The PGA Tour pitches up in the Lone Star State for the first of two events in Texas prior to the US Masters. The Memorial Park Golf Course is this weeks venue and distance off the tee and hitting a high percentage of greens in regulation are prerequisites if you want to contend here.


We have to start with Scottie Scheffler again. We left him alone for the The Players Championship as we thought 7.0 was not value, he won by a shot with a final round that no one could match. He is out on his own at the moment, shares the course record here, has not finished outside of the top 20 in any event so far this season, but again, we can’t tip him up at 3.95!


Our selection this week is Sahith Theegala. It’s a new homecoming for Theegala, who took up full-time residency in Houston last year. He’ll have fond memories in his return here, as he posted a Sunday-low round of 64 to close the 2023 Houston Open en route to a T22 finish. His form continues to trend upward as 2024 rolls on, with three top-10s over his last four starts. Newfound consistency has been the key to Theegala’s 2024 breakthrough, as he’s flipped his volatile driver into a reliable weapon.


A top-10 finisher in his Masters debut, this week will be a great litmus test for Theegala’s ability to go toe-to-toe with the World No. 1 on this difficult, firm, fast, and undulated layout.


Prediction: Sahith Theegala @ 22.0
