if you like birdies this is your week it is the John Deere classic by bold prediction I think somebody goes minus 10 on one of those rounds welcome to tea time I’m ad from wagertalk.com being joined as always by my fellow golf betting expert Nick Borman from wagertalk.com we’re going to break down the iconic John Deere classic back in the day Nick this was known as the Steve Stricker open uh show show up and win this thing um we’re going to break down the course we’re going to break down the field go over to total Strokes gained we’ll give you some DraftKings Darlings we give you an outright winner top 20 finishing position and of course players that can trip you up let’s take a look at the course first though TPC Deer Run par 71 and there is just not much to this course um Fairways are pretty wide open the greens are pretty easy it’s not too long weather looks like it should be beautiful so this is a birdie Fest putting is going to be the name of the game this week um you know perfect example last week Tom Kim but like highest price favorite he missed some makeable putts missed the cut um this week’s going to be similar uh Nick the Ruff is not too penalizing there are a couple of water hazards that I think will collect some some Wayward shots but make no mistake about this course I think minus 25 is your target winning score maybe even lower like I said I’m not going to be surprised if someone shoots a minus 10 uh a couple of the par fives are easily reachable there’s multiple par fours that are pretty pretty short only a couple par 3s that might test them a little bit but then on the flip side you’ve got one that’s like 150 yards so overall there’s just not a lot of Defense to this course there never has been I think that’s kind of how they like it and we only got to minus 18 last week I think they blow through that uh the weather on Sunday kind of kind of held them up from the super super low scores so couple of holes that I’ve got my eye on this week and then I’ll get your thoughts on of course we’ll start with the 10th hole 581 yard par five very high risk High reward the Fairway not too difficult to hit off the te but the green has water right next to the green on the right side and it has a bunker on the left so if you’re going for the green and two and you hit it on the green you got a very makeable Eagle putt if you miss the green to the right you’re in the water uh that bunker can collect some balls and if you don’t get a great lie that’s another tough little bunker shot so uh potential bogey but if you bogey this whole you you like that could easily cost you making the cut could cost you quite a few uh finishing positions so I like that hole uh very highrisk high reward uh 14th hole 357 yard par 4 this one is you just swing for the fences this is a green that’s below the T potentially hitable for the longest guys if they get a good kick it could roll up there uh but you see the roll off off here and kind of off to the right that’s where most of the the balls are going to end up so then it becomes a a chipping you know kind of competition and this is just a must birdie you’ve got to go minus two minus three on this hole throughout four uh throughout four four rounds left off the te not good I just like this whole um to see what the strategy is there’s G to be some people that lay up because they want that you know 90 to 100 yard uh pitching wedge others are going to get it right up uh pretty close to the green and then finally the 18th hole 460 yard par 4 there’s a couple of little issues with this hole off the te like you can see there’s trees off to the right there’s bunkers on The Fairway off to the left so you know if you you kind of spray it out to the left or the right you’ve got a little bit of a trouble Troublesome second shot and with the screen you see the water that’s on the left people will absolutely hit the ball in that water um so it’s a pretty good finishing Hole uh for an easy course maybe a little bit difficult now if you hit the Fairway you got a really really nice easy approach shot uh to set yourself up for birdie so those are three holes that I like what’s your take on uh TPC Deer Run here Nick yeah not much to the course as far as defense goes it is a par 71 7200 and change as far as yards go so kind of similar to last week as far as total yardage one less uh stroke on the par there’s only three par fives uh both the greens and the fairways slightly larger than average by t standards uh rough actually it’s kind of long it’s up to four inches uh which you know will make the lies a little unpredictable when you do Miss but because everything’s a little bit more generous as far as hitting the target areas it should again as you alluded to a kind of a Lo go towards low scores if you look back at you know the history of this tournament and the winners I mean it’s been played here at TBC Deer Run since every year since 2000 minus the covid year but more than half of the winners have reached at least 20 underpar I think all but three since 2009 have reached 20 under par so your debt on the money as far as it’s going to be uh a shootout to say the least and usually what we see in shootouts uh Andy and I were talking about this before the show is you know you kind of you get a lot of long shots because it’s hard it’s hard to predict I mean it’s