Known as one of Jack Nicklaus&#8217; all-time favorites, it is a government-run municipal course designed by Robert Trent Jones in 1970. This week Port Royal will host the fourth edition of the Bermuda Championship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the shortest courses played in the PGA Tour&#8217;s annual rotation, it is characterized by its hilly terrain, challenging par-3s, and the seemingly ever-present threat of windy conditions. And with the current threat of a tropical depression forming just southwest of the island, we could be in for an interesting week of weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Bermuda Championship has never been known to have anything close to a &#8220;strong&#8221; field, the absolute weakness of this year&#8217;s field takes the cake. There are only five players in the field that are ranked in the OWGR top 100 including Seamus Power (the highest rated at No. 48), Polish sensation Adrian Meronk, Denny McCarthy, Lucas Glover, and Erik van Rooyen. Last year&#8217;s winner, Lucas Herbert apparently did not think it was worth the trip to defend his title. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter the field strength, this is still a full-fledged 132-player Tour event with 500 FedExCup points and a purse of $6.5 million, with the winner&#8217;s share coming in at $1,170,000. After a couple of weeks of no-cut events, the Bermuda Championship will have a 36-hole cut after Friday&#8217;s round with the top 65 players and ties making it to play the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"970\" height=\"285\" src=\"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Bermuda-Scorecard.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5362\" srcset=\"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Bermuda-Scorecard.jpg 970w, https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Bermuda-Scorecard-300x88.jpg 300w, https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Bermuda-Scorecard-768x226.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Course History<\/h2>\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A comprehensive course preview of the Port Royal Golf Course, host of the 2022 Bermuda Championship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":5366,"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":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":""},"bs_types":[14,15],"bs_tags":[137,29,73],"class_list":["post-5361","article","type-article","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","bs_type-betting","bs_type-fantasy","bs_tag-butterfield-bermuda-championship","bs_tag-golf-betting","bs_tag-golf-dfs"],"acf":false,"featured_image":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/778303260d33f6a31c5c14c334fc5a24-bermuda-island-paradise-island.jpg","tags_list":[{"id":137,"name":"Butterfield Bermuda Championship","slug":"butterfield-bermuda-championship"},{"id":29,"name":"Golf Betting","slug":"golf-betting"},{"id":73,"name":"Golf DFS","slug":"golf-dfs"}],"types_list":[{"id":14,"name":"Betting"},{"id":15,"name":"Fantasy"}],"bs_author":{"name":"Ron Klos","profile_image":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Ron-Klos-150x150.jpg"},"bs_term_name":null,"is_paid":"true","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/5361","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\/10"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5366"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5361"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"bs_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/bs_types?post=5361"},{"taxonomy":"bs_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/api.betspertsgolf.com\/raw-forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/bs_tags?post=5361"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
