Sanderson Farms Championship - Recap
What a roller coaster that was! After the first round, we were looking pretty good. After the second round, it didn’t seem that we would cash any bets. After the third round, we had one guy in position but the rest were a mess. After the final round, we had a 19% ROI ending up with our 50-1 shot coming in 2 shots back for solo 4th.
As you can see above, September was not a good month, but these early tournaments can be very hit and miss….I would really like to hit a winner as I think it will pay off nicely! I am thrilled with the T10 and T20 results this week, though the underperformance of the Head-to-heads is concerning a bit in the weaker field events so something to keep an eye on.

Shriners Children’s Open
Make sure you have your fez ready as the PGA tour heads to Las Vegas, Nevada to visit TPC at Summerlin for the Shriners Children’s Open. This course plays to a par 71 over a distance of ~7,250 yards. The winners of this tournament tend to be those who shoot in the low -20s so do not be surprised by guys going super low this week.
Last year, Sung-Jae Im won this tournament with a tournament record -24 (tying Webb Simpson and Ryan Moore’s record). This field is actually a bit stronger than last week and I expect we slowly but surely see some of these fields getting a little deeper as we move through the fall campaign, especially when we hit the Hero in the Bahamas where the initial field appears to include 17 of the top 21 in the world golf rankings.
I am not seeing a TON of value in this week’s card so going to keep it light (about 7u of risk):

Aaron Wise +2200