you know you you you’re gonna get guys like last week uh batia and Tom Kim as your favorites and baa had a good week Tom Kim did not but usually what you’re gonna see is a a lot of guys that maybe well for us we would recognize the names but you might not or or but they’re in the 75 or high to one range as far as outrights go and they make a run last week Andy it’s crazy there was 50 excuse me there was 19 players in the field last week that ranked in the top 60 in the FedEx Cup that’s it so it was only 19 of the top 60 in the FedEx Cup last week we knew that was a water downfield this week is very similar of those 19 players half of them so it was eight if you look at the final leaderboard on Sunday eight of the top nine ranked in the top 60 so of those 19 elite players players I don’t know what term we’re going to use for the the best the cream of the crop for that particular tournament they actually all finished high on the leaderboard it was like it was almost like there were no long shots that really had a chance to win in a water downfield which is rare those are the tournaments usually you see the long shots win and this would be one of those and if you look back at the history of this tournament you you know so often you’re seeing guys 50 60 I mean Michael Kim was like 300 to one I mean there’s there are big numbers that have one here so I don’t really know what to make of that other than I saw the trend I wanted to point it out I don’t know if that means we should put all our eggs in the uh top of the of the oddsboard basket or we should completely ignore it and it was an anomaly and no no way it could happen again I’m not really sure but I just wanted to bring it up because it was surprising to me uh but skill sets I’m looking for this week Andy are similar to last week you know the winner is going to need to possess the ability to go low that is batia in a nutshell he and he did that last week uh you gotta have a low scoring average you got to have a high birdie average uh you got to be able to hit your irons pretty close again because you’re going to need to make a lot of birdies here so proximity to the hole greens and regulation both important to look at and you got to be able to putt you’re going to have to make a lot of them to win and so you know putts per Green in regulation as a stat to pay attention to uh and then of course just Strokes gained putting so simple formula really the ability to go low hit your flesh irons and be able to roll the rock or kind of where I’m at I’m not too worried about off the te I don’t think there’s a huge Advantage um one way or the other for distance or or not so that that’s kind of where I’m at and you know I can’t really add a whole lot more to the course I think you covered it pretty well but I don’t don’t see a lot of uh push back unless the weather does something but right now there’s a small chance of rain on Thursday morning kind of that’s it it kind of the rest of the week looks pretty solid right around 80 degrees every day wind maybe a little bit on Friday but that’s it otherwise it should be you know allowing for low scores this week yeah these tournaments can be difficult I mean there’s there’s no reason to you know spray the board with 10 15 bets on on tournaments like this there’s just there’s just so much unknown um with it you can have some really surprising results I like I’ll be honest I I had a a a parlay that involved Taylor pendrith making the cut he made it on the last putt on he did he was he was outside he was outside the cut he makes a 10-footer to get in by one shot it was like it’s a guy that you know should have been in the top 20 like by all all the stats and everything like he should have easily been up there Tom Kim misses the cut he ties his nationality prop like like on with two guys that missed the cut so there can be some I know I know it’s golf I know there could be very strange results every single week but um you know just mind your p’s and q’s this week um you know if you’re a long shot better get these tournaments you know you might be able to find some some really good good value but uh yeah just be careful with the bank roll um there could be some very surprising results let take a look at the total Strokes gained uh this is the chart that we dissect who’s been good last 12 six and 3 months uh some some names we do not normally see on this chart so Nick walk us through what’s our big takeaways from this week uh well the big takeaway is this list is the cream of the crop for this week so yeah not a lot of the big names uh one surprise name I didn’t know this was even happening was uh spe back in the field this week he hasn’t played since 2015 he won his first PGA event 2013 then won again in 2015 hasn’t played since just gives you an idea of a guy that had success here but it’s just not a big tournament so they don’t they usually kind of where their schedule is it just it’s makes sense to take off this week uh Patrick kley was in the field which I couldn’t believe either way he he withdrew so he’s not on the list but uh kind of who you expect to see as far as if you know this tournament if you watch every year these guys do tend to play here every single year seaka winner last year uh he’s right there near the top JT post and I think he’s been back toback sixth place I believe