🔑 Key Points

📌 Signature Event Critique: Will calls for expanding signature fields from 70 to 120 players and reinstating Friday cuts for more competitive drama.

📌 Course Layout: Wissahickon is 7,100 yards, par 70, featuring 118 bunkers and nine short par 4s—precision over power is key.

📌 Scheffler Dominance: Scotty Scheffler’s 31-under win at the Nelson set a tournament and PGA scoring record, gaining over 23 strokes tee-to-green.

📌 McIlroy Watch: Skipping McIlroy at +550 due to low odds and inconsistent tee shots, despite favorable soft course conditions.

📌 Morikawa Troubles: Out on Morikawa due to poor putting, short game struggles, and recent lack of clutch scoring.

📌 Oberg Analysis: At 18-1, the Swede shows promise on bentgrass but lacks elite approach metrics, especially under 100 yards.

📌 Thomas & Cantlay Caution: JT’s poor bentgrass record and Cantlay’s short game woes raise red flags, though both have strong wedge and tee stats.

📌 Top Picks: Jordan Spieth (35-1), Sam Stevens (125-1), and Michael Thorbjornsen (165-1) backed for outrights based on recent form and course fit.

📌 Sleeper Pick: Eric Cole to top 20 at +250 based on sharp iron play, bentgrass prowess, and recent accuracy uptick.

📌 Best Bet: Andrew Novak to top 20 at +160—praised for wedge play and strong putting on bentgrass greens.
