Steelers vs Jaguars -4.5 O/U 36.5
📍 Game Details
Kickoff: 7:00 PM ET / 4:00 PM PT
Location: EverBank Stadium, Jacksonville, FL
Broadcast: FOX30 (Jacksonville), CBS/KDKA (Pittsburgh), streaming on NFL+
🔍 Key Storylines
🐆 Jaguars
New Era Begins: Head coach Liam Coen makes his debut, bringing an aggressive offensive philosophy from his time with Tampa Bay.
Trevor Lawrence Starts: The Jaguars will play most of their starters for a few series, including QB Trevor Lawrence.
Travis Hunter’s Debut: The second-overall pick will play both WR and CB, a rare two-way role that’s generating major buzz.
🛡️ Steelers
Starters Sitting: Pittsburgh will rest at least 15 of their 22 starters, including Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, and Calvin Austin III.
QB Rotation: Expect Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson to split reps behind a mostly intact offensive line.
Defensive Depth Test: With most defensive starters out, the Steelers will rely on backups to contain Jacksonville’s first-team offense.
Weather: Mostly cloudy, warm and muggy with a high of 81 degrees. 48% chance of rain. Possible a few showers.
Prediction:
Lots of money came on the Jaguars when we found out that they are playing their starters. I think this line may have moved too far. While the Jags have some studs on their team, we cannot forget who their backups are. After Trevor Lawrence at quarterback, we have Nick Mullens, John Wolford, and Seth Henigan. Who???? I expect these guys to play most of the game. While we will not see Aaron Rogers for the Steelers, we will se some Mason Rudolph and some Skyler Thompson. These guys are not exactly world beaters, but they certainly have a leg up on what the Jaguars have to offer. Lastly, we have to remember that Steelers coach Mike Tomlin has a fantastic preseason record of 41-23 at 63% winning percentage. He likes to win these games. We do not have information on Jaguars coach Liem Coan just yet, but I assume he isn’t quite as aggressive as Tomlin when it comes to meaningless games. I think the Steelers might win this, but let’s take the points for the larger play.

The Circa NFL football contests are back for 2025, and they’ve never been more massive or more thrilling. If you’re a sports bettor and haven’t explored these legendary betting challenges, it’s time to dive in and ask yourself why you’re missing out on all the action. Circa Millions VII returns with a robust format—an 18-week NFL contest where you pick five games each week against the spread using fixed lines. The goal? Outsmart the competition and claim the jaw-dropping $1 million top prize and the prestigious blue winner’s jacket. On top of that, there’s a guaranteed $6 million in total payouts, no rake involved.
Last season’s overlay was over $100,000 thus adding serious value for every entrant. Quarterly prizes continue with $300,000 handed out to the top five scorers each quarter. Even if one quarter goes sideways, you’ve got three more chances to make a comeback. At year’s end, places two through one hundred split a hefty $3.65 million. For those who are flirting with infamy, there’s now a second-place booby prize worth $50,000, plus $25,000 booby prizes doled out quarterly. As they say—if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
Then there’s the Circa Survivor. This 18-week, 20-pick contest is all about choosing one team each week to win outright. Survive all 18 weeks, and you’ll get a shot at the gigantic $15 million guaranteed prize pool. If more than one contestant survives the gauntlet, the pot gets split accordingly. Circa Sports CEO Derek Stevens is pushing the limits again, adding an extra $6 million in guaranteed money, raising the total contest payouts to an astonishing $21 million, all with no rake. These contests aren’t just back—they’re blowing the roof off of everything else in the betting world.
Circa Millions:
Circa Millions has 6 million dollars in guaranteed payouts! The quarterly prizes include $300,000 paid out to the top 5 quarterly scored participants. Just in case you have a rough quarter, you still can potentially win the next! This contest is also paying out 3.65M to the top 2-100 entries at the end of the year! There is now a second place booby prize for $50,000.00 and $25,000.00 booby prizes that are paid out every quarter. Playing Millions is a little different than sports betting in itself as in the lines are always locked in place, and the strategy can be different depending on where your specific entry ranks for the quarter or for the year. Here are the highlights below courtesy of Circa Sports.
$1,000 to enter, 5 entries per person max
Make 5 NFL picks against the spread each week
Get one point for each correct selection and one-half point for each push
$6 Million guaranteed in total prizes
$1 Million first place prize and the coveted blue jacket
$3.65 Million in cash prizes for places 2 – 100
$300,000 per “Quarter” in prizes awarded every 4-5 weeks
$100,000 last place booby prize / $50,000 second to last place booby prize
No Rake! Any extra fees go into the quarter and full-season prizes
Circa Survivor:
Circa Survivor now has a guaranteed 15 million dollars in total payouts! That is 5 million more than last season due to a huge 14,270,000.00 in last year’s pot! There are 20 total legs in this contest with Thanksgiving day games and Christmas games being their own week. Here are the highlights below.
$1,000 to enter, 10 entries per person max (can rebuy up to ten additional entries until the registration deadline if you lose on the opening TNF or Friday game)

