As the most rowdy and top-attended event on Tour, the WM Phoenix Open is going to be a ton of fun to watch and bet this week. Highlighted by arguably the most epic hole in golf (the Par 3 16th nicknamed “The Coliseum”), a 134-man field will take to the Par-71, 7,261-yard TPC Scottsdale course in hopes of earning a share of the healthy $20 million purse. Unlike some of the island destinations on Tour, this course takes place in the Sonoran Desert and errant shots will have to deal with that terrain. With that being said, distance and accuracy off the tee will be important this week and some of the longest hitters could see massive yardage numbers based on the dry air. Below, we will cover our model's best bet for the winner of the tournament along with best bets for four other finishing positions.

BetQL's predictive PGA model takes into account overall player performance, recent form, course strengths and weaknesses per player and sportsbook odds. It has been developed and tested throughout previous seasons and has compiled historical data from 25+ years of golfer and course history.
