For just the second time in its existence the Wells Fargo Championship will be played on a different course. The full-field of players assembles this week at TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm as the tournament takes a one year break from Quail Hollow, which is prepping for the Presidents Cup in a few months. Rory McIlroy has enjoyed plenty of success at this tournament returning... 

It’s a familiar tournament at an unfamiliar location this week with the Wells Fargo Championship being contested at TPC Potomac at Avenal Farm. Host of the event all but once since it joined the rotation in 2003, Quail Hollow Golf Club is being prepped for the Presidents Cup later in the year forcing the PGA to move closer to Washington D.C. It’s not a completely new course, though, since TPC Potomac last hosted an event in 2018 with Francesco Molinari topping the Quicken Loans National field. Molinari is well down the PGA odds board with the entire field behind betting favorite, defending champ and three-time winner Rory McIlroy. There’s never been a successful title defense at the WFC, but McIlroy is coming off a final-round record-tying 64 at the Masters and he’s finished among the top-10 in eight of his 10 WFC starts.

An official event on the PGA Tour for the first time, the Mexico Open at Vidanta has actually been around since the 1940’s playing as the country’s national open. There are several big-name players among the full-field ready to peg it up at Vidanta Vallarta, which is set to host this tournament for the next three years. The biggest name of the group is also the highest ranked player and the... 

While the event is no stranger to golfers, this is the first time the Mexico Open at Vidanta is sanctioned by the PGA Tour with a full allotment of FedExCup points and a hefty paycheck going to the winner. Played in some form as the country’s national championship since 1944, the tournament essentially takes the place of the WGC event that was played in Mexico for the past several years. A ... 

All season players go head to head in individual stroke play tournaments, but for one week the PGA Tour deviates from its normal format with the only full-field team event. This week 80 teams of two players hit TPC Louisiana for the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. Teams will play a best ball format on Thursday and Saturday with alternate shot used on Friday and... 

The only full-field team event on the PGA Tour takes place this week with the playing of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans.

The top 33 teams and ties will advance to the weeke... 

Following the first major of the season is a tough act, but the RBC Heritage has done a nice job over the years and is back at it with a strong field ready to navigate Harbour Town Golf Links this week. Several players make the short trek from Augusta to Hilton Head S.C., including Collin Morikawa, who emerged as the betting favorite in the outright market. In all, five of t... 

One thing we know for sure this week is that Scottie Scheffler won’t win. After capturing his first career major at the Masters for his fourth title in six starts, Scheffler is giving the rest of the PGA Tour a chance by sitting out the RBC Heritage. A stout field is on tap with several big names making the trip from Augusta to Hilton Head, S.C. this week. The top of the odd... 

When it comes to wagering on golf, sportsbooks pull out all the stops for the major championships. And the Masters is the biggest of them all with a Super Bowl-like prop bet menu. Making things even more special is the return of Tiger Woods to competitive play after nearly 17 months. It seems only fitting that Woods returns to Augusta National 25 years after the first of his five Mas... 

The last two editions were affected by COVID, but things appear to be back to normal as we get ready for the first major of the PGA Tour season. The 86th Masters is in its familiar spot in the rotation, fans will wander the property at Augusta National Golf Club and Tiger Woods will be included among the field. It’s the smallest major championship in terms of the number of golfers, however it doesn’t lack for excitement with the best players in the world going after one of the most iconic pieces of clothing in sports. Jon Rahm lost his spot as the world’s top-ranked player but he opened as the betting favorite in the outright market and in a number of tournament matchups. BookMaker.eu offers an abundance of matchup odds featuring the top players in the sport in the biggest event on Tour when you’re ready to place a wager. ... 

The biggest news coming out of Augusta this week is whether or not Tiger Woods will tee it up in the first major championship of the season. While he has yet to commit either way as of this writing, the Big Cat is included in the field and listed on the odds board. Woods hasn’t played an official PGA Tour event since being involved in a car accident over a year ago and if he does play how competitive will he be? The majors bring out the best golfers in the world so there won’t be a shortage of t... 

