I won’t bore you with the whole “I don’t know where you are in the standings or who you have left” speech this week.\u00a0 We’ll just get down to brass tacks and find some guys that could play well this week.\u00a0 Although, I will say, despite the smaller purse ( $9.6 million, $1.728 million to the champ), there is likely a good chance to find a “sleeper” type name, and have him at very low ownership, helping you chasers catch up a little bit if you’re right.<\/p>\n

Cutmakers<\/h2>\n

Looking at the average finish for the past twelve months is a GREAT example of how you need to turn your brain on a touch and use some context when looking at data.\u00a0 Collin Morikawa<\/span> tops the list, but is going through yet another caddie change and a possible putter switch as well.\u00a0 Buyer beware.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Total Driving<\/h2>\n

Distance is a big help here (most places), but accuracy is not thrown out the window with the rough in Detroit.\u00a0 Total Driving marries the two, but I wanted to have a similar metric that doesn’t exist, where driving and accuracy are combined, but heavier on the driving side.\u00a0 So, I made one in the Rabbit Hole.\u00a0 Driving distance over the past year was weighted in a 2:1 ratio with accuracy.\u00a0 Some sprayers at the top, but you can see a couple of names that do both well, maybe in some limited samples.\u00a0 Cam Champ is a winner on a very comparable track at the 3M.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Wedges Again<\/h2>\n

Like last week, we’re talking short approaches again, and I attempted to slide together a couple of ranges in a proper ratio to see who has been throwing darts from up close.\u00a0 This is a minimum 30 rounds over the past year in the 50-100 and 100-150 ranges from fairway OR rough.\u00a0 Grillo is someone I peeked at a bit, but haven’t been able to fit into my betting card so far.\u00a0 Maybe a nice DFS play at the salary though.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Par 5 Wizardry<\/h2>\n

With three reachable par 5s, the leaderboard is going to be gettable for guys who can score and score ofter on these.\u00a0 Filtered by Easy and Average SG gained on Par 5s over the past year and then sorted by birdie of better rate.\u00a0 A couple guys hitting 60%!\u00a0 Jeremy Paul<\/a> has a KFT win (I had to look him up)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rocket Challenge One and Done Suggestions<\/h2>\n

Are you near the top?\u00a0 Maybe a good week to use a guy no one seems to know when to use: Hideki Matsuyama<\/span>.<\/p>\n

If you’re chasing, I think it’s time to have some fun with a name you like, hell, maybe a name you bet to win at a big number<\/p>\n

Harry Hall<\/span><\/strong>
\nMax Greyserman<\/a><\/strong>
\nKeith Mitchell<\/span><\/strong>
\nRico Hoey<\/span><\/strong>
\nand… a guy I bet that you probably have left since he’s sucked all year: Max Homa<\/span>?<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":15207,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":""},"bs_types":[14],"bs_tags":[163,125],"class_list":["post-15206","article","type-article","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","bs_type-betting","bs_tag-one-and-done","bs_tag-rocket-mortgage-classic"],"acf":false,"featured_image":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Detroit-Golf-Club-2.jpeg","tags_list":[{"id":163,"name":"One and Done","slug":"one-and-done"},{"id":125,"name":"Rocket Mortgage Classic","slug":"rocket-mortgage-classic"}],"types_list":[{"id":14,"name":"Betting"}],"bs_author":{"name":"Andy Molitor","profile_image":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Andy-Molitor-150x150.jpg"},"bs_term_name":null,"is_paid":"false","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/15206","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/article"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15207"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15206"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"bs_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/bs_types?post=15206"},{"taxonomy":"bs_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/bs_tags?post=15206"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
