Recap - Wells Fargo Championship
End of round 1: Not an amazing day, but very solid for our guys. We don’t have anyone at the top, but also none of our guys have put them out of contention on this difficult course. We have all to play for today and that is all we can ask.
End of round 2: Another up and down day. We lost Jason Day, but were able to cash a couple of matchups, which is always nice, and we have Sungjae and JT right near the top. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that we have a nice day today and are positioned for a fun Sunday.
Full Recap: Man that sucked. We were in decent shape after Friday only to see things slip away on Saturday and then Sunday we watch Thomas start hot but melt away and cost us his Top 10 and our Homa matchup. Really just a pretty lame week all around for us….if only I had included Clark outright with our T10 and T20. Oh well.
AT&T Byron Nelson
The PGA Tour leaves Charlotte and heads southwest to the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex suburb of McKinney, Texas to visit TPC Craig Ranch. This Tom Weiskopf-designed course plays to a par 711 across 7,468 yards, has bent grass greens, and hosts one of the two PGA Tour tournaments named after a retired professional golfer2.
Obviously, this tournament is being held the week before the PGA Championship so the field is not as deep, especially with Spieth dropping out, and it might include some guys who may not have all of their focus squarely on the task at hand.
The 2022 edition saw KH Lee (100-1 odds) defend his title and win his second PGA Tour event when he shot -26 and topped Jordan Spieth by 1 stroke. The 2021 edition saw KH Lee (-25) capture his first PGA Tour title at 150-1 odds when he topped Sam Burns by 3 strokes, and 2019 saw Kang Sun-hoon (-23) start the South Korean run at 125-1 odds when he beat Matt Every and Scott Piercy by 2 strokes3.
The event’s 72-hole-to-par record is -26 shot by KH Lee last year, while the scoring record is jointly held by Kang Sung-hoon, Aaron Wise, and Rory Sabatini at 261. KH Lee will attempt to become the 2nd man to three-peat the Byron Nelson after Tom Watson did it in 1978, 1979, and 1980.

I am taking a pass this week, but last week I did $45 worth of games and look what it returned!!!!
Good luck with all your action!
Edit Note - This was incorrectly stated as 72 in the original post.
The other is the API
The 2020 edition was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic
I am going to be targeting Tom Kim (I want over 28-1) and Scottie (over 10-1) for my parlays but honestly if you wanted to do a one-and-done with Scottie back when he was 5-1 I would not have told you not to.
I am doing 1u here, BUT if you want to be more conservative, I totally get going 0.5u given how he played last week
12pm ET Wednesday May 10 update - Hubbard as withdrawn so bet gets cancelled and if you already get it you will get your money back
