THE Sony Open is the second event of the calendar year on the PGA Tour – following Cameron Smith’s record-breaking score at the Sentry Tournament of Champions.
And Smith is the 9/1 favourite following his 34-under performance ahead of Hideki Matsuyama, Sung-Jae Im, and Webb Simpson – all at 14/1.
And while the heavyweights may have left Hawaii early there may be some value in Honolulu this week.
Kevin Na won here last year and is priced at 25/1 – alongside the likes of Abraham Ancer and Talor Gooch.
But Billy Horschel finished seventh last year with four rounds in the 60s and comes off the back of a T23 last week where he shot 17 under.
He also won the BMW PGA at Wentworth in September after missing out on the Ryder Cup.
At 40/1 he looks a good each way bet with Sky Bet paying eight places.
For longer odds Brandan Grace appeals at 80/1 while there is a deep field of 100/1+.
Lucas Glover is 150/1 or 10/1 for a top 10. He won the John Deere last year to get into the event last week, finishing T35 after a disappointing 74 in round 1 but ended up 10 under for the week.
SunSport tips
- Billy Horschel 40/1
- Brandan Grace 80/1
- Lucas Glover 150/1 or 10/1 top 10 (odds from Sky Bet)