is is the last two years finish this year so another guy that has played very well here Denny McCarthy I feel like we’ve talked about him recently over the last couple of weeks just as a a guy that can putt you know no matter how how short or long of a window you look at he ranks number one in Strokes game putting so he’s he’s on the list Jason day Maverick Maverick mcne I like he’s a he’s a quiet uh steady performer right now Aaron Ry who had a chance to win last week I’m sure you saw that driver off the deck he hit that it kept getting replayed from like 275 to you know real tight so uh nothing really surprising here Andy I I I hav’t sorted by the the last 12 months and last week it looked like the winner was going to be one of these top 10 guys all week long until finally on Sunday batia uh kind of ran out of steam and so did Ry and then of course Cam Davis who wasn’t in the top 10 he was just a little outside of it he was still in the top 25 though um he ended up surging and grabbing them grabbing that late lead but the last three months is where I would tend to look mostly here because this is guys that are playing well at the moment and last week that proved to be kind of the guys that played well again was the guys that were playing very well in the shorter term so sunjam certainly resurgent right now he’s the betting favorite for good reason this week straa obviously gonna get a lot of attention just for winning last year and then Davis Thompson is another name that again if you’re not one you I Andy you might not know the name but very consistent over the last three months and definitely worth a look uh but you know it’s crazy you can see Davis Thompson at 75 to1 a couple weeks ago now you’re seeing him at 25 to1 in this field so it kind of kind of takes away a little of flare there I threw as far as the notables goes I threw Ben Griffin and Sam Stevens they’re both guys that are playing very well in in the three-month window and Neil Shipley I threw in there as the guy that made a splash at the US Open turn pro has actually had a pretty good showing uh last week so he’s on the list here as well but no real surprises Andy but uh this is the list of guys that have played the most consistent over the last 12 months but I would look towards the last three months and you’ll see like Jordan spe maybe not the best of bet versus like a Denny McCarthy a Sunjai or a sep sta instead love it uh if you guys could please hit the hit the like button it really helps the algorithm out helps us out let’s the snow wager talk is uh enjoying enjoying the results that we’re getting for you guys leave us a comment tell us who you like this week should be a crazy one I’m actually kind of interested what people are doing on their oneand duns um you know these these tournaments you’re using guys that you haven’t used and I’m sure once we once’s once we start getting into the later part of the year then it gets tough so I had men Lee my one and done last week so I’m sure I’m looking at guys like Aaron Ry and you know some of these others so uh leave us a note in the comment section tell us who you like this week let’s go to players that can trip you up I will tell you one guy that I will not be using in my oneand done is Mr Jordan spe uh the betting favorite for this tournament has not finished better than 29th in the last nine tournaments this is the 21st best total Strokes gain in this field in the last three months and this is a course that requires a very hot Putter and he’s minus 0.30 Strokes gain putting last three months that that is a laughable betting favorite you want to talk about like I mean you want talk about name value alone in what world is Jordan spe the betting favorite no chance I’m using him in one and duns or DFS I’m not betting on him in head-to-head matchups or top finishing positions he’s been a Fade All Season I know it’s a weak field uh but his short game which he’s been dependent on uh throughout his career it’s just not there so to me he’s a fate but he’s a two-time winner Andy he’s a two- time winner oh is he this is this the Patrick preparing you I’m preparing you for the guy that’s going to bombard us on the the comments it’s like Jordan Speed dude what’s wrong with you guys so bombard away A lot has happened since Jordan speed has been a two-time winner of this one so I mean that minus 0.30 Strokes game putting that is a recipe for disaster at this course everyone’s going to be able to hit the fairways everybody’s going to be able to hit the greens it’s going to come down to putting and spe just uh not there so Jordan spe that’s my first player that can trip you up I’ll go to Keith Mitchell he missed the cut last week on a course that required great putting uh last three months he’s even slightly worse than spe minus 0.33 Strokes gain putting so he’s priced as a top 10 guy this week uh he only has a couple of top 10 finishes this year and last week just did not give me a lot of confidence also uh he’s only finished 42nd here last year at this tournament um previous L he only played in 2021 missed a cut there he’s a stay away this week again I’m looking at these guys that are priced in the top 10 that just have not been that good with putting it’s this course requires four rounds of really great putting and Keith Mitchell to me not checking that box and