The RSM Classic Matchup Picks

Ludvig Aberg is favored to win this week at The RSM Classic in Georgia. Aberg is ranked No. 5 in the world and he is the defending champion, but he hasn’t played in a while so it will be interesting to see how he does this week, especially since he had knee surgery in September. This will be the last tournament in the FedExCup Fall schedule. Aberg is listed as the favorite at Caesars at odds of +1100. He is the clear top choice, as second in the golf betting odds is Davis Thompson at odds of +2200. The FedExCup Fall schedule has been a struggle for us with the matchups, so we’ll be happy to get back to the real PGA Tour schedule in January. Let’s look at The RSM Classic matchup picks.

Reduced juice betting is one of the best ways for any sports bettor to save money and far too many people don’t take advantage of it. If you are not playing at a sportsbook that offers reduced juice betting then you are simply giving away money. Check out the latest RSM Classic matchup odds at Caesars.

Tournament Notes: Seaside is a par 70 with only two par 5 holes and it measures just 7,005 yards. The field will also play the Plantation course once and it is a par 72 that measures 7,060 yards. The temperatures will be cooler than normal this year so don’t expect to see 29-under win the tournament this time around.

Golf Matchup Picks

Davis Thompson +135 vs. Ludvig Aberg

I know that Aberg is the highest ranked player in the field and he is the defending champion but he had knee surgery in September and this is his first start since that surgery. I have to take the price on Thompson who is having a good season including a win at the John Deere Classic. I’ll go with Thompson in this PGA matchup.

Ben Griffin -120 vs. J.J. Spaun

Griffin played well in Bermuda with an 8^th place finish and he has played well in this event in the past with a tie for 8^th last season. I picked Griffin as one of the top contenders to win this week in the preview and I’ll lay the small price and take him in this PGA betting matchup.

Austin Eckroat -110 vs. Andrew Novak

It was just a couple of weeks ago when Eckroat won the World Wide Technology Championship. He has had a week off to get over the euphoria and get back into action. He tied for 8^th in this event a year ago. Novak finished second last week, but I think Eckroat is the better player and we get him at a short price in this golf matchup.

Harris English +100 vs. Matt Wallace

I don’t know what Wallace is doing in this event but I know why English is here. He will be playing this event for the 13^th time and his putting will be a big advantage for him this week. I’ll take him in this golf betting matchup against Wallace.

Mackenzie Hughes +105 vs. Maverick McNealy

I don’t know why McNealy is favored in this golf betting matchup. Hughes won this event in 2016 and he has two second place finishes. He tied the course record of 60 last year.  I think Hughes should be favored in this PGA betting matchup and we get him at plus money.Check out the latest RSM Classic matchup odds at Caesars.
