Today I’ll be highlighting another one of my favorite contests on MKF, the Eagle Eye. Every PGA tournament MKF runs a special contest where if you play in a $5+ Eagle Eye contest and all 3 of your golfers get an eagle during the tournament you get share of the jackpot.
This week’s jackpot is $2,500. Last week there was only 1 winner and that person walked away with $2,500!
This week the PGA holds its final Major of the year, The Open Championship at Royal St George’s GC. With the start time of this tournament being when most of us are sleeping, we’ll want to make sure we lock in our picks today.
Let’s dig in and see if we can find some eagles!
Eagle Eye
Bryson DeChambeau
DeChambeau is tied for second this year in eagles with 14, trailing only Cam Davis who leads with 16. A big reason why he’s been able to get so many eagles is this year is due to him being great off the tee.
There has been no one better on the year in terms of shots gained off the tee this year than Dechambeau. His lead is pretty sizeable too. So far this year DeChambeau has an eagle in 2 of the 3 Majors. Can he make it 3 out of 4? I think so. Confidence level – High
Justin Thomas
With this contest, I really try to focus on players that have a high frequency of eagling holes. In Thomas, only 5 other golfers this year have been getting eagles at a quicker pace. Thomas is eagling holes about once every 96 holes. In his last 6 tournaments, he’s had 3 eagles.
One reason he’s been able to do this is by being long off the tee at nearly 303 yards. The other reason is that he’s been one of the best at gaining shots with his approach shots. He ranks inside the top 5 there.
The Majors have been a bit of a struggle for Thomas this year with 1 cut missed and a T21 and T19. I like JT to rebound this week and finish out the fourth major with a strong effort and an eagle. Confidence Level – Medium
Tony Finau
Another guy that’s long off the team is Finau as he’s averaging over 304 yards this year. Finau is tied for 5th this year with eagles with 13 on the year. He’s also 5th on tour this year in terms of eagles per hole with an eagle every 91 holes.
While he missed the cut at the US Open this year he had finished in the top 10 in both the Masters and PGA championship. Like Dechambeau he has an eagle in 2 of the year’s 3 Majors. Look for him to get back on the saddle and have a successful final Major of the year with at least 1 eagle. Confidence Level – Medium/High
Eagle Eye Wrap Up
These are my top picks for eagles this week across the pond. All three of these guys eagle holes more than most and I’ll want to make sure I lock them in.
Good luck and hope to share the $2,500 with you!