here’s an interesting one for you Nick Denny McCarthy he’s almost too dependent on putting at this point like when his putting isn’t the best he really struggles here are La here are his last five finishes 3 32nd 39th 24th and miscut and I know he’s finished six the last couple years here but I just don’t like his current form and I know this is going to sound so crazy but his putting over the last 30 days has dipped to plus 0.90 it’s dipped normally it’s like plus 1.3 and the thing is the rest of his game just is not good enough to get inside the top 10 he’s priced is a top 10 guy and his putting just has to be white hot not red hot white hot and it just hasn’t happened for him so price is a top 10 guy uh just not sure that the that uh his entire te to Green game is going to be good enough if his putting is not you know completely dialed in so I think he’s going to be a little bit overvalued this week so Jordan spe Keith Mitchell and Denny McCarthy are three players that this week I think can uh trip you up so let’s take a look at someone we don’t think will trip you up it is your outright winner who we looking at this uh who are we looking at this week Nick well listen I always say it uh when you get in these type of fields you know you you look at the majors you look at the big Signature Events you’re gonna say oh this guy’s gotten a top 20 finish in 10 of the last 11 events well you’re not going to find that in this field you’re gonna find guys that have gotten top 20 finishes in five of the last 11 events or maybe four right right so you got to temper your expectations as far as consistency goes but Maverick McNeely to me is a guy that kind of checks all the right boxes you got form you got kind of skill set and you got results at this tournament previous year so solid form coming in he’s got three top 25 finishes in his last four starts pretty good he also had several good finishes earlier this season he had a couple top 10 at the waist manager Phoenix Open and the players he’s you know he’s got a couple of whatever results in between but again you’re gonna have that with you know the names in this list these aren’t the elite elite player so but he’s got the potential he’s shown that he can play well in Deep Field he’s shown he can play well in putting cont so he’s kind of got that mix where he can sneak up on you know any field and any type of course and at least play well will he come through and win obviously that’s a lot to ask but 30 to1 I think is a pretty good number on him to do so his real only weakness unfortunately is his irons uh he but he ranks 21st Strokes gained off the T 12th Strokes gained around the green and 28th Strokes game putting that’s a pretty solid all-around player right there and because of that he leads or excuse me It All Leads to 10th ranking in total Strokes game this season so very solid for a guy that you don’t really think of as a top 10 player uh his data point suggests that he hits the ball and can get her on the course as well as those guys but just hasn’t you know doesn’t get the consistent results he owns the 12th best adjusted scoring average this season the 14th highest birdie average and again I think that’s very important this week because you’re gonna have to make him in bunches and finally good results here in this tournament he did not play last year but he finished tie for 18th in 2021 and tie for eth two years ago in 2022 so I like his chances to once again finish in that top 20 or top 10 with all we’re looking for in the outright winner is just that Sunday sweat uh uh to give us a chance come the final round but uh Maverick mcneel I think he’s gonna play well take him on the outright Market 30 to one feel like you want to back him up maybe on a top 10 or top 20 as well just in case he has that good week but can’t quite shut the door but I like M Maverick mcney this week and to play all right like Maverick McNeely this week like his uh backstory kind of fun if you have if you don’t if you don’t know what Maverick mcney uh dad’s like one of the richest people ever like Maverick the the story is Maverick mcne is like the richest guy on tour except uh his dad except his dad just like doesn’t give him any money like Maverick B graduated college and his dad was like yeah you can stay here but you’re sleeping on the couch and you’re paying rent he’s got it’s a funny story it’s a really funny story if you if you look it up and read about it there’s been a couple articles um so it’s I I I kind of pull for him I don’t for whatever reason I think it’s funny let’s take a look at some Draft Kings Darlings here um I I was terrible on my DraftKings Darlings last week we’ll try and do better but I I I I I do have to say I don’t play DraftKings uh the DFS that hard on these events I the Nick the jury I do way better at the events with the big name players there’s just more stats there’s it’s a little bit more predictable you go through my DFS record and it’s like really good results at the majors and and the other ones so um you know I I tread tread lightly with these tournaments there’s just a lot of weirdness that happens and we’ll start with Ben Silverman at 7100 this is a guy that’s made the cut in three straight tournaments uh this is coming off a bad run of finishes so I like that he’s turned his form around uh his big weakness