BMW Championship 2022 Betting Preview

by WagerHome Blog on August 16, 2022

The FedEx Cup Playoffs head to the second event of three, as the PGA’s best move to Delaware for the BMW Championship at the South Course at Wilmington Country Club.

Never again do we have to refer to Will Zalatoris as the golfer most likely to get his first win. He finally finished atop the leaderboard on Sunday, and now Zalatoris can go about the business of trying to win the Cup.

Of course, the entirety of the Tour’s top players are here, and the BMW Championship will feel as close to a Major as you can get.

Favorites to Win BMW Championship

Rory McIlroy (+1000)
Jon Rahm (+1200)
Will Zalatoris (+1200)
Patrick Cantlay (+1400)
Scottie Scheffler (+1400)
Justin Thomas (+1400)
Tony Finau (+1400)
Matt Fitzpatrick (+1600)
Xander Schauffele (+1800)
Colin Morikawa (+2000)

Rory McIlroy was not great last week in Memphis, and he failed to make the cut. But this is still Rory McIlroy, and the course in Wilmington matches his strengths perfectly. He is the BMW Championship favorite, and his status is deserved.

Jon Rahn has been fairly absent for the last couple of weeks, but in the opening round of the FedEx Cup Playoffs, he led the field in greens in regulation, and he finished on Sunday with a T5.

Will Zalatoris was clear after his win last week that it’s great to have the monkey off his back, but that one win has not satisfied his hunger. Part of that hunger is fueled by just how close he has come in the major championships this season. The other part is how close he is now to winning the end-of-season prize.

And don’t sleep on Matt Fitzpatrick even though he’s only eighth on the favorites board. The U.S. Open champion was consistently good at the St. Jude last week, going 68-66-67-68.

Others to Consider at the BMW Championship

He’s no longshot, paying +2500, but Sungjae Im does present some good value when you consider that he was a runner-up twice in the last month, and last week he was 12th.

Max Homa is paying +4500, and he’s largely an afterthought this week. But he won the Wells Fargo in May and was T5 at the Memorial in June. He also got off to a great start last week in Memphis – a first round 66 – before he faded at the end.

A true BMW Championship longshot is Keegan Bradley at +7500. But when it comes to similar courses to Wilmington, he’s played well this year. That includes a T7 at the U.S. Open and a T2 at the Wells Fargo.

Wyndham Championship 2022 Betting Preview

by WagerHome Blog on August 2, 2022

Wyndham Championship is the 46th and final PGA Tour event of the 2021-2022 season. That’s one final event for players who are looking to keep their playing status for next season and one final event for players to get into the FedEx Cup Playoffs.

The Wyndham Championship had proven to be an excellent test in recent years, especially last year when six players all finished 72 holes tied atop the leaderboard. In the six-man playoff that followed, it was Kevin Kisner getting the win.

Favorites to Win Wyndham Championship

Sungjae Im (+1400)
Shane Lowry (+1600)
Will Zalatoris (+1600)
Billy Horschel (+2000)
Russell Henley (+2200)
Webb Simpson (+2200)
Corey Conners (+2500)
Si Woo Kim (+2500)
Adam Scott (+3300)
Denny McCarthy (+3300)
Joohyung Kim (+3300)
Taylor Pendrith (+3300)
Tyrrell Hatton (+3300)

Sungjae Im is a deserved favorite. He’s coming off a T2 at the 3M, and in three starts at the Wyndham Championship, he has a pair of top-10s. He’s also been a fast starter here, going as low as 62 in his first round.

Will Zalatoris is still looking for his first victory. He was T6 at the Masters, T4 in New Orleans, second at the PGA, and T2 at the U.S. Open. Surely he can parlay those great finishes in bug events to a win in North Carolina. Of course, we say the same thing every week.

Billy Horschel at +2000 deserves a look because of his history here. He did win at the Memorial this season, but at Sedgefield, he has been brilliant over the years.

His last two starts here are second place and sixth place finishes, and overall he has been in the top-11 four different times. In his career, he has won $1,251,176 just at the Wyndham Championship.

Longer Shots to Consider at Wyndham Championship

J.T. Poston is an excellent play at +4000. He won this event in 2019, and just a month ago, he was T2 at the Travelers and a winner at the John Deere Classic. Two weeks ago, he finished T11 at the 3M Open.

Kevin Kisner, the defending champion, is also paying +4000. He was T6 at the Travelers and T21 at The Open Championship. Along with his win here, he also has three other top-10s, including a third-place finish in 2020.

Davis Riley, all the way down at +5000, was second at the Valspar, T4 in New Orleans, fifth at the Mexico Open, T9 at the Byron Nelson, and T4 at the Charles Schwab.

We are just one week away from the start of the FedEx Cup Playoffs. The NFL preseason kicks off this week with the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio. Plus, the baseball pennant races get into full swing now that we’re into August.