Entries are eliminated from the contest by selecting a team that subsequently loses or ties its NFL game that week or continues until a single entry remains
The contest continues until a single entry remains
If more than one entry remains after all 20 legs, the pool is split equally among all the entries that successfully submitted a selection during the leg
If all remaining entries lose in the same week, the pool is split equally among all the entries that successfully submitted a selection during the leg

The rules are the same as Circa Survivor, but with a much larger buy in at $100,000.00 per entry for a guaranteed minimum payout of $1,500,000.00! This contest will have much less entries than Survivor, making it an interesting and potentially different strategy for each participant in order to take home the big prize!

Another NFL season is here, and wow does time fly. Looking to cash in on some big opportunities in the preseason market. It is pretty well known that betting preseason football is quite a bit different than during regular season football due to coaching changes, preseason goals, shorter pre-season, quarterback changes, new coordinators, rule changes, and maybe the most important factors in motivation. Coaching philosophy is the single most important factor when handicapping pre-season football and it is imperative that we know what some of these coaches did in the past to try and accurately predict the future. Some coaches are very motivated to win preseason games, or at least certain ones, and some coaches do not care to win these games at all.
Since last NFL football season, there have been seven head coaching changes, and one rule change that could effect the way that these games are being played out. That rule change is a modification to the kickoff return. Touchbacks will now be moved to the 35 yard line instead of the 30. When the touchback is moved to the 35-yard line in 2025, it’s expected to encourage teams to kick the ball into the landing zone, therefore forcing a return, rather than simply gift their opponent an additional 5 yards.
As far as the coaching changes are concerned, we do have data on two of the coaches in Pete Carroll and Mike Vrable to make educated preseason motivational decisions. We hope to use this data and information to capitalize on a successful preseason from a sports betting perspective. It is also important to understand that we need a good sample size to start making determinations on what these coaches are more prone to do. I personally have to have at least eight games played, or three seasons of pre-season football to make a determination. As said earlier, some coaches are very bullish on winning games that have zero significance to what their record will be at the end of the season, and some coaches do not care whatsoever and will instead be a lot looser with their play calling, and very liberal on which athletes that they will put into play the game. Coaches that want to win in the preseason will play a lot of their good 1st, 2nd and 3rd string players and determine if their lower tier players will make the team during training camp and OTAs. They also like to stick to their main playbook without fear of showing their hand in the preseason. Other coaches that do not care much at all about winning will tend to play their worst players to determine if they will make the team during the preseason games rather than in practice or OTAs. These “bearish” coaches will also try out a lot of new plays during the games that were created in the offseason, or plays that were never a factor in their playbook in the previous years.
Unfortunately, coaches come and go and every year we seem to lose at least one money maker. After last season we had to say goodbye to coach Dennis Allen who was 8-13 at 31%. This guy was so bad that he may actually had been trying to win. On the other side of things, we had to say goodbye to Matt Eberflus from the Bears who was 8-2 or 80% preseason win rate. The only games that he could win were in the preseason. Lastly, we way goodbye to Robert Saleh who was an amazing 10-2 in the preseason. An 83% win rate was nice, but there is much less than an 83% chance that he will be back at coaching anytime soon. Rough hits to the pocket book if you ask me.
For 2025, some of the most winning coaches who will be paying our bills will be:
Mike Tomlin at 41-23 at 64% – Although he somehow went 0-3 last season. Small sample size.
Pete Carroll at 28-21 at 57% – Pistol Pete is back and stronger than ever. Now in Vegas, he can make his fans and bettors happy.
John Harbaugh at 45-16 at 74% – Not a great last two years, but hey, his backup quarterbacks pretty much sucked.
Some of the most losing coaches who could also help pay some bills are:
Dan Quinn at 7-17 at 29% – Losing in the preseason means winning in life.
Nick Siriani at 3-7 at 30% – Super bowl preseason hangover is coming.
Zac Taylor at 3-12 at 20% – Let’s just piss off the rest of the team.
There also is a lot of up and comers with coaches like Demeco Ryans at 5-2 at 71% as well as Brian Callahan at 3-0 at 100%, and Nick Siriani at 3-7 at 30%.
When looking at coaching records, it is also very important to look at how they approach the preseason. We must be cognizant enough to know what these coaches do in the beginning, the middle and at the end. Looking in the past for many of these coaches, they use to have four preseason games rather than three. I basically had to combine weeks two and three for the NFL Preseason before 2021. Some of the significant data that we found show that Jon Harbaugh is 15-2 in game one but only 9-8 at the final week. Maybe be a little more careful with that. Another look is Dan Quinn who is 1-10 in the middle weeks or what is now looked at as week 2, yet 4-2 in the final week. Another coach to look at Sean Payton who is 19-11 in the middle weeks yet 5-11 in the final. If you want an extra edge in your handicapping, looking at these week to week records could certainly help.
I know what you are thinking. Why are you giving me coaching records per game rather than straight ATS? Well, the reason for this is that preseason spreads are usually very small due to the fact that the best teams are not always trying to win and the worst teams might have some more skin in the game when it comes to QB competition. The winning team usually covers, so motivation can be read more easily just based on the coaching records.
A few things to keep in mind for 2025. The preseason schedule remains only three games. Even though this change is still at it’s youth, I do not think that it factors in much to what these coaches do with respect to their history in the in the first game, the middle game, and in their last game.
In summary, it can certainly be profitable to bet preseason football if you understand how some of these coaches approach their season juxtaposed with what some of these other teams want to accomplish. If you have any questions about this, feel free to tweet me @OBKiev or @TheOddsBreakers.

