⛳ Charles Schwab Challenge — Colonial CC, Fort Worth TX (May 28-31)

Colonial Country Club is one of the PGA Tour’s most demanding tests. Tight, tree-lined fairways reward precision over power, and the small, firm greens put approach play front and centre. Our analysis points to players with elite iron games and solid putting — and we’ve landed on five plays this week.

—

**⭐ Pick of the Day: Ludvig Åberg — 8/1 each way (6 places, 1/5 odds)**

*1pt each way + 1pt win*

Åberg is the standout of the week. His approach play is elite, his composure under pressure has been evident all season, and Colonial suits his game profile perfectly. The extra win stake reflects how strongly the model rates him. At 8/1 with 6 places available, this is the anchor of the card.

—

**Justin Thomas — 18/1 each way (6 places, 1/5 odds)**

*1pt each way*

JT is a former winner at Colonial and knows this course inside out. Experience around tight, demanding tracks counts here, and his iron play remains one of the best on tour. 18/1 looks fair for a player with this level of pedigree at this venue.

—

**J.J. Spaun — 28/1 each way (6 places, 1/5 odds)**

*1pt each way*

Spaun is one of the more underrated ball-strikers on tour and has been consistent this season. The model has him well-positioned at this course profile, and 28/1 represents good each-way value with 6 places on offer.

—

**Russell Henley — 33/1 each way, First Round Leader (6 places, 1/5 odds)**

*1pt each way — FRL market*

The First Round Leader play of the week. Henley is a steady, accurate ball-striker who starts tournaments well. The FRL market often delivers more value than the outright, and 33/1 in this field is generous.

—

**🎲 Dark Horse Alert: Max Greyserman — 33/1 each way (10 places, 1/5 odds)**

*1pt each way*

Greyserman is this week’s big-price play. Strong approach stats — the most important metric at Colonial — and a game that suits tight, technical courses. 10 places at 33/1 is exceptional each-way coverage. The model has him around 13.5% chance of a top-10 finish. At those odds, this is the value play of the week.

—

**⚡ Glory Double: Russell Henley FRL + Russell Henley Outright — 389/1 (Spreadex / SportingIndex)**

*0.25pt each way*

A small interest in the Henley double — FRL combined with him going all the way. At 389/1 this is pure upside. Available as a combination at Spreadex and SportingIndex.

—

🏔️ Austrian Alpine Open — Kitzbühel (May 28-31) — BONUS DP WORLD TOUR PICKS

This week’s DP World Tour event takes place in the stunning Austrian Alps. Two plays from a competitive field.

—

**Casey Jarvis — 18/1 each way (6 places, 1/5 odds)**

*1pt each way*

The South African youngster has a sharp iron game that suits this course profile. His approach stats are among the best in the DP World Tour field and 6 places at 18/1 gives strong each-way coverage. A player whose best golf is very much still ahead of him.

—

**🎲 Dark Horse Alert: Marcel Siem — 125/1 each way (10 places, 1/5 odds)**

*0.5pt each way*

The big-price play of the week. An experienced German campaigner competing on home turf in the Alps — local knowledge and course feel can count for a lot in events like this. 10 places at 125/1 is a huge each-way bet at a tiny stake. The upside is enormous for a half-point investment.

—

🏌️‍♀️ ShopRite LPGA Classic — Seaview, New Jersey (May 29-31) — BONUS LPGA PICKS

A 54-hole event on the Bay Course at Seaview — a flat, links-influenced layout that rewards consistency and accuracy. Two picks from the women’s game this week.

—

**Charley Hull — 12/1 each way (6 places, 1/5 odds)**

*1pt each way*

World No. 7 and the highest-ranked player in the field this week. Hull is a fan favourite and a genuine contender wherever she tees it up. Consistent, composed and perfectly capable of dominating a 54-hole event. Top of the market for a reason — and 12/1 looks fair for a player of her quality in this field.

—

**🎲 Dark Horse Alert: Robyn Choi — 60/1 each way (6 places, 1/5 odds)**

*1pt each way*

The Australian has been quietly posting consistent top-20 finishes on tour. 6 places at 60/1 is where the value is — her place odds at 1/5 work out at 12/1, which looks generous for a player with her level of consistency. One of the better each-way prices on the board this week.

CJ Cup Byron Nelson — Our Selections for the PGA Tour’s TPC Craig Ranch

Featured

The PGA Tour’s CJ Cup Byron Nelson gets underway Thursday at TPC Craig Ranch, and our AI-powered analysis has identified two outright plays and a first round leader pick worth serious consideration.

Subscribe to the Substack for every selection from the Golf AI tool…

TPC Craig Ranch consistently rewards accuracy over raw distance — five years of data point firmly in one direction. Approach play and driving accuracy are the metrics that matter here, not how far you hit it. Winning scores are deep — mid-to-high twenties under par — so we need players who can sustain scoring across four rounds.

Si Woo Kim — 14/1 EW, 5 places (1pt each way, 2 total) The standout value in the field beyond the obvious favourite. Si Woo’s strokes gained profile is second only to Scheffler in this entire field — his approach play and ball-striking metrics are perfectly aligned with what TPC Craig Ranch demands. He’s a previous winner at this venue and he draws the early wave on Thursday, the ideal conditions in Texas. At 14/1 with five places on offer this is our headline selection.

Jordan Spieth — 16/1 EW, 5 places (1pt each way, 2 total) A Texas native in his home state, and the data backs up the intuition. Strong approach play, balanced strokes gained profile, and a proven record in Texas events across his career. Spieth’s ceiling when his short game clicks is as high as anyone in this field. Five places at 16/1 gives excellent each-way coverage. Worth ensuring the best available price as this one may shorten.

Keith Mitchell FRL (First Round Leader) — 45/1 EW, 6 places (1pt each way, 2 total) The first round leader pick is built around one key factor — Mitchell tees off at 07:11, one of the earliest slots in the entire field. In Texas in May, morning conditions are significantly calmer and cooler than the afternoon. His strokes gained profile fits — solid off the tee, strong iron play — and he’s a known fast starter who historically over-performs in opening rounds. Six places at 1/5 gives that extra safety net. The extra place is the reason to seek out the best terms on this one.

Glory Double — Mitchell FRL + Si Woo Kim (0.25pt each way, 0.5 total) For those interested in the combined selection, some platforms offer this as a linked double at around 503/1. Most providers no longer offer this market so availability is limited — worth checking before Thursday morning.
