Caddie Tips for TPC

Caddie Quotes from Sawgrass.

We spoke with 3 different caddies this evening that were on the course today at TPC Sawgrass. We promised we'd make you aware of any news, so here ya go...

"Scoring should be low. Around the green is way easier than normal because of the softness and all the run off areas are pretty playable compared to last few years."

"The course is immaculate. Nothing is different than what I said on Sunday." - Rhymes with Haul Pesori

"I think there are going to be some low numbers and loads of birdies. I don't think the rough is too bad, and the greens are soft. I think someone shoots -8 on Thursday morning. That will be the easiest day. The fairways are soft. Bombs away..."

 

Our Final Thoughts.

We're still all in on the bombers. Not weighting course history as much given the difference in how this thing is playing. We're not weighing scrambling or chipping at all. Justin Thomas mentioned in his press conference yesterday how much easier it was to chip this year. We're still looking at guys that putt well on Bermuda, but other than that...bombers & ball strikers!

Ownership seems to be a little different than anticipated. Either everyone in the industry listened to our Tesori interview, or it just wasn't that hard to figure out how this thing would play. It appears that plenty of bombers are getting talked up, but ownership has definitely spread out given the soft pricing and stacked field. JT, Rose, Rickie, Brooks, & Rahm appear to be the lower owned studs at the top just for your information.

In terms of First Round Leader bets, you NEED to fire away at the Thursday early rounds, especially given the comment from our caddie friend. The wind will be a bit calmer in the morning and the green surfaces more receptive than in the afternoon. We also, per usual, love the long shots for FRL given that if the course is playing as easy as we think, then anyone on the tee sheet can go mental and fire -8. Here are a few we like over on
