THE PLAY: Keegan Bradley Top 30 (+160)

Keegan is the definition of a grinding player on the PGA Tour that has shown growth in his game since the announcement of Bethpage hosting the Ryder Cup. While he is not going to lead the field in any category, he stays away from trouble and leaves himself birdie opportunities. Keegan can get “off the rails” with his putter but can still put-up solid finishes as he lost close to 7 strokes on the green to the field in his last 2 starts but was still able to put up a T18 & T30 finish in those. He does not need to completely turn his putting game around; he plays well when he can land even on strokes gained/lost on the greens. Even with Keegan lacking distance off the tee, he shines on courses that demand a solid long iron play which he is going to face early and often this week.

Consultant Bio

Working at a country club a mile east of Del Mar Racetrack, Sean was introduced to horse racing and his passion for the sport took off. The puzzle of going through past performances and replays appealed to Sean and spent his time after work listening to respected handicappers to learn as much as he could. In his first season playing the NHC Tour, he qualified for the Championship by placing 2nd in the LRF Cares contest after turning his initial $250 bankroll into $3,640.40. In this year's Xpressbet Kentucky Derby contest, Sean finished 6th by flipping the $2,000 bankroll into $15,681.85 while also taking home a 2024 Pegasus World Cup Betting Challenge entry valued at $6,000.
