Last week we won big on Brooks Koepka (+2200 a Bet FOX) at the PGA Championship. Let’s see if we can replicate the magic as we turn our attention to the Colonial for the Charles Schwab Challenge.
The par-70 course is 7,209 yards long with Bentgrass greens. The 87-year-old course has hosted the tournament since 1946, making it the longest-running non-major tournament at the same venue. This helps us from a betting standpoint as we can explore a lot of data to help narrow down our card.
Sam Burns won the tournament last year in a playoff Scottie Scheffler. Burns comes this week at +2200 to repeat, while Scheffler is the clear favorite to win, +400 at FOX Bet. We’d be remiss if we didn’t mention PGA pro Michael Block, who was the real hero last weekend outside of Koepka. Block, a sponsor’s exemption this week, is listed at +30000 to win the tournament.
I can go on and on about how good Scheffler is, but his number is too short for me to throw some pizzazz on it.
Now that we’ve started with the basics, let’s get into the favorites and my absolute portfolio for this tournament.