really is his lack of distance off the te but that’s not an issue here on this short course in the last 30 days he’s plus 0.97 Strokes gain putting so if he can have another really good putting week then I like our chances here um again I when you have these shorter courses go down the list of of total Strokes gained and see where these guys are struggling with Strokes gained and you know this is like the Brian Harmon JT Poston type thing where guy like Ben Silverman so what so what he he he doesn’t drive it that far this is the course where you know really doesn’t matter and uh you know posted I’m sure is going to be a popular pick this week just for that reason um you know doesn’t drive the ball long but short game and putting is really good so he should thrive on this so Ben Silverman at 7100 it’s my first darling next Joel Damon uh he’s made the cut six tournaments in a row I like that he’s finished 25th and 10th in the last two tournaments he’s played in in those tournaments Plus one. 47 total Strokes gain so we’re just hoping that uh Damon is on a heater we can ride him for another week here so um I think 7300 is really really low on a guy like that I mean he’s he’s played he plays the tough courses as well so to get a guy that’s got the experience like him at 7,300 feels like a great price and then finally Andrew Novak at 7500 he’s made the cut 10 out of his last 12 tournaments his last two have been 20th and 14th so he’s shown us a little bit of upside he’s made the cut in the last two years here at this tournament so it’s 7500 just not sure we’re going to do that better at that price point I fully expect to get weekend points here from Novak and if he gets us a top 20 finish like he’s done in his last two tournaments um then it’s a real steal so the rest of my lineup is up at wagertalk.com you can click on the news section and articles are up there or you can go to Andy Lang’s profile page it’s free digital download get you the rest of the lineup as well as some total Strokes game course overview things like that all of that over at wagertalk.com Nick what do you have up for uh this week’s tournament um and for this week just in general over wager talk Andy this week’s tournament pack is available and ready on my page at wagertalk.com and of course you can get um get that which includes you know the pre-tournament plays plus all ads throughout the four rounds I’ve been doing pretty well with adding like round score plays as we go through the week so continue to look to do that and then uh MLS continues to be INF full swing continues to be an awesome season number one one again this year up 40 units got a midweek late this week Wednesday night games uh and then again of course on the weekend for Saturday night as well so definitely good week to check out like a all access pass for the seven days to get the golf and two rounds of MLS action uh so all that’s available right now at my page at witch nice let’s take a look at the finishing position boy you’ve got a guy out of left field I did not expect to see this name talk to us about Sam Stevens what do you like from him this week yeah Sam Stevens uh unless you’re a real golf nerd like you and I Andy probably not a name you’re going to be too familiar with but the second year now to or Pro he’s playing some really good golf last week’s tie for 10th finish at the rocket mortgage classic was his sixth finish inside the top 15 in his last nine starts which includes the RBC Canadian open the Myrtle Beach Classic you know that was an alternate field event so another kind of water down field and the Vero Texas open he hits it a long way off the te he ranks in the top 25 in driving distance and I know I said before that’s not a huge metric uh but if you can hit it far and keep it in play it’s always going to be an advantage and he ranks 35th in greens and regulation while 25th and 35th don’t sound great maybe at you know the Open Championship in a couple weeks time in this type of field where there’s only one top 25 player in the world in the field these are pretty dang good and high on the list of uh ranking in this field while some of his other season long stats don’t necessarily pop off the page he’s been doing his best work as of late over the last three months Stevens ranks ninth in total Strokes gained in this field uh he did play here again this is his second year on tour so he did play here last year he did miss the cut but coming into that tournament he didn’t have one top 30 finish in 10 previous starts going into that week so he just clearly was a different player than he wasn’t playing sort you know any sort of consistent golf he is now so I don’t put any uh worry or emphasis in into last year’s finish at all I think is is just a completely new player a guy that’s kind of dialed in seeing seeing the golf court seeing his shot shape well right now so I think that alone that confidence in a field like this again coming off a very very good week again last week I just love his chance to get into the top 20 he’s two to one to finish top 20 I think that’s a really good price on somebody that’s been playing as consistent as honestly the top of this leaderboard and more consistent than Jordan Speed who you mentioned at what is this price under 20 to1 to win the n so yeah I like Sam Stevens as a guy that’s under