The PGA Tour moves to West Virginia for the Greenbrier Classic. This event is held at the Old White TPC at White Sulphur Springs. The field usually is not especially strong and this year continues that theme with many thoughts turning to St. Andrews. Obviously, this gives some of the Tours lesser lights the chance to shine and the Old White TPC usually throws up some long priced challengers. The course is a 7274 yard par 70 which finishes with a par 3 with a strange humped green. The course is not especially tough (Appleby scared 59 in 2010). Angel Cabrera is the defending champion.

Cameron Tringale | 2pt each way 66-1 | Ladbrokes |
Finishing position: MC Back Cameron Tringale Again |
Cameron is a real Horses for Courses player and he’s got a good Greenbrier record. He’s managed two T4s in four starts here. He rewarded our followers with a nice 45-1 2nd place in New Orleans a couple of months ago. He’s focussed on getting his first win under his belt and we think he’s got a chance this week. | |||
Carl Pettersson | 2pt each way 66-1 | Ladbrokes |
Finishing position: MC Back Carl Pettersson Again |
Carl has had a quiet season up until recently but is a good par 70 player. He’s got a solid record at The Greenbrier and will have drawn confidence from last week’s T5. We think the talented Swede could contend again this week on a course where he’s made the cut on every edition. | |||
Chris Stroud | 2pt each way 80-1 | SkyBet |
Finishing position: T37 Back Chris Stroud Again |
We’re fans of Chris Stroud and we don’t think win No. 1 is too far away. He’s worthy of consideration on any par 70 or 71 setup. His current form is reasonable as he had a good run at River Highlands last week. Both these are par 70s and we think he should go well again this week. He’s managed T9 and T18 here in the last four prior to last year’s T4 and we think he’s got a chance this week. |
All quoted odds correct as of 16:00 on 29/06/2015. These are obviously subject to fluctuation.
