they can workout so well together if both can win off of their strengths. Both were roommates and such good friends which an good boost also.
$9,900 to $9,000- Homa and Gooch both are great friends, I love this a ton to be honest. They can do well together. Rose and Stenson will be overrated to me, both have not been the same this year. Bradley and Steele both are ball strikers which the putting for Steele has stepped up, not an bad pairing. An and Im are not the greatest of pairing, An driver has been awful and Im irons are not there. Grace and Varner, Grace has looked good and HV3 has been on an hot streak. Griffin and Joel is an interesting team with Griffin coming in is an huge step up.
$8,900 to $8,000- Ghim and Suh in this range stand out by far! Frittelli and Streelman can both pop off so not an bad option. Hoffman and Watney is an one man band, Hoffman will have to carry this team so no thank you because of Watney. EVS and Clark are interesting to me. An tourney pairing but meh to me. Triangle and Castro team can pop off and an low owned option.
$7,900 to $7,000- Nesmith and Seifert is an okay team, Smith will have to carry this team also. Werenski and Uhnlein, U is in great form and love this. Bramlett team has been great on strokes gained approach with Maverick. Mitchell and Sned can go up and down which is scary but upside.