the radar who’s been putting up the results and I think can have a good week again to at least catch top 20 tick nice like it uh this is the perfect week to try and cash on some of these guys that you’re getting those that great plus money on these on these top 20 finishes so um I’m with you I I was on Aaron Ry um I cash a little bit on him I I I really like um I really like this guy he just seems to flourish on these you know like easier courses so I’m looking more towards guys like him I like your Maverick mcney what’s your thought on sun JM here I mean here’s his here’s his last few finishes third miscut eighth ninth miscut fourth 12th miscut I will tell you that those miscuts those are all the majors yes this guy can’t the cut in a major except I absolutely knew it because I was I was looking at him last night and I’m like I saw the same thing I’m like all right so the majors whatever but in a field like this he’s clearly the cream of the crop and he’s finished top 10 in basically every other event but the major so but he hasn’t won since 20 2020 so it’s like do I expect him to have a good week yes will I bet him not went out right it’s hard to bet a guy at that price that’s now that we talk about sunjam because he’s he is a consistent golfer he is one of the better players you know on tour he’s one of the better best players in this field but for whatever reason just to not be able to close the door this long I don’t know I’m not going to bet him at a price like this to do it all of a sudden will I cash him in a matchup maybe or cash him in a uh a parlay to make the cut or a top 20 whatever yeah maybe I’ll get some money on them but I won’t bet him the outright just because I don’t think it’s I don’t think it’s worth it for him but I do expect sunji to have a good week he’s been playing very very well aside from the yeah I like math wise and just the ey test there’s no reason that sunj M should be the same price as Jordan spe but you know what the books are doing we but we know what the books are doing and this is what just like get you know it I roll my eyes at this because it’s like all right you put Jordan spe is the favor because you know people are just going to see the name and then you know take it but you know then what do they do on the head-to-head matchups will they put him against Jason day it’s like no they’re not gonna give you Sun JM like they you know so it’s like oh no they’ll take your money on him to do great but they will not take your money on him to struggle so it’s a i that’s why they’re in business I know I know it’s it’s that’s why he’s on players to trip you up and it’s the one guy this week that I just like it is the big word of caution like that like when I lo when I saw when the odds came out and he was number one I just like I knew exactly what they were doing so uh shame on you books shame on you um the last the last guy um I wanted to bring up just a little bit JT Poston I mean he’s a bed on this week is this guy finished first and six this course we just talked a little bit about driving distance these guys that struggle on the on the longer courses like Brian Harmon and once you get a chance to to bet on a guy like this at a shorter course like it kind of feels like an opportunity where you kind of have to don’t you I like posting I mean if you go back to like the beginning of the season for us we I feel like I talked about the postman it felt like every other week if not every week he was riding such a heater he’s kind of fallen off you know as of late but you gotta you got to look at you know the bigger picture and kind of say well yeah the last three months I mean this is this is the biggest part of the PJ tour season it’s all of the majors have just happened I mean we had signature vent major signature event in three three straight weeks so is he Elite with your Scotty shefflers your Xander shof your Rory maoy no but is he better than most of the players in this field yes and I think you can see that even in some of the results he still had good he had he had a tie for fifth at the RBC Heritage which was was a signature event uh tie for 12th at Colonial which is the Charles Schwab uh tie for 22nd at the memorial so it’s kind of there he actually was playing pretty well and have good finishes and tough courses um what will be interesting to see is how you know well he fares when you have to go low but as you’ve alluded to before he won here two years ago and he backed up with a tie for six last year so clearly he knows this place well enough that he should and I do think he is one of the better players in this field so again if you don’t like his price on the outright look to get his money on him most likely in uh you know leaderboard or maybe a match up I’m just throwing out that that he’s minus 105 to finish in the top 30 on DraftKings right now that’s Prett good yeah just lobbing I’m just lobbing that out there that a guy who flourishes on easy courses with uh weak Fields is my is almost even money just to get into the top 30 gu finished first in six that’s a good last couple good couple years so I don’t know we’ll see we’ll see about that so um all right guys that’s going to do it for us again if you’re not hit the like button please do that leave us a comment tell us who you like and uh we got what we got another week of uh
