Plenty of questions are popping up from the latest news of the PGA Tour and rival LIV tour as they have now merged together. We will not be getting too much into this, as we are focused on the RBC Canadian Open this weekend and making oodles of cash.
This week, we head to Canada for the known Canadian Masters as the locals call it. It’s typically a spectacular tournament with a loaded field of players. This year looks a little different as many star players with the exception of 10 or so taking the week off to prepare for the U.S. Open next weekend. However, this will still be an action-packed tournament and Rory has his eyes on a 3-peat.
Oakdale Golf Course is 7200 yards making it one of the PGA’s shortest courses on tour. Nonetheless shapes up perfectly for a fun weekend of golf and low scores. We will be targeting players that have competed well at this course in prior tournaments. Will be looking at fantastic greens in regulation stats as well as strokes gained putting.
We are coming off an excellent weekend backing Viktor Hovland Top 20 & Outright Winner +2000. We hope to keep the ball rolling this week at Oakdale Golf Course.

This week we will be looking into players who are very solid golfers with sneaky talent and awesome value.
Sam Burns
We’ve backed Sam Burns a lot this year and we will continue to do so. Sam, as said in previous blogs has all the tools to win each and every tournament. He drives the golf ball great, his irons are very solid hitting a high percentage of greens in regulation and his strokes gained putting continues to be a top 20 on tour. Burns has been playing lights out this year and was T-4 last year at Oakdale Golf Course. We see zero signs of why he wouldn’t continue his positive play again this week. Sam Burns Top 20 (-115) Outright Winner (+1400)
Corey Conners
This week we are going after a Canadian in his home country Corey Conners. Corey’s game shapes up nicely at this tournament and has had himself one of the best years on tour of his career. Conners finished 6th last year at Oakdale Golf Course and feels very comfortable playing in front of his home fans cheering him on. I have no doubts CC will be coming out firing on all cylinders this week again. Corey Conners top 20 (-130) Outright Winner (+1800)
Shane Lowry
We will also be backing Shane Lowry this week. Shane sticks out to me this week because of his great play around the greens and his recent success on the PGA Tour. Lowry is very consistent and relies on good play to keep cashing paychecks. Shane doesn’t do anything worlds better than others, but his consistent play and success at Oakdale leads me to believe he will perform well this week. He has great value for being a premium PGA tour golfer. Shane Lowry Top 20 (-115) Outright Winner (+2000)
Sahith Theegala
Finally, the last golfer we will be taking this week is Theegala. Sahith is still searching for his first solo win on the PGA tour and can’t think of anyone more deserving. Sahith has all the talent in the world in all facets of his game but has yet to put it all together for a week. I have a good feeling this course sets up well for his game and he will be motivated to play well. The value on Theegala is simply too good to pass up. Sahith Theegala Top 20 (+110) Outright Winner (+3000)
