Starting off with a bogey here will be a huge letdown so I love that this hole puts some stress on the players to start their round<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Hole 5 530 yard Par 5<\/strong>-I love quirky holes, and this was one of the easiest holes on the course so they just put a random bunker in the middle of the fairway at 300 yards. I love it. It\u2019s not a big bunker, but it will surely be in some players heads and if you miss left or right or put it in the bunker, this goes from an easy birdie hole to a par hole. Hopefully, this bunker gets a workout this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Hole 14 305 yard Par 4<\/strong>-This looks like a drivable Par 4, and most guys will give it a rip, but the green is the smallest on the course, and there are a lot bunkers to try and avoid. Should be a fun hole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Hole 18 677 yard Par 5<\/strong>-It\u2019s an incredible tee shot as the tee shot is wide open and all tee shots feed the ball downhill and to the left, but iif the ball goes too far to the left, there is trouble so the tee shot needs to start right and roll left. It\u2019s a beautiful hole that will see it\u2019s fair share of birdies and bogeys.

First, we have a somewhat of a baby theory as they just had a baby in September. He played the Hero World Challenge, and did well, but that\u2019s a tourney with only 20 players in it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He doesn\u2019t play great here as he\u2019s finished 13th and 21st here the last two years, and his stats were bad this season due to a wrist injury. I think he\u2019s overpriced, and there are some good head to head matchups against him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Viktor Hovland<\/strong> &#8211; He just doesn\u2019t play well here for some reason. He\u2019s finished 18th, 30th<br>and 31st the last three years, and with the field being less than 40 players, that\u2019s awful. He\u2019s the second highest favorite, no chance I can invest in him with his course history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Patrick Cantlay<\/strong> &#8211; He\u2019s the third highest priced golfer, and we haven\u2019t seen him since the Ryder Cup and there\u2019s just a lot of drama with him right now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LIV rumors, slow play frustration, him bitching about money at the Ryder Cup while the US team was getting their heads stomped in\u2026I just don\u2019t know where his confidence level is at. He\u2019s finished 4th, 14th, 4th, and 16th in his 4 times playing here, I\u2019ll pass on him this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Sentry: DraftKings Darlings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cameron Davis $7100<\/strong>  -In a tournament with no cut, and on a course that rewards a hot putter, I\u2019ll take Cameron Davis who is +1.33 strokes gained putting over the last 3 months. He finished 10th here 2 years ago, so I\u2019ll take the high risk-high reward Davis at a low price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Eric Cole $7400<\/strong> &#8211; He was the Draftkings Darling MVP in 2023, and here we are again with a great price on him. He has the 17th best total strokes gained in this field the last 6 months, and I love how his putting has gotten better. Let\u2019s keep riding Eric Cole in DFS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sungjae Im $8100<\/strong> &#8211; Seems to be underpriced as he\u2019s finished 5th, 8th and 13th the last three years here, and he\u2019s 15th in total strokes gained the last 6 months. Big upside on him at $8100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Final Lineup: Cameron Davis, Eric Cole, Sunjae Im, Cameron Young, Collin Morikawa, Xander Schauffele<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Sentry: Additional Betting Notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>-Ignore the WD from Schauffele last year. He had a back injury pop up, and he finished 12th, 5th, 2nd, 1st the previous 4 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Matsuyama was really struggling with his neck issue at the end of the season, and he\u2019s finished 21st, 13th, and 41st the last three years here. He has the 13th worst total strokes gained in this field the last 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Wyndham Clark and Brian Harman definitely had hangovers after their major wins this year, but Clarks stats over the last 6 months are abysmal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>+0.33 total strokes gained, putting was bad, approaches were worst, and he was putting up similar numbers this time last year. He caught fire over a 9 tournament stretch last season, but outside of those he wasn\u2019t good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"amazing-offer-from-expert-nfl-handicappers\"><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>**************************************************<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Looking for more free sports picks and sports betting tips?<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>Latest Betting Odds and Public Action<\/strong><strong>: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wt.buzz\/odds\" data-schema-attribute=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vegas lines<\/a> updated in real time, including who the public is betting on. <\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Last Minute Handicapping Advice<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">: Check out our extensive library of <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/sports-betting-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">handicapping tips<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> and advice from professional Vegas handicappers (we also recommend taking the time to look over our <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/videos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sports betting tips video library<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">)<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Want an expert opinion?<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> Check out the latest <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/free-sports-picks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Free Sports Picks<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> and <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 12pt;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/picks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Best Bets<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> from our team of expert sports handicappers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Make sure to bookmark all the above!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Sentry Betting Preview WagerTalk golf handicapper Andy Lang offers his thoughts on The Sentry teeing off from Plantation Course Kapalua in Maui, Hawaii.

