The American Express betting tips: Top tip
Jason Kokrak (40/1 with bet365) is making his first start of the year after taking a lengthy break over the festive period.
He last competed at the WGC-HSBC Champions in November and finished inside the top 10 which was a big improvement on his first three starts of the season. This was more like the type of performance we have become accustomed to seeing from the American – having made the FedEx Playoffs he finished the season T12-T19-T9.
I expect him to carry that form forward and this is a location where he has had success in the past. A top-10 finish in 2018 and a top 20 last year stands him in good stead for another big week.
Last season he ranked second in driving distance on the PGA Tour and this could be an asset around the three layouts in play this week.