The 2025 Wyndham Championship, the final event of the FedExCup Regular Season, promises another exciting week of golf at Sedgefield Country Club, but first, let’s recap the highlights and key takeaways from last week’s tournament before we jump into this week’s action.
Kurt Kitayama wins the 3M Open
20 birdies for Kurt Kitayama on the weekend alone!
Kurt Kitayama cashed a 40-1 ticket for us with his win at the 3M Open last week! He lit up the weekend, firing a course-record 60 on Saturday, followed by a 65 on Sunday to win by a shot. Making it even more special, his brother Daniel was on the bag for the victory.
In this preview, I’ll highlight the key storylines, analyze the course, and share my picks to help you gain an edge at this year’s Wyndham Championship. Let’s dive into the main storylines driving the action this week…
Pre-Tournament Storylines:
Aaron Rai Looks to Defend His Title at the Wyndham Championship
Aaron Rai captured his first PGA TOUR victory at the 85th Wyndham Championship, winning a grueling 72-hole event played over three days due to weather delays. Rai closed with a bogey-free 64 on Sunday, capping a 36-hole marathon and securing the win.
He now returns to Sedgefield Country Club looking to become the first player to win back-to-back Wyndham Championships since Sam Snead. Snead, who holds the record for most wins at this event, went back-to-back twice—first in 1949 and 1950, then again in 1955 and 1956. No other golfer has repeated as champion in tournament history.
What’s at Stake This Week at the Wyndham Championship
The Wyndham Championship isn’t just the final stop of the PGA TOUR regular season—it’s one of the most pivotal weeks on the calendar. With careers, playoff hopes, and millions of dollars on the line, this tournament consistently delivers high-stakes drama. Here’s what’s at stake:
The top 70 players in the FedExCup standings after the Wyndham Championship will punch their ticket to the postseason, beginning with the FedEx St. Jude Championship. The Playoffs then progress to the BMW Championship (top 50) and conclude with the TOUR Championship (top 30). Each step comes with increased opportunity—and pressure—as players chase the season-long FedExCup title.
$100 Million FedExCup Bonus Pool
Players advancing through the playoffs will compete for a share of the $100 million FedExCup bonus pool, with the eventual FedExCup Champion earning a staggering $25 million. The TOUR Championship features a staggered start based on FedExCup standings, rewarding season-long consistency and playoff performance.
The $40 Million Comcast Business TOUR Top 10
The Wyndham Championship also finalizes the standings for the Comcast Business TOUR Top 10, a $40 million bonus pool split among the top 10 players in the regular season FedExCup standings. These players are recognized for elite consistency and will earn a significant financial reward before the playoffs even begin.
2026 Signature Event Eligibility
Looking ahead, this week also helps determine who will qualify for the TOUR’s 2026 Signature Events. The top 50 players who advance to the second playoff event (the BMW Championship) are fully exempt into these high-purse, limited-field events—including THE PLAYERS Championship and all eight Signature Events—next season. Players ranked 51–70 also secure full status for the following year, though they will not be guaranteed spots in Signature Events.
From season-saving performances to playoff-shaping drama, the Wyndham Championship remains one of the most important weeks on the PGA TOUR calendar.
The Wyndham Championship is the PGA TOUR’s seventh longest-running event, debuting in 1938 under the name Greater Greensboro Open. Designed to bring elite golf to North Carolina, the tournament quickly became a mainstay on the schedule. Its early years saw play split between Sedgefield Country Club and Starmount Forest Country Club, both in Greensboro. From 1938 through 1942, players contested two rounds at each venue before the event paused during World War II. When it resumed in 1945, the tournament alternated sites annually until 1951, when Starmount hosted the next ten editions exclusively.
A pivotal moment in the tournament’s history came in 1960. After a harsh winter left Starmount in poor shape, Sam Snead—who won that year for a record-setting seventh time—quipped that course owner Edward Benjamin should dig up some of his rumored tomato-can cash and fix the grounds. The remark didn’t sit well with Benjamin, who banned Snead from Starmount for life. Though it sparked controversy, the incident helped usher in a new chapter. With larger crowds and greater demand, Sedgefield’s more spacious property became the event’s sole home until 1977, when the tournament shifted to Forest Oaks Country Club, where it stayed for 31 years.
In 2007, a $3 million restoration led by architect Kris Spence brought Sedgefield’s Donald Ross layout back to its original brilliance, updating the course to modern TOUR standards. The renovated track welcomed the Wyndham Championship back in 2008.
Since then, the tournament has reestablished itself at Sedgefield, where precision iron play and a sharp short game are essential on its tree-lined fairways and challenging Bermuda greens. The event now serves as the final regular-season stop on the PGA TOUR, giving it major significance for players hoping to lock in FedEx Cup Playoff spots or secure their TOUR cards.

