This is a limited field of 130 players, and there will be a standard top 65 and ties cutline following the first two rounds. Brian Gay won at 15 under last season, and Brendon Todd took home the top prize at inaugural Bermuda Championship two years ago at 23 under. Since its inception in 2019, this tournament has only been held at Port Royal. Bent is the only grass he can putt, so it all sets up for Cam to outplay the likes of Smith, Scott, Leishman, and Day here.Share on Twitter Share on Facebook Share on Email Share on SMSįollowing Hideki Matsuyama’s win at the ZOZO Championship in Japan, the PGA Tour travels to Port Royal Golf Club (par 71, 6,828 yards, Bermuda greens) in Southampton, Bermuda, for the Bermuda Championship. He lost 1.6 strokes-putting while having his best approach week since the win. Last week, it was the Bermuda greens that kept Cam from finishing better than 27th. We’ll blame those on course fit and note that he won a birdie-fest with gettable holes in July at the Rocket Mortgage. These are juicy odds for Davis after a few mediocre finishes. CJ Cup prop pick Cam Davis Top Australian (+700) He’ll find more short grass on this course.
His two recent 11th place finishes may have been Top 10s, had he not lost 3.7 and 12.5 strokes to the field missing fairways. He did gain a lot of strokes putting at Sanderson and Fortinet, but the approach game makes us think Varner is trending up. Bent is his best surface and he’s also been in great recent form, with four consecutive Top 20s. New dad swag would only be gravy on top of the boxes that HV3 checks. Hovland shouldn’t need his short game so much at The Summit Club. It was the worst ARG performance of his career, but he gained 5.3 strokes on approach. Worried about the Vegas factor for the young stud? We’ll blame his T-44 Shriners finish on losing nine strokes around the greens. You can expect Hovland to go long in those big fairways and create a ton of birdie/eagle opportunities. He’s a big hitter who can light this place up if the putter cooperates enough. Let’s not jump off the BDV bus after one bad week. Reed’s a scrambler, not a bomber.ĬJ Cup top finisher predictions Viktor Hovland Top 10 (+245) The bad form continues for Reed after the illness, and this course wouldn’t be his style even at the best of times. Those deadly irons should stay deadly enough to beat Patrick Reed, who is one of our fantasy fades this week. He gained over four shots on approach at the Shriners and actually gained a few putting. This is another case of sharp line movement, after Koepka opened as the -120 favorite. A bomber's paradise is where Scottie can get it right. Scottie Scheffler had an outlier week at Shriners, losing five strokes tee to green & three strokes around the greens. Yes, he is a previous CJ Cup winner, but that was at the Nine Bridges. However, Koepka lost strokes everywhere last week on his way to a T-67 at Shriners. Scottie Scheffler (-120) over Brooks Koepkaīrooks always has a great time in Vegas, and somehow manages to squeeze in some golf. We'll ride with JT, who ranks first in eagles gained over his last 50 rounds and has gained multiple shots on approach in four consecutive starts. Typically a top ball-striker, he’s losing strokes on approach and off the tee every week along with poor putting. Why is he a sharp fade? Morikawa may be a member at the Summit Club and holder of the course record, but he hasn’t played well since winning the Open. We’re seeing similar shifts in other Morikawa matchups. This line has quickly flipped, after opening with Morikawa as a -118 favorite. There are a number of factors to consider when betting on the CJ Cup at The Summit Club:ĬJ Cup matchup predictions Justin Thomas (-118) over Collin Morikawa It's a course that will be friendly to the tour's bombers, with wide fairways, and has four reachable par fives and three drivable par fours. The lush, park-land style resort club is right down the street from the Vegas strip. The Summit Club is a Tom Fazio-designed course and one that shouldn't be a difficult test for tour players.
