Insights: CBez feels like one of the safer names near the top of this board, but whether he wins comes down to one club—the driver. The encouraging signs are there after another solid week at the John Deere, where the approach play and putter clicked together again, giving him four starts in his last seven with gains in both categories. He holds four top-10 finishes worldwide in 2026, including two in opposite-field events, and quietly continues to put himself in contention more often than the results suggest. The good news is Hurstbourne should minimize his biggest weakness off the tee and place far more emphasis on the strengths of his game. He ranks among the Tour’s best in scrambling, sand saves, and around-the-green play, while the putter has remained a reliable weapon on Bentgrass. At 20/1, I understand why he’s one of the favorites, but I’d still like to see a little more confidence with the driver before making him an outright anchor. Hat tip from me this week, though he’s certainly one of the more logical contenders in this field. -C

Insights: Max makes a ton of sense this week, coming into this alternate event as one of the favorites after a solo 2nd at the John Deere last week. It was his third straight Top 25 and second straight event in which he gained in every major strokes-gained category. That’s very much a winning profile, especially considering those events were stronger than the level of competition he will face this week. All that said, even in a weak field, how excited are you to back Homa at 20/1 or shorter? He hasn’t won since 2023 at any level, and he hasn’t exactly shown a clutch gene in the events he was close to winning since then. I’m hard on him because I like Homa, as he’s provided me with two outright winners in the past. Obviously, that’s ancient history at this point. If you see value at this price, in this field, given his form, then I won’t blame you for paying a premium on him this week — but that’s just not my thing. Hat tip for me, maybe some sort of Top 10/Top 20 parlay combined with Aberg at the Scottish? -S

Insights: I gave myself a pat on the back for fading Koivun at the John Deere, but this week is a much tougher decision. The pressure of his professional debut is behind him, he returns to a course where he finished 6th last year, and the field is significantly weaker. The missed cut was largely the result of an unusually poor putting performance, losing over three strokes on the greens despite that typically being one of the strongest parts of his game. The positive takeaway was gaining 1.5 strokes off the tee, suggesting the long game remains in good shape. That said, 14/1 still feels far too short for someone making just his second professional start, regardless of the field strength. Last summer showed the upside with finishes of T11, T6, and T5 in consecutive PGA Tour starts, so the talent is potential. If you’re looking for exposure, I’d rather target DFS, matchups, 3-balls, or even a First Round Leader ticket than chase the outright. For now, I’m happy to watch from the sidelines... though you’ll have to check tomorrow’s newsletter to see if he earns back-to-back Fade of the Week honors. -C

Insights: I was on Glover last week, and it was quite a fun ride for three days before he ultimately fell short on Sunday, failing to knock down any clutch birdie putts. Still, he cashed his full each way at 25/1, which returned more than Gotterup’s outright odds, so nothing to complain about really. Obviously with so much success, we’re going back to Glover this week, right? Well, not exactly. The appeal of Glover last week was the price relative to the field, and because this is a much weaker field, the price isn’t as good as last week. Plus, you add the mental fatigue of coming away from last week’s event disappointed from falling short of the win, and it makes the price even more unappealing. The statistical profile hasn’t been good enough to back him at this number; last week was more a dart throw on a course he’s extremely familiar with and comfortable on. -S

Insights: Lee Hodges earned just his second Top 10 of the season when he finished T3 at the John Deere last week, with the first being the first week of the season at the Sony in Hawaii. At 40/1, the price is much more palatable than some of the players that are around 20/1 in this field, especially when you consider the Approach game has been pretty solid since March despite mediocre finishes. It’s the short game that has been really bad pretty much all season long, and likely the reason why I will be off despite the strong ball-striking numbers. -S

Insight Ben James continues to flash enormous upside, but he’s also showing the growing pains you’d expect from a young player adjusting to professional golf. He held the 36-hole lead at the Canadian Open before a third-round 78, fired 68-64 to sit near the top at the Travelers before a difficult weekend, and rebounded with a Sunday 67 at the U.S. Open after a tough Saturday. The low rounds are coming against elite competition, proving the talent is very real—it’s just a matter of putting four rounds together. At 40/1, the ceiling is obvious after a college season that featured seven Top-5s and a victory in seven starts, but asking him to contend for four straight days still feels like a big leap. I much prefer exposure through matchups, 3-balls, or round-by-round markets where his ability to go low can shine. He absolutely has the talent to produce a Nick Dunlap-at-AmEx type breakthrough at some point—I just don’t think this is the week I’m willing to predict it. -C

ISCO Results: 14/10
Comp Results: 6/7/39/53
Insights: Kim doesn’t have a ton of PGA Tour experience, but he’s played in this event twice and finished Top 15 both times. He comes into this event having gained strokes OTT and ARG in five straight, as well as gains on APP in four of those five. In a weak field this week, the price isn’t nearly as appealing as it was last week at the John Deere, but the ball-striking profile at this number is definitely something to consider — even if the recent SG numbers are mostly from Korn Ferry events. This field isn't much better than a KFT field. Top 20, DFS are safer plays than outright bets here. -S

ISCO Results: 8/13
Comp Results: 28/59/MC/MC
Insights: Kohles was on the doorstep of a life-changing win last week before a brutal finish on Sunday. Needing only par on the 72nd to force a playoff, his approach found the water before a heartbreaking three-putt ended the dream. It was a tough beat for outright and each-way backers, but it shouldn’t overshadow the form that got him there. He’s now posted finishes of 3rd, 19th, 23rd, and 29th, following a Korn Ferry Tour victory and U.S. Open qualification, and the confidence in his ball-striking is clearly growing. At 25/1, the question becomes mental rather than physical. Can he bounce back after letting one slip away? I can certainly see the appeal in another opposite-field event, especially after finishing 8th here last year with a closing 66. Personally, I’d rather see how Thursday unfolds before jumping in live. A fast Friday and another weekend in contention feels more likely than a wire-to-wire victory, but if he gives himself another chance on Sunday, that’s all you can really ask for as a bettor. -C

Comp Results: 7/22/22/31/MC/MC/MC/MC/MC
Insights: Lipsky feels like one of the more interesting longshots on the board this week. The recent form doesn’t jump off the page with a T21 sandwiched between three missed cuts, but dig a little deeper and there are encouraging signs. He played three rounds in the 60s at the John Deere, sat T4 entering the weekend before a Saturday 71 stalled the momentum, and also found himself inside the top five through 36 holes at the Signature Event Truist Championship earlier this year. The ability to put himself in contention is there—he just hasn’t managed to string four rounds together. At 75/1, I’m willing to overlook the off-the-tee concerns in an opposite-field event, especially with his experience as a two-time DP World Tour winner. The around-the-green game has been consistently strong, and if the approach play spikes like we’ve seen at times this season, he has enough to contend. I’d much rather take a chance on a proven veteran like Lipsky than an unproven youngster at a similar price. A Top 20 feels like the best bet, with just enough outright exposure for a Sunday sweat if things break his way. -C

Insights: There’s a lot of red on Davis Thompson’s recent results page. He’s lost strokes on APP and PUTT in four of his last five, as well as ARG in five of his last six. That said, his best finishes this season have come in alternate events, which this very much is, but before you go running to the window to bet him, just know the price is absolutely disgusting — 20/1 on this form of DT ought to be illegal. His lone Top 10 at a solo event was at Puerto Rico in March, and he hasn’t cracked a Top 20 in five events since a T13 at Myrtle. -S
