BEST BET
BRYSON DECHAMBEAU
No player this week comes close to profiling as beautifully as Bryson DeChambeau.
He leads the LIV circuit in Strokes Gained: Off The Tee while he ranks third in Birdies, fourth in Non-Fair Scoring and sixth in Long Approaches.
Won in Korea and has been in the mix in six of the last seven LIV events.
Was also super charging home for T-10 in The Open.
BEST VALUE
DAVID PUIG
Spaniard David Puig has as good a profile as anyone this week.
He leads LIV in Long Approaches while he ranks second in Birdies, third in Non-Fairway Scoring and fifth in Strokes Gained: Off The Tee.
Finished T-11 here last year.
SEASTIAN MUNOZ
Sebastian Munoz has been around the Top 10 in most LIV events this year and profiles nicely again.
He leads LIV in short approaches while he ranks second in Non-Fairway Scoring as well as ninth in Strokes Gained: Off The Tee and in Long Approaches.
BEST ROUGHIES
TOM MCKIBBIN
Tom McKibbin failed to make the cut at his home country Open Championship but was in nice form prior with Top 5 finishes in Dallas and Andalucia.
Ranks fourth in Strokes Gained: Off The Tee, fifth in Non-Fairway Scoring and eighth in Proximity.
Should be a big player.
DEAN BURMESTER
South African whose form has been mixed but he did make the cut at the Open Championship and profiles nicely here though.
Ranks fourth in short approaches, sixth in birdies, seventh in proximity and long approaches and tenth in strokes gained: off the tee.
