Course Preview: Pebble Beach Golf Links, Monterey Peninsula, and Spyglass Hill

For the third week in a row, this week’s event will be played over multiple courses with Pebble Beach being played Thursday and Sunday. All three are short relative to the rest of the Tour coming in right around the 7,000-yard mark. 

Pebble Beach offers some of the smallest greens on Tour, and so an emphasis on approach shots will be a key for success. Monterey Peninsula is considered the easiest of the bunch, with four reachable Par-5s.

As for Spyglass Hill, it’s will likely prove the most challenging of the bunch, with five holes right along the coastline and wind being a major factor.

Outright Picks

Jason Day (+2000) (Bet $100 to win $2000)

One of the best Poa putters on Tour, Day has come out of nowhere as of late and now comes to an event he has excelled in. In his last seven starts here, he’s made the cut in each one and hasn’t finished below T11.

Look at performances at short courses and with high wind volatility, Day ranks inside the top-30 in both, with his past success here playing a big part of that ranking. He’s also one of just seven players in the field above the Tour average in strokes gained on Poa surfaces.

Add in a T3 last week at the Farmers Insurance Open, and I like for this rejuvenated veteran to be in contention for his first win since 2018.

Maverick McNealy (+2500) (Bet $100 to win $2500)

There are not too many guys left that feel as close to their first PGA Tour win as Maverick. In his eight events to start the 2021-22 season, McNealy has made the cut in seven and finished T30 or higher in all but two. 

He comes into this event at the top of the field for SG: Putting on Poa with +.7, well above the field average. Having played this event in each of the past two seasons, McNealy has finishes of 5th and 2nd, and I think we see him right back in position to get it done again this year.
