It has been an interesting start to the Sony Open on virtually all levels.
We saw Sungjae Im and Tom Kim, the two betting favorites, meekly bow out before the weekend – and that’s before we even get to what transpired with Jordan Spieth and his five-over Friday implosion to move from the first-round lead to an early ticket home.
That generated a wide range of emotions from bettors and DFS players alike, but all was not lost with the chaos we witnessed over the opening two rounds.
While Keegan Bradley missing the cut did hurt in numerous ways from a financial perspective, we kept the recent streak alive in our Best Bets by connecting on Greyson Sigg +100 over Robby Shelton. The concerns I had for Shelton with his ball striking and birdie rate ended up coming to fruition over a forgettable four-over output.
