Maverick McNealy and Wyndham Clark are also popular picks, listed at +2000 and +2500, respectively. Additionally, keep an eye on Max Greyserman, holding strong at +2800.
Spotlight on Emiliano Grillo
One player to watch will undoubtedly be Emiliano Grillo. Although he had a hiccup with a missed cut at the recent Barracuda Championship, prior performances at TPC Twin Cities are noteworthy. He’s finished in the top 10 multiple times, including T10, T3, and T2 in recent tournaments held at this venue. Grillo also shines in key areas, ranking fifth in Strokes Gained: Ball-Striking, fourth in Tee-to-Green, and third in Total Strokes Gained over the last 24 rounds. His impressive history at the 3M Open makes him a solid contender.
Rico Hoey: A Bomber with a Putting Blues
Don’t overlook Rico Hoey, who is recognized for his remarkable ball-striking ability. However, his putting has let him down lately, ranking 147th out of 148 in Strokes Gained: Putting.

This course has seen an average winning score of just under 19 under par in previous events, which sets the stage for some incredible golf this year.
Weather and Performance Predictions
Weather can be unpredictable, and this year’s tournament is poised to have varied conditions, including a forecast of rain. Players will need to stay sharp to adapt to whatever Mother Nature throws their way. With so much at stake, many golfers are striving to boost their FedEx Cup standings as the playoffs loom on the horizon.