3M Open 2022 Betting Preview

by WagerHome Blog on July 19, 2022

The PGA Tour says goodbye to links golf for another season and the scrambling through weather, rough, and pot bunkers that make St. Andrews such a test. This week they say hello to the required long and accurate drives of the 3M Open in Blaine, Minnesota.

This is the fourth installment of this event as a post-Open Championship return to the States, and in each of the previous three years, it has featured longer and more accurate drives than nearly every other PGA Tour event.

Newly crowned Open champion Cameron Smith won’t be here as he celebrates his first ever win. But you will get to see, and possibly wager on, Open participants Hideki Matsuyama, Sungjae Im, and Tony Finau.

Favorites to Win 3M Open

Tony Finau (+1400)
Hideki Matsuyama (+1600)
Sungjae Im (+1600)
Maverick McNealy (+2200)
Adam Hadwin (+2500)
Cam Davis (+2500)
Davis Riley (+2500)
Sahith Theegala (+2500)
Cameron Tringale (+2800)
Adam Long (+3300)
Chez Reavie (+3300)
J.T. Poston (+3300)

Not surprising that the three men at the top of the 3M Open favorites board just played in Scotland. Tony Finau is the favorite, and he’s been in the top-30 in five of his last six starts; and in his final round at St. Andrews, he shot six-under par.

Hideki Matsuyama shot a final round 67 at St. Andrews and is coming back to the States, where he last finished fourth at the U.S. Open. His trip to Scotland wasn’t terribly fruitful, but he has four top-10 finishes in the United States this season.

Sungjae Im finished the Open T81 after missing the cut at both the Scottish Open and the U.S. Open. But right before that, he was T10 at the Memorial, and let’s not forget he was T8 at the Masters.

Longer Shots to Consider at 3M Open

Chris Gotterup (+4000) hasn’t played a lot this season – only six events – but he’s only missed two cuts, and he has a pair of top-10 finishes – T7 at the Puerto Rico Open and T4 at the John Deere Classic in early July.

Cameron Champ (+5000) has missed five straight cuts, including the John Deere Classic a couple of weeks ago. But he was T6 at the Mexico Open, he had that incredible T10 at the Masters, and Champ is the defending champ here at the 3M Open.

Brice Garnett hasn’t won on tour in four years, and he’s missed eight of his ten cuts. But you want to consider him because he’s paying +10000, and he’s played well in the three previous 3M Opens, finishing 16th last year with a final round 68.

Pay Per Head Software

We are down to three PGA Tour events before the FedExCup Playoffs begin. NFL training camps are opening around the league, and Major League Baseball begins its march to October following the All-Star break.

The Honda Classic Betting Preview

by WagerHome Blog on February 22, 2022

The field isn’t the best this week at PGA National. After every member of the world’s top-10 teed it up at Riviera, every member of world’s top-10 is taking his time in getting to Florida for a month of tournaments there. The Honda Classic is the first of four straight events in the Sunshine State, and none of the world’s best are playing.

It could be that rest is needed, or it could be that the course played as the third-most difficult non-major course on tour in 2021. At last year’s event, 270 balls found their way into the water, and with high winds in the forecast for this week, that number is expected to climb.

What that means is that in this year’s edition of The Honda Classic – everything can change on any given hole.

Favorites to Win The Honda Classic

Sungjae Im (+1200)
Daniel Berger (+1600)
Joaquin Niemann (+1800)
Louis Oosthuizen (+1800)
Billy Horschel (+2000)
Brooks Koepka (+2200)
Tommy Fleetwood (+2200)
Shane Lowry (+2800)
Alex Noren (+3300)
Keith Mitchell (+3300)

Sungjae Im is your favorite, as the only member of this group of favorites who finished in the top-10 at last year’s tournament. He was tied for eighth at -5. He won here in 2020, and four weeks ago at the Farmers, he finished tied for sixth with a -13.

Daniel Berger has been a tough one to figure out in 2022, having withdrawn from Pebble Beach, even though he was the defending champion. Then Berger missed the cut at the Phoenix Open. But he also finished fifth at the Sentry Tournament of Champions with a -25 and was top-20 at the Farmers Insurance Open.

Berger was also fourth at The Honda Classic in 2020, his last time in the event, and he has a runner-up at PGA National from 2015.

Alex Noren, paying +3300 is also a good value play. He recently tied for sixth at the Phoenix Open, and he’s a good par grinder on a tough course, which is exactly the kind of player who can get it done this week.

Longshots Worth a Look

Because of all the water, ball striking is key at PGA National. Jhonattan Vegas, who is paying +5000, has been the fourth-best ball-striker over the last 50 rounds. He also finished with a T4 at this event in 2017.

Mackenzie Hughes is another very good value play at +5000. He just had a T16 at Pebble Beach, and when he played at PGA National in 2020, he was the runner-up to Im’s tournament win.

Chris Kirk is also paying +5000 and is coming off a T14 at the Phoenix Open. He’s played The Honda Classic every year since 2011 and has finished as high as 12th.
