OVERVIEW

The final week of the regular season is upon us this week as we head to Greensboro, North Carolina. The last three to four weeks have been a tough stretch of golf for most of the Tour’s elite, so we won’t be getting great prices on some of the value plays we’re used to this week. The narrative this week will be “bubble boys” (players looking to get into the FedEx Cup Playoffs) so there should be a lot of talk about playing those guys as their prices should be fairly cheap and they have “extra motivation”. While this is true, we still need to focus on players whose game’s suit the course and vice versa. The greens here are fairly easy to hit as they’re large, but they have some dramatic undulations, which should keep scoring in check for those that can’t hit their approaches close. There’s only two Par 5’s again this week, but they’ll need to score on them to have a chance at seeing the weekend. Aside from that we have our typical Par 4 scoring, birdie or better and SG: APP statistics to target this week.
