Im sorry I dont have time for a full preview this week but finally have a chance of a holiday.

Sycamore Hills is a Jack Nicklaus designed course so I have tried to focus on players who typically perform well on other Nicklaus courses. Here we have a Par 72, 7,275 yard track with rolling hills and a course which makes use of the abundance of trees and natural river and waters that ruun through it so a premium will be placed on GIR. It is also worth noting that last year the players who took the step down from the PGA seemed to fare better here than those on the Web.com.

My picks are as follows:

Austin Cook - 1pt e/w @ 25/1 -Fantastic talent I am surprised to see at 25s. Had two top 10s in July on the PGA Tour amongst some world class company. A real star who tied 7th on the Nicklaus designed Glen Abbey (Canadian Open).

Tom Hoge - 0.5pts e/w @ 40/1 - A player with decent form on Nicklaus designs this year on the PGA, 5th Canadian Open and 10th Barracuda. He has played here twice before and most recently opened with a round of 65.

Derek Fathauer - 0.25 e/w @ 70/1 - A player who has thrived on Nicklaus courses in the past and produced his best on the PGA on his designs. He was 9th here last year and 7th on the Ohio State GC at the back end of 2014. 

Total Staked -  3.5pts
