Air Capital Classic

The Air Capital Classic will be played on the North Course, a Par 71 track measuring 6,913 yards and where water comes into play on 11 of the 18 holes.

It is clear that being a short course and playing host to so much water and numerous bunkers that protect the greens and fairways, accuracy will be the key attribute over power this week. It will be imperative to look for those players who rank highly in Driving Accuracy but more importantly GIR as attacking this course and making birdies is the way to win here.

Be sure to look for someone who plays the par 5 holes well as two of the holes at Crestview were among the four easiest on tour last year. It is also worth noting that Crestview is known for the wind getting up and all of the par 3 holes play into the predominant south wind so a player who is a wind specialist will be at an advantage.

 

My picks are as follows:

 

Ryan Armour - 1pt e/w @ 50/1 - I was a little surprised by Armour's price this week. As highlighted on the PGA website, he is a local, short but accurate hitter and has a raft of good finishes this year including a win in Panama. Add to the mix his 5th place here in 2014 and I'm very happy with 50/1.

JJ Spaun - 0.25pts e/w @ 60/1 -  His game should fit the courseas he is accurate and straight. Comes here after a missed cut but has had a good season so far with three top 10s. 

Albin Choi - 0.25pts e/w @ 100/1 - This course should fit his game as he ranks 14th in TDriving and 15th in GIR. He has played here before, missing the cut but still carding a first round of 65. Comes here on the back on two MCs but previously recorded three back to back top 10s. 

 

Total Staked - 3pts
