 What is up, everybody? Brandon Godola here with three of my favorite bets for this week's 3M Open over at Fandall Sportsbook. Starting off, I like Hideki Matsuyama to pick up a win. TPC Twin Cities is one of the more birdie friendly courses on the PGA Tour. The stats show that it also has some of the easier putting surfaces as well according to data golf course table numbers and that should really help Hideki who ranked 127th on tour this season in strokes game Hideki has played here in the past, finished 7th in 2019 in his lone start. That week he ranked 4th in strokes game approach. A stat that he leads the field in for the full season, love to see that. I could understand maybe being a little bit hesitant on Hideki, traveling back from Scotland after being a non-factor at the Open. There are some rumors around Hideki's golfing future so I could see their reason to step back a little bit. That said, he is one of the best values in my model in quite some time and for that reason I don't want to talk myself out of Hideki for this week. He should be the betting favorite according to my numbers and so I'm going to take advantage of that with Hideki for the week. Moving on, I like Chris Gauderup for the 3M Open which has served as a breakthrough or early career win spot for golfers so far. Matthew Wolfe, Michael Thompson, Cameron Champ are the three to hold the crown at TPC Twin Cities since its inception. That could be the case for Gauderup. He could be next up here. He has a top five already at the John Deere Classic from earlier in July. I feel not too much different than the one we have this week. Also T43 at the US Open, T35 at the Travelers as well. What's really standing out is that he's doing it with great iron play and that number stabilizes pretty quickly according to the research I've done. He's a good birdie maker and you'll need that this week. The winning scores at the 3M Open so far are then 15, 19, and 21 under. Finishing up, looking for a bounce back for Tom Hogi. If you look at the recent form, you're not really going to be jazzed about what you see from Tom Hogi. He has missed five straight cuts but that results based thinking is putting value on Hogi for the week. I like him as an outright yes but also top 10, top 20 action for the week. He is a 92nd percentile ball striker in the field over the past year even with recency factored in. He's more accurate than he is long off the tee which is key for this week. He need to be in scoring position off the tee. In total he's a dominant birdie maker. He's due for putting regression and it's just the chipping and the wedge play that's bogged him down recently and that's very flukey. That's actually more volatile than putting according to my research. So honestly, Hogi is lining up as an ideal candidate. For someone who's betting odds are just way too long due to how he is finished recently and again this finishes pretty flukey overall so Tom Hogi outright winner yes but also top 10, top 20 for this week. That'll do it for my favorite bets for the three I'm open. Best of luck this week. Let's hit a winner.
