This is a guy that always does well and has gotten better with age. On this course he can win.
Tony Finau

T5 | T70 | T22 |
He is ready to win any week now, good with the driver and will play well.
Matt Kuchar

Another of those guys that can get the best out of Glen Abbey.
Chez Reavie

T23 | T14 | T41 | T31 | T37 | T13 | CUT | Win |
The guy has missed his last four cuts, but I think that streak ends here in a big way.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
T62 | CUT | T5 | T34 | T11 |
Always plays steady, good for DraftKings players.
Worst Bets:
Dustin Johnson

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
T8 | T2 | CUT | T2 | WD |
He would much rather be at a beach than playing golf this week. His game is not very sharp, honestly he probably should have taken the week off but he has a contract to do work for the sponsor so he has to come. If he makes the cut it will be a good week for him.