Course Guide/ Scorecard:
Sedgefield Country Club, designed by the legendary Donald Ross, is a par-70 course measuring 7,131 yards. It presents a balanced test with four par 3s, twelve par 4s, and two par 5s, demanding precision and smart course management. While scoring chances exist, players must carefully navigate the narrow fairways, undulating greens, and unpredictable winds to contend for the Wyndham Championship.
Sedgefield Country Club measures 7,131 yards, making it the 19th shortest course on the PGA TOUR this season. The fairways are narrow, averaging 29 yards wide, ranking among the 9th narrowest on TOUR, so accuracy off the tee is essential. The greens are smaller than the PGA TOUR average at around 6,000 square feet, putting a premium on precise approach shots. With only 52 bunkers—the 7th fewest on TOUR—hazards are less of a factor here.
The four par 3s at Sedgefield Country Club range from 174 to 235 yards, placing a premium on precision and smart club selection. In last year’s Wyndham Championship, only holes No. 3 and No. 16 played under par on average, while the others (No. 7 and No. 12) proved to be more penal, especially given their length.
This mid-length par three hole is generally played into the prevailing wind and contains three of the deepest bunkers on the course, short and right. The large, somewhat subtle green narrows the deeper into the green one plays. Long and left is a very difficult up and down, with the green sloping away from the player.
On this long par three, the green is guarded on three sides by a deep creek and features a soft punch bowl green with very difficult hole locations in the corners. Par is a great score on this demanding hole.
The longest par three on the course will require a very precise approach into a dramatic two-tier green cut into the face of a hill. Anything short will roll well back from the green and require a difficult up and down. Dead center of this green is the preferred line and will give the player the best chance of escaping with a par or occasional birdie.
This short par three will provide the player an opportunity to be aggressive. However, the horseshoe-shaped green will wreak havoc on misplayed tee shots and chips from around the green. Two four-foot-deep pot bunkers guarding the green require a demanding short iron approach.
Sedgefield Country Club features twelve par 4s, most of which fall between 400 and 450 yards. Strategy plays a major role, particularly on holes that offer tempting risk-reward opportunities. In 2024, the two toughest par 4s were the 14th and 18th. Each measure over 500 yards and demands both distance and precision.
One of the best holes ever designed by Donald Ross. The tee shot will require a slight fade over the middle of three diagonal cross bunkers to set up the shortest and best line into a green that’s well-protected on the right by a creek. Approach shots should favor the left side of the green, which leans hard right toward the creek.
The 13th hole is one of the most strategic holes on the course. The left side of the landing area funnels into the left rough, leaving a blind approach over two cross bunkers. The smart play is along the right side, providing an open view and short iron into this highly undulating green.
One of the most beautiful holes in North Carolina. This deep, saddled fairway meanders up an old creek bed filled in by Ross. A short iron approach into the smallest green on the course is compounded by the difficulty of finding a level lie in the fairway. A natural amphitheater surrounds the green, making it a great place to view an exciting finish.
This members’ par five converted to a long par four will be the most difficult on the course. A tee shot to the crest of the downhill-sloping fairway leaves an uphill long iron or fairway metal into this severely undulating hilltop green. The most difficult hole location is atop a large roll in the back right corner of the green. Birdies from this location will be difficult.
Both par 5s at Sedgefield, No. 5 and No. 15, played under par in 2024 and present the best birdie or eagle chances on the course. That said, hitting the fairway is crucial to capitalize on these scoring opportunities.
The first par five of the course is easily reachable in two shots. However, a deep hollow running diagonally across the putting surface will make getting up and down for birdie a challenge. The key to this hole is finding a level lie in the well-undulating fairway. Any shot hit short of this green will roll well back down the fairway
The ideal tee shot to this reachable par five is directly at the fairway bunker. The downhill tee shot must avoid the “sheeps” fescue grass to the right and just over the bunker. Deep bunkers surround this undulating green. The far back right corner pin is the most difficult location, especially if going for the green in two.
As the Wyndham Championship returns to Sedgefield Country Club, understanding how the course compares to PGA TOUR averages can help identify which players are best suited for success. Here’s how Sedgefield Country Club stacks up statistically:

According to DataGolf, players who perform well at Sedgefield Country Club tend to excel in ball striking and accuracy off the tee. The course features narrow, tree-lined fairways on nearly every hole, placing a premium on precision from the start of each hole.
Strokes Gained: Approach
Approach play continues to be one of the most predictive stats at Sedgefield Country Club. With generous green sizes and plenty of accessible pin locations, players who can dial in their irons create the most scoring chances—an essential ingredient for going low in Greensboro.
Each of the last five Wyndham Championship winners finished inside the top 12 in SG: Approach for the week. Three of those champions ranked 4th or better, and two led the entire field in the category, highlighting just how important sharp iron play is at this course.

Strokes Gained: Ball Striking
Ball striking combines a player’s performance off the tee and on approach, measuring overall control and consistency with longer clubs. At Sedgefield Country Club, where accuracy is more important than distance and greens are small and well-protected, elite ball striking is essential to staying in contention.
In 2024, all of the top five finishers ranked inside the top four in SG: Ball Striking. Champion Aaron Rai led the field in the category, while J.J. Spaun and Ryo Hisatsune, who tied for third, ranked 4th and 2nd, respectively. Luke Clanton, who finished fifth, was 3rd in ball striking. This pattern underscores how important this metric is to success at Sedgefield.

Strokes Gained: Putting (Bermudagrass)
Sedgefield Country Club features Champion bermudagrass greens.
Four of the last five Wyndham Championship winners ranked 15th or better in SG: Putting. The exception was Aaron Rai in 2024, who ranked 28th in this category. His strong iron play actually impacted his SG: Putting rank because closer approach shots raise putting expectations, leaving fewer long putts and fewer opportunities to gain strokes on the field.

Proximity: 100-175, 200+ Yards
At Sedgefield Country Club, a high volume of approach shots land in the 100-to-175-yard range, with a smaller but still meaningful share coming from beyond 200 yards. This reflects the course’s emphasis on wedge and mid-iron precision, while also testing long-iron play on several lengthy par 4s and both par 5s.
Success at the Wyndham Championship often comes down to who can dial it in from these key yardages and consistently give themselves realistic birdie looks.

Will There Be a Playoff at the Wyndham Championship? (Yes +350 / No -500)
Since its inception in 1938, the Wyndham Championship has delivered its fair share of drama, and playoffs have played a major role in that history. Over the years, the tournament has gone to extra holes 18 times, highlighting the tight competition and high stakes that often define this late-season PGA TOUR event.
The most recent playoff came in 2021 and was one for the record books. It featured a six-man sudden-death playoff, tying the PGA TOUR record for the largest playoff field in history. Kevin Kisner ultimately emerged victorious, earning his first individual stroke-play win in a playoff after five previous attempts.
Will There Be a Hole-in-One at the Wyndham Championship? (Yes -250/ No +160)
In 2024, there were two holes-in-one, both coming on the 12th hole during the second round. Joe Highsmith and Lucas Glover each recorded an ace on that hole, adding a spark to Friday’s action.
The 2023 tournament did not feature any holes-in-one.
In 2022, Joseph Bramlett delivered the lone ace of the week.
Will There Be a Wire-to-Wire Winner at the Wyndham Championship? (Yes +800)
There have only been nine wire-to-wire winners in the history of the Wyndham Championship, with the most recent coming in 2018. Sam Snead remains the only player to accomplish the feat twice, doing so in 1938, the tournament’s inaugural year, and again in 1950.