First, we have a somewhat of a baby theory as they just had a baby in September. He played the Hero World Challenge, and did well, but that\u2019s a tourney with only 20 players in it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>He doesn\u2019t play great here as he\u2019s finished 13th and 21st here the last two years, and his stats were bad this season due to a wrist injury. I think he\u2019s overpriced, and there are some good head to head matchups against him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Viktor Hovland<\/strong> - He just doesn\u2019t play well here for some reason. He\u2019s finished 18th, 30th<br>and 31st the last three years, and with the field being less than 40 players, that\u2019s awful. He\u2019s the second highest favorite, no chance I can invest in him with his course history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Patrick Cantlay<\/strong> - He\u2019s the third highest priced golfer, and we haven\u2019t seen him since the Ryder Cup and there\u2019s just a lot of drama with him right now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>LIV rumors, slow play frustration, him bitching about money at the Ryder Cup while the US team was getting their heads stomped in\u2026I just don\u2019t know where his confidence level is at. He\u2019s finished 4th, 14th, 4th, and 16th in his 4 times playing here, I\u2019ll pass on him this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Sentry: DraftKings Darlings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cameron Davis $7100<\/strong>  -In a tournament with no cut, and on a course that rewards a hot putter, I\u2019ll take Cameron Davis who is +1.33 strokes gained putting over the last 3 months. He finished 10th here 2 years ago, so I\u2019ll take the high risk-high reward Davis at a low price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Eric Cole $7400<\/strong> - He was the Draftkings Darling MVP in 2023, and here we are again with a great price on him. He has the 17th best total strokes gained in this field the last 6 months, and I love how his putting has gotten better. Let\u2019s keep riding Eric Cole in DFS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sungjae Im $8100<\/strong> - Seems to be underpriced as he\u2019s finished 5th, 8th and 13th the last three years here, and he\u2019s 15th in total strokes gained the last 6 months. Big upside on him at $8100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Final Lineup: Cameron Davis, Eric Cole, Sunjae Im, Cameron Young, Collin Morikawa, Xander Schauffele<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Sentry: Additional Betting Notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>-Ignore the WD from Schauffele last year. He had a back injury pop up, and he finished 12th, 5th, 2nd, 1st the previous 4 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>-Matsuyama was really struggling with his neck issue at the end of the season, and he\u2019s finished 21st, 13th, and 41st the last three years here. He has the 13th worst total strokes gained in this field the last 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>-Wyndham Clark and Brian Harman definitely had hangovers after their major wins this year, but Clarks stats over the last 6 months are abysmal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>+0.33 total strokes gained, putting was bad, approaches were worst, and he was putting up similar numbers this time last year. He caught fire over a 9 tournament stretch last season, but outside of those he wasn\u2019t good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"amazing-offer-from-expert-nfl-handicappers\"><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>**************************************************<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Looking for more free sports picks and sports betting tips?<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n<ul>\n\n\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Make sure to bookmark all the above!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25429","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25429"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25429\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25431,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25429\/revisions\/25431"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5627"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25429"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25429"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25429"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
