Bet on the Travelers Championship
Branden Grace is coming off a great showing at the PGA Championship and I think he can build off of it this weekend. He already has two wins this year and a total of eight top-10 finishes. Grace should be a top contender this week with a weak field coming off the final major.
Zach Johnson has 22/1 odds to win this golf tournament. With the field not being so cut-throat, we think he has a chance to make a strong run at the win. He has made the cut in nine straight tournaments, including four top-20 showings in his last five tournaments. He has yet to win this year, but finished sixth at this tournament a year ago.
Padraig Harrington is listed with 66/1 odds to win this week. He hasn’t made a great splash in the golf world for a while, but he is seeing a nice run lately. He has made the cut in five straight, including a top-10 finish. He was 13th at last week’s PGA Championship and should be able to build on that. He is a long shot, but worth some considering if you are looking for a big payout.