Picks:
Outrights
Matt Fitzpatrick (+2000) – FanDuel
It’s no secret I have a bit of a Fitzpatrick addiction. I cooled off on betting him earlier this year, but with his recent form, that’s quickly changed.
Fitzpatrick enters the Wyndham Championship with three top 10s in his last four starts, including back-to-back top 5 finishes. His ball striking has rounded back into form, and his accuracy off the tee has improved—two crucial elements for success at Sedgefield. He also rates well across several key stats this week and fits the recent trend of past winners, having finished T8 or better at the Rocket Mortgage Classic last month.
Lucas Glover (+4000) – DraftKings
Lucas Glover, a past champion of this event (2023), returns to Sedgefield in solid form, with finishes of T9 at the Travelers, T5 at the John Deere, and T23 at The Open in his last three starts.
Glover, one of the best iron players on TOUR, has rediscovered his rhythm after a slow start to the season. His ball-striking remains a strength, and his improved accuracy off the tee gives him plenty of chances to attack flags on this layout. Encouragingly, he’s also putted well over his last two starts—a trend that’s going to need to continue if he wants to win this week.
Michael Thorbjornsen (+6500) – FanDuel
Michael Thorbjornsen let down a lot of bettors last week at the 3M Open, missing the cut after being a popular pick. But don’t write him off just yet.
Before last week’s stumble, Thorbjornsen was in solid form with three straight top-25 finishes, including an impressive T4 at the Rocket Mortgage Classic—another Donald Ross layout.
If he can rediscover his iron play, he has the upside to contend. While that’s a bit of an ask, we’ve already seen him do it recently. I’m treating last week as a blip and backing a bounce-back.
Emiliano Grillo (+7000) – FanDuel
Emiliano Grillo arrives at the Wyndham Championship with some urgency, currently sitting 66th in the FedEx Cup standings. While he’s in the field for next week’s event as of now, he’d likely prefer to secure his spot himself rather than rely on others slipping.
Grillo is coming off a solid T20 finish at last week’s 3M Open and has posted five top 20 finishes in his last nine starts, including a runner-up at the John Deere Classic, where he lost in a playoff to Brian Campbell. His overall game remains steady, and if he can get his putting clicking, he should be a contender this week.
Joohyung (Tom) Kim (+8000) – FanDuel
Tom Kim’s last win came in 2023, but he came close twice—falling in a playoff to Scottie Scheffler at the Travelers Championship (a week we were on him) and finishing runner-up again to Scheffler at the Hero World Challenge.
After a slow start to this season, Kim has started to turn things around. He posted a T17 at the Genesis Scottish Open and followed that with a T28 at last week’s 3M Open. The recent jump in form is thanks in large part to improved iron play. His accuracy off the tee remains steady, and his putting has also shown signs of life—both encouraging signs for this week.
Kim won this event in 2022 in his only prior start at Sedgefield. At 80-1, he’s more than capable of making a run.
Andrew Putnam (+9000) – DraftKings
Similar to Thorbjornsen, I’m viewing Putnam’s missed cut at the 3M Open as more of an outlier than a red flag. There’s still plenty of upside here. He’s one of the most accurate drivers in the field, which is a great foundation for success at Sedgefield.
