PGA Bets: 2022 Scottish Open
Winner Pick - Patrick Cantlay
After simulating this week's Scottish Open over 10,000 times, one of the guys that is presenting value in the outright winner market is Patrick Cantlay.
Last season's FedEx Cup champion, Cantlay has quietly been going about his business in 2021-22, with 12/14 made cuts, seven Top 10 finishes and a win at the team event Zurich.
Now, with one major on the slate for the year, it's time for Cantlay to get back to that late season form of 2021 and grab a win in the UK.
Our model currently ranks Cantlay as the seventh best golfer in the world and the fifth best chance to win this week, with his recent results as follows: 2nd, 1st, CUT, T3, T14, T13.
Clearly the UCLA alum is in strong form, with the +2500 not the only bet that looks good to make on Cantlay this week, with our model also detecting edges:
- Patrick Cantlay to finish in the Top 10: +250
- Patrick Cantlay to finish in the Top 20: +120
