Adam Kaufman:
Who is going to take the RBC Canadian Open?
Jason Sobel:
For me, Adam, this is not a week where I say, “there’s one guy I really like and I’m putting my money on him and he’s my favorite outright”—what I want to do is sort of take up a little collection. I want to bet a few different guys at bigger numbers. Sebastian Munoz is a guy that I like, Brendon Todd, C.T. Pan, maybe Aaron Rai. And then I’ll go my favorite outright play—and again, it doesn’t necessarily mean I think he’s going to win, I just want to have some investment in Justin Rose. I just think 80 to 1 is way too big of a number for a guy who knows how to win, and again, we talked about Rory McIlroy, maybe a little karma play this week—Justin Rose is a guy that a lot of people thought would jump ship, maybe he gets a little reward for not only staying on the PGA TOUR but playing an event opposite the first LIV event this week.
Geoff Ulrich:
I don’t mind that Justin Rose call at all—definitely his odds stick out. I’m going to go a little bit chalky just with my pure pick to win. I mean, guys down on the board you could certainly look to like Stephan Jaeger, David Lipsky, a couple of long shots I’ll be on—but I’m going to go with Matthew Fitzpatrick. I just feel like this player is too good, playing too consistently, and really all facets of the game to not pick up a win. And I think him coming off the missed cut—and don’t forget, in 2019, Rory came off a missed cut in Memorial and then won here on another shorter track. I think Matthew Fitzpatrick could replicate that feat, so I’m going to make him my pick this week.
Jason’s Pick: Justin Rose (+8000; $8,800)
Geoff’s Pick: Matthew Fitzpatrick (+1600; $9,900)
