Outright plays (2 units):
Larry Nelson to win 17/1 e.w. @ SIA
After securing three 2nd place finishes earlier in the season, Nelson appears to be back in form again with top-10 finishes in each of his last three events. Many players will be using this event as preparation for next week's U.S. Senior Open, but having won this title in 2000 and 2001, winning this event will mean more to him than most and he should play hard this week.
Bob Gilder to win 33/1 e.w. @ Stan James
Considering there is no Irwin or Watson in the field, this is rather a large price for a player who has won once this season, four times last season and is prone to playing very well in bursts. He had such a spell in April/May and looks set to start another with a top-10 finish in the Senior PGA Championship last time out. With two decent finishes on this course as well, there is no obvious reason why he should be priced so high.
Doug Tewell to finish in the top-four 10/1 @ Centrebet
Tewell does not play well in bursts to the same degree and has struggled to return to his old form since August last year. He has improved slowly each week and now has two top-5 finishes in his last three events. Still some way to go to attain the form that netted six titles in the previous three seasons, but he is competitive and should contend again this week. Playing safe with the place-only wager though as he could be a little rusty in terms of leading events.
