BMW Championship – Initial Picks
Down to the final 70 players for the FedEx Cup which means two things: there is no cut and most of the field will be gunning to get into the Top 30 to qualify for the final event. We will have way more on this tournament from the WinDaily team within the next 24 hours, and of course, we will be bringing you the Livestream tonight (Tuesday night) at 8:30 pm with Michael Rasile and Joel Schrek. The Livestream will also feature 1st Round Leader bets, outright bets and matchups. Here are our BMW Championship – Initial Picks.
Justin Thomas (10800) – JT checks all the boxes. Before the restart I dubbed JT the best player in the world and I think he finishes the FedEx Cup on top when it’s all said and done. Since the restart JT leads the field T2G. He didn’t have a great tournament with the putter last week, but expect a rebound in that department.
Webb Simpson (10100) – Doesn’t get the respect he deserves and that is absolutely fine with me as I will keep firing. He’s in great form and coming off a 3rd and a 6th place finish. I have no issue if you want to start your team in this range.
Scottie Scheffler (9000) – We’ve always known that Scottie can pile up DFS points, but now he is actually contending among the elite tier of golfers. He has been the best player T2G over the last month. His price continues to creep upward but he’s still worth the pricetag considering the form he is in.
Tony Finau (8700) – We know Finau can get hot and go low and we also know that he can buckle under pressure. Therefore, a no cut event would appear to be a good situation for Tony and at this price he doesn’t need to be Top 3 to justify the selection. I will point out that he is 29th in the FedEx Cup Standings.
Adam Scott (8200) – Very unimpressive 58th place last week, but he can attribute some of the poor days to a lack of play since the restart. With that said, he’s finally playing two tournaments in a row and he sits at 36th in the FedEx Cup standings. I think Scott will be particularly dialed into making that Top 30 and I expect a good showing.
Matthew Wolff (8200) – Shot a laughable 77 on Saturday at the Northern Trust but had a nice rebound performance on Sunday with a 67. Wolff, Morikawa and Hovland are only a handful of players that actually have some recent experience on this course (from their amateur days which were literally just two years ago) and I expect all three of them to play well here again.
Viktor Hovland (8100) – With only 70 players in the field I’m looking for a golfer that can get hot on any given day and Hovland continues to prove that he can do that. The reason I have selected only two of the Fab three (I have excluded Morikawa) is simply a product of value and that is exactly what you’re getting with Hovland.
Ryan Palmer (7600) – Yes he will have the occasional blow up rounds but he has been very good since the restart, including four made cuts in a row with two Top 10’s in that span. It’s interesting to note that Abraham Ancer (7700) has played the same exact last four tournaments as Ryan Palmer (Northern Trust, PGA, WGC and Memorial) and Ancer’s best finish during that span is 15th and his other three finishes were MC, 43rd and 58th).
Talor Gooch (6600) – I was on the Gooch last week and it paid off with an 18th place finish. He’s been Top 25 in his last two and appears to be on the rise. Definitely value at this price.
Secret Weapon (sub 7k/less than 5%) – At some point I’m going to be wrong on the SW pick, but it’s been two months and it hasn’t happened yet. See you in Discord for the next installment.
