Golf Picks Still In Play — Sunday Truist & Catalunya Update (Sunday, May 10 2026)

Featured

It’s been a tough week on the racing, but the golf could yet turn things around. Three selections are still live heading into Sunday’s final rounds, and at least two of them have genuine winning chances.

Nicolai Hojgaard — Truist Championship (50/1, 6 places) This was always a pick with upside and he’s delivered. Hojgaard is right in contention at the Truist Championship and at 50/1 an outright win would be a significant return. He’s playing with confidence and the closing holes suit his game. Still very much alive.

Cam Young — Truist Championship (7/1, 10 places) Young has been one of the standout performers this week and is near the top of the leaderboard. A strong closer with plenty of experience in Sunday pressure situations. Keep an eye on him through the back nine.

Oliver Lindell — Catalunya Championship, Barcelona (28/1, 8 places) Over on the DP World Tour, Lindell is in contention for a place finish at the Catalunya Championship. Down a touch in the rankings but playing well on a course that suits him. At 28/1 a place return would be very welcome.

Three darts still in the air — updates to follow as the rounds conclude.

Twister AI Golf Predictor: First Round Leader Picks Now Locked

Featured

The Twister AI Golf Predictor has now locked its first-round leader picks for this week.

After landing Cameron Young as both outright winner and first-round leader on the soft-launch card last week, we have taken the same approach this week: wait for the tee times, check the likely weather windows, then finalise the FRL selections.

The main focus is the Truist Championship, with two smaller bonus FRL plays added for the Estrella Damm Catalunya Championship in Barcelona.

Truist Championship FRL Picks

Rory McIlroy — 1pt each-way (14/1, 6 places)

Rory McIlroy is the first Truist first-round leader selection.

He was left off the main outright card because the outright price looked short, but the FRL market is different. For one round, Rory has an obvious chance.

He has a strong Quail Hollow profile, excellent course history and the type of power game that fits the course. His tee time also looks useful, with the model preferring his window once weather and draw were factored in.

Selection: Rory McIlroy — 1pt each-way FRL

Min Woo Lee — 1pt each-way (40/1, 5 places)

Min Woo Lee is the second Truist FRL pick.

The model likes his mix of course fit, scoring upside and tee-time position. He has the sort of explosive profile that can work well in a first-round leader market, where one hot round is enough.

Selection: Min Woo Lee — 1pt each-way FRL

Barcelona FRL Picks – DP World Tour Catalunya Championship

The two smaller Barcelona FRL plays are:

  • Jayden Schaper — 0.5pt each-way
  • Angel Ayora — 0.5pt each-way

Both are 33/1 each way for 6 places – they fit the model well and both get favourable early tee-time windows.

Tiny Glory Double

The small-stakes Twister AI Glory Double for this week is:

Rory McIlroy FRL + Xander Schauffele outright winner — 0.25pt each way (around 125/1)

This is just a fun side play, not part of the main staking plan.
