The favorite to win this week is Jon Rahm (+500), who leads the latest Golfweek/Sagarin rankings. Scottie Scheffler, No. 4 in the rankings, has the 2nd-best odds (+750). Of the top 11 players in this week’s Sagarin rankings, 6 of them are in the field in Albany.
Albany Golf Course is a par 72 and plays at 7,414 yards. The winning score last year was 18-under by Viktor Hovland, who is at +1500 in his quest for back-to-back titles. Being a links-style course, the fairways are framed by waste areas, so there isn’t much rough to contend with.
