The now-elevated Waste'Management Open is just a week away, continuing the trend that this isn’t always an event that draws many of the world’s top-10 players.
There are several players who have won major tournaments in the field, however, including Matt Fitzpatrick, the U.S. Open champion, Jordan Spieth, and Justin Rose,. Other elite players such as Viktor Hovland, and Tom Hoge, the reigning champion, will be the favorites in the betting markets.
Seamus Power, who won the Bermuda Championship, and players like Kevin Kisner and Matt Kuchar are among those who have had success here,'while rookies like Davis Thompson, Maverick McNealy, and Denny McCarthy will be aiming for their first PGA TOUR victory in slightly more laid-back conditions than usual.
Of course, since this is a pro-am event, you’ll also see the swings of A-list celebrities from Hollywood (Jason Bateman, Michael Pena, Bill Murray, etc.), athletes (Aaron Rodgers), and many more.
