00:00I'm going to go back to Brooks this week and try to get him through the winner's circle.

00:04What about you, Brady?

00:05Who do you like?

00:06Well, I started with another very big hitter who has done well as of late, and that's Bryson

00:11DeChambeau.

00:12I took DeChambeau at 9-1.

00:14I also picked out some correlated courses to Trump Doral, Harding Park, where they had

00:19the 2020 PGA Championship that Colin Murakawa won, and then Chapultepec, where they used

00:25to play the WGC Mexico for about four years.

00:29Those courses do set up similarly to Trump Doral, and DeChambeau was fourth at Harding

00:35Park in 2020.

00:37He was runner-up in 2020 at the WGC Mexico at Chapultepec.

00:42He is third on the live circuit in driving distance and seventh in accuracy.

00:48Seventh at Doral last year, Doral Miami last year.

00:51Sixth at Riyadh to start the year, and then tenth a couple weeks ago in Singapore.

00:57So I like DeChambeau at 9-1 as one of the short price guys.

01:01Sergio Garcia, got a win with him a few weeks ago in Hong Kong.

01:05I'm going to go back to the well with Sergio.

01:07You could argue he's playing better than anybody else on the live tour right now.

01:11Took him at 16-1.

01:13I don't think he's an awful play at 125-1 to win the Masters.

01:17Might do that again the way he's going right now.

01:20But number one in driving accuracy on the live, eighth in greens and regulation, tenth

01:25in birdies, fourth in scrambling.

01:27He was a monster at Chapultepec back at those WGC Mexicos.

01:31Lost in a playoff here last year to Dean Burmester.

01:35And then finally, my long shot, 30-1, another big hitter, Carlos Ortiz, 16th at Chapultepec

01:42in 2020, runner-up recently in Australia at Adelaide.

01:46And just a couple weeks ago, won the international series in Macau to earn himself a spot in

01:52the British Open.

01:53So a victory, gets himself a spot in the Open, good form right now, 17th on live in driving

01:59distance, 10th in birdies.

02:02You know, it's funny, Brady, because I saw Sergio a couple weeks ago in the 170-180s

02:09for the Masters.

02:10Wow.

02:11And I was thinking about it.

02:12I'm going, you know, he's played real good golf the last calendar year.

02:15We hit him last year in Spain, we hit him a couple weeks ago.

02:18Yeah, yeah.

02:19You know, we've been good with Sergio here.

02:21Do you think he'll be in the mix next week?

02:24He's won there.

02:25Guys that have won there know that place so well.

02:29Do you think Sergio will be around?

02:31I think it's the best golf we've seen him play in at least half a dozen years or more.

02:37The problem with Sergio at the Masters, I think it was 2017 that he won.

02:42Ever since then, he has missed the cut every year, except for once.

02:47And I think he finished 25th or something like that.

02:50It wasn't spectacular.

02:52So he's missed the cut like six, seven times in the last eight years or so.

02:58But boy, he's playing good right now.

02:59You just wonder, is he going to be able to get that monkey off his back where he can

03:03finally make a cut again, let alone win?

03:06It's hard.

03:07You can't argue the form.

03:08He's playing as well as anybody in the world.
