Puerto Rico Open Field
Most of the top touring pros are playing in the Arnold Palmer Invitational this week, making this an opportunity for 120 other pros to make their mark and improve their PGA Tour and FedExCup Points standings this week in Puerto Rico. Nearly all the 2022 Korn Ferry Tour graduates are in the field.
Puerto Rico Open Picks & Predictions
Four of the last five winners have shot 19 under par or better to win the Puerto Rico Open. Grand Reserve is a diverse, wind-exposed course with Paspalum grass. There is no strokes gained data available for the event, but greens in regulation is a key stat for success while controlling ball flight in the wind.
Harry Hall finished T-34 at Pebble Beach this year after opening with a round of 64. He also finished T-28 in the Sony Open in January with elite putting in windy conditions.
The 25-year-old Englishman and former UNLV star makes his debut in this event, but he also shined on the Korn Fe rry Tour last year, winning the NV5 Invitational (-22) in May and finishing top 5 in two of his next eight Korn Ferry starts. Hall is a top-tier putter who can handle the wind, control his ball flight and score. A breakthrough on the PGA Tour is coming.
Bet: Harry Hall to Win (+3500) and Finish Top 10
