Waste Management Phoenix Open Favorite Picks
Scottie Scheffler: With odds of +280, Scheffler is the clear favorite in this tournament. He has a remarkable track record at TPC Scottsdale, finishing in the top three in his last four appearances. Scheffler’s exceptional driving and iron play consistently put him in a strong position for birdies, making him a formidable contender for the title.
Justin Thomas: Thomas has been in excellent form this season, with three made cuts out of three tournaments. His strong performance with the putter, ranking first in putting average and third in one-putt percentage, has contributed to his success. If Thomas can improve his driving accuracy, he has a real chance of challenging for the Waste Management Phoenix Open title.
Sepp Straka: The surprise of the season so far, Straka sits at the top of the FedEx Cup standings and recently secured a victory at the American Express. His consistent performance in strokes gained and high percentage of fairways hit make him a strong contender. Straka’s excellent form suggests he could be a force to be reckoned with at TPC Scottsdale.
Waste Management Phoenix Open Sleeper Picks
Byeong Hun An: Although Hun An’s recent performances have been decent, he will need to improve his approach shots and putting to contend for the title. However, his impressive scrambling skills and solid performance from the rough give him a chance to make an impact if he can find consistency off the tee.
Nick Taylor: As the defending champion, Taylor has proven his ability to excel at TPC Scottsdale. With a victory at the Sony Open and strong rankings in strokes gained: approach to green and driving accuracy, Taylor has the potential to make a deep run in the tournament and potentially defend his title.
Waste Management Phoenix Open Prediction & Pick
With Scottie Scheffler’s dominant form and remarkable history at TPC Scottsdale, he is the clear favorite to win the Waste Management Phoenix Open. It would be unwise to bet against him. Therefore, my prediction is that Scottie Scheffler will emerge as the champion of this exciting tournament.