Putnam’s short game has been excellent lately—his putting and around-the-green play have both been sharp. While his iron play hasn’t been up to his usual standard, there are signs it’s starting to turn around. If the approach numbers continue trending upward, he has a real shot at contending.
Chris Kirk (+11000) – FanDuel
Chris Kirk has shown flashes of excellence this season, highlighted by a T2 finish at the Rocket Mortgage Classic, where he lost in a three-man playoff. In his most recent start, he finished T14 at the 3M Open, gaining strokes in every category and ranking 9th in the field in SG: Approach.
While putting has been his weakness for much of the season, he’s gained strokes with the flat stick in three of his last four starts—an encouraging trend heading into this week.
Kirk’s best finish at the Wyndham Championship came back in 2018 when he finished T11, gaining nearly two strokes on the greens. If his putter cooperates, he could be in the mix again.
Kevin Roy (+12000) – FanDuel
Kevin Roy finished T28 at last week’s 3M Open, doing most of his damage with the putter. While his wedges and irons weren’t sharp, his elite putting kept him inside the top 30.
Earlier this summer, Roy flashed real upside with three straight top-20 finishes from the RBC Canadian Open through the John Deere Classic. If he can regain that level of iron play while continuing to roll it well, he could be a factor this week. His off-the-tee numbers dipped at the 3M—an uncharacteristic blip for him—but he’s typically more accurate and should bounce back.
Roy also has some form on Donald Ross designs, finishing T8 at the Rocket Mortgage Classic last month. At 120-1, he’s worth a flier.

Solid season, but his xFIP of 4.07 suggests some regression may be coming.
Giants: Logan Webb (9–7, 3.08 ERA)
Ranked as a top-10 starter by projection models, with a stellar 2.58 FIP indicating he’s been unlucky.
🔥 Recent Form
Mets: 6–4 in their last 10, riding a 4-game win streak after sweeping the Angels.
Giants: 3–7 in their last 10, but just took two from Atlanta to regain momentum.
💪 Key Players to Watch
Mets:
Juan Soto: 24 HR, ranks 10th in MLB.
Pete Alonso: 80 RBI, batting .272, 5th in MLB RBI.
Francisco Lindor: Snapped a brutal 0-for-31 slump with multi-hit games.
Giants:
Rafael Devers: 19 HR, 73 RBI, heating up with a .364 average over his last 5 games.
Jung Hoo Lee & Heliot Ramos: Providing steady contact and extra-base potential.
Weather:
A Brisk 60 degrees in the Bay area with the wind blowing out to center field at 9.8 MPH.
Prediction:
Today’s game is all about the starting pitching. Clay Holmes takes the mound for the Mets boasting a 3.48 ERA yet a 4.2 FIP. Logan Webb takes the helm for the Giants with a 3.08 ERA and a 2.58 FIP. As of late, Holmes has been faltering. He has allowed 5 runs two out of his last three appearances. He had a great April/May and has since faltered some. From a hitting standpoint, I have to give it to the Mets with all of the power in their lineup, but this is also a long travel spot for this team. Webb is the Giants ace, and if he can go 6 or 7 innings, I think the west cost G-men hold on to the lead. One also has to recognize all of the bullpen injuries that the Mets have as of late. Take San Fran.
