The Players Championship

Top quality field headed by Speith, McIlroy, Day, Fowler, Matuyama, Garcia, Rose, Scott, Dustin Johnson, Watson & Stenson.

None of the above really catch my eye for the prices although we could all be made to look silly if Speith or Day coasts home by six shots. This course suits players who are accurate off the tee & are good on GIR in my opinion so I am looking for all rounders who are capable of four good rounds.

Branden Grace 40/1

Won at the Heritage last month and 9th at the Texas Open show that he is in decent form and this course should be to his liking. Rate his chances as better than players half his price.

Danny Willett 50/1

Suggestions that he might be undercooked have given us a decent price. Willett doesn't play to make up the numbers. He has only played six tournaments this year but has won two of them and has a third place. I expect him to be a serious contender this week.

Charley Hoffman 70/1

Won the Texas Open last month and with three consecutive Top 15 finishes is in good nick at the moment. Good value at this price.

Kevin Kisner 100/1

Runner up here last year so loves the course. A better player now with a win at the RSM Classic, a second at the HSBC and ninth at the Tournament of Champions. If he is on his A Game then he will be close.

Bill Haas 100/1

Fifth here a year ago and in a decent run of form with 9th, 8th, 2nd & 9th already this year. could be right there on Sunday.

Good Luck!