There is one final PGA Tour stop before the first major of the season and that takes place this week in San Antonio at the Valero Texas Open.

Other prominent players in th...

With 64 of the top ranked players in the world competing in Texas, the PGA Tour offers up an alternate field event in the Dominican Republic with this week’s Corales Puntacana Championship.

With the Florida swing over, the PGA Tour heads to Texas for the WGC Dell Technologies Match Play at Austin Country Club. This is the only tournament that deviates from traditional stroke-play and lasts five days instead of four. The field of 64 players is divided into 16 groups of four with round-robin play over the first three days starting o... 

With the Florida Swing completed the PGA Tour packs its bags for Texas where this week the field will compete in the only match-play event on the schedule, the prestigious WGC Dell Technologies Match Play. The exclusive field of top ranked players is divided into 16 groups of four going against each other over the first three days in a round-robin, match-play format starting Wednesday. The winner from each group advances to the elimination stage over the weekend. The event is played at the 7,108-yard, par-71 Austin Country Club. Bryson DeChambeau is scheduled to make his first appearance on Tour since he missed the cut at the Farmers Insurance Open in late January. Defending champ Billy Horschel is joined by recent match-play winners Kevin Kisner, Bubba Watson and Dustin Johnson.

The PGA Tour’s stay in Florida comes to an end with this week’s playing of the Valspar Championship. Those who played last week have a shorter turnaround than usual thanks to the delayed finish at THE PLAERS, but at least it’s a short trip across the state to Palm Harbor. And stuck between two higher profile non-majors the field is thinned out a bit. Still some bi... 

The time between tournaments is short to begin with, but those making the trip to Palm Harbor, Fla. for this week’s Valspar Championship have less time after the delayed PLAYERS Championship finished on Monday. The PGA Tour drops the curtain on the Florida Swing with five of the top-10 players in the world scheduled to peg it up at the Copperhead Course at Innisbr... 

Known by many as the PGA Tour’s fifth major, THE PLAYERS Championship is certainly one of the biggest events on the schedule. The tournament always attracts the world’s best golfers thanks to its enormous prize pool with the winner taking home $3.6 million. The top 36 players at the end of four rounds pocket six-figures, so there’s plenty of incentive. And the... 

While it’s not officially in the category, THE PLAYERS Championship has often been referred to as the PGA Tour’s fifth major. The prize money ranks among the best on Tour and the prestige with winning the event is up there with the marquee tournaments of the season. A hefty purse tends to bring out the sport’s biggest names and 48 of the world’s top 50 players are slated to peg it up at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach this week as the Tour continues its swing through the Sunshine State. Jon Rahm, the world’s No. 1 ranked player, is listed as a tri-favorite along with No. 2 Collin Morikawa and defending champion Justin Thomas. I guess someone had to be at the top of the list and you can take your pick with the best players on Tour assembled.

The swing through the Sunshine State continues this week when the PGA Tour heads to Orlando for the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

Held as an alternate field event alongside the Arnold Palmer Invitational, the Puerto Rico Open didn’t attract the biggest names in the golfing community. But there are FedExCup points, a nice payout to the winner and, of course, a PGA Tour title at stake. A number of past PGA Tour winners, rising young stars looking for their first Tour victory, and the top performers from the Ko... 

After a run of tournaments out west, the PGA Tour packs its bags for the Sunshine State with this week’s Honda Classic kicking off the Florida Swing. Most of the world’s top ranked players are sitting this one out opening the door for golfers further down the rankings to collect valuable FedExCup points. It also sets up some interesting tournament matchups. A winner two years ago on the Champion Course at PGA National, Sungjae Im opened as the betting favorite with a short yet impressive history on this track. Brooks Koepka makes a homecoming of sorts and stands out as one of the bigger names in the field. Matt Jones looks to defend the title he won by a record-tying five shots last year. He’s positioned further down the odds board in the outright market and has plus odds in a few of his matchups.
