Round 1 Wednesday (Tie no bet)
Parlay: Dustin Johnson (-220) over Adam Long & Bryson DeChambeau (-238) over Antoine Rozner at (+107) - Pinnacle
- This tournament and Ryder/Presidents Cup are usually the only times I'm willing to parlay chalk. Reason being is it isn't some random matchup selected by the books where each player is playing vs the course. Here, Long and Rozner have to go against 2 of the best players in the world. The intimidation factor elevates. So getting this at plus money was worth a play.
Kevin Na (-130) over Robert MacIntyre - Pinnacle
- As mentioned before, MacIntrye is a solid young player but making his debut in another big tournament. Hasn't done a whole lot so far in his month stateside. Na WD at the Players a bit concerning, but prior to that was playing pretty steady. Made it to the Round of 16 and Round of 8 here in the last 3 years.
Talor Gooch (+147) over Webb Simpson - Pinnacle
- Enough value here to pull the trigger. Gooch a very solid ball striker with a 12th and a 5th in his last 4 starts. Since the move to Austin CC, Webb has not gotten out of the group stage.
Corey Conners (-125) over Matthew Wolff - William Hill
- This line is in the -150 to -160 range at most books but was able to grab this. Conners playing very well right now, with a 3rd at Bay Hill followed by a 7th at the Players. +2.11 Strokes gained T2G at Bay Hill and +1.74 at Sawgrass. Wolff took 3 weeks off after going 64th-WD at Riviera then WGC Florida. Would play this up to -150.
