To win outright (2 points win @ 9/1).
Current form (last 5 starts): 8 – T1 – T38 – T10 – T3.
Tournament form (last 5 starts): T25 – MC – T2 – T34 – T13.
Reasons to believe – Xander Schauffele:
“Xander has returned to California and we’re hoping that being back home will bring him some much-needed comfort. Over the years, he has shown progress with his performance here, earning a T2 and 3 top 25 finishes at this event. Not to mention, he secured a fantastic T7 during the US Open held at this very venue. And just last week, he impressed us with a T3 finish, so he arrives here in very good form.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Max Homa:
To win outright (2 points win @ 10/1).
Current form (last 5 starts): T13 – T7 – T1 – T13 – T14.
Tournament form (last 5 starts): DNP – T9 – T18 – MC – 1.
Reasons to believe – Max Homa:
“Homa, the reigning champion, arrives here in great form with an impressive tally of 5 top 15 finishes in his last 5 starts. This recent run of form also includes a well-deserved victory. With such consistent performances, it’s safe to say that Homa definitely has a chance of retaining his title this week!” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Sungjae Im:
Each-way (1 point e/w @ 20/1 – 8 places, 1/5 odds).

Tournament form (last 5 starts): T52 – T36 – T32 – T6 – T4.
Reasons to believe – Sungjae Im:
“I am impressed with Im, a talented player who has had a great start to the season. He secured a top 5 finish two weeks ago and finished 25th last week. Not to mention, he has a fantastic track record at this event with 5 consecutive cuts made. I truly believe this could be the season where Im showcases his immense talent and achieves several victories on Tour.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Eric Cole:
Each-way (1 point e/w @ 33/1 – 8 places, 1/5 odds).

Tournament form (last 5 starts): DNP – DNP – DNP – DNP – MC.
Reasons to believe – Eric Cole:
“Apologies, but Eric Cole’s name continues to pop up while compiling my data, so I need to stick to the system and keep tipping him! However, I do believe he deserves to be here, as he is performing exceptionally well. Given the challenging nature of this course, his impressive skills and good recent form, I expect him to contend again this week.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Big Dal’s, big price outsider – Sepp Straka:
Each-way (1 point e/w @ 33/1 – 8 places, 1/5 odds).
Current form (last 5 starts): T6 – T10 – T22 – 2 – T12.
Tournament form (last 5 starts): T13 – MC – T32 – T16 – DNP.
Reasons to believe – Sepp Straka:
“Sepp is currently at the peak of his career in terms of the world rankings and has arrived here in excellent form. He has achieved five top 25 finishes in a row, including three top 10 performances. Moreover, he has demonstrated his skills at this course before, with a respectable T13 and T16. Given his playing style, Sepp seems like a contender here this week and at a good price too.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
