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 over the last few years. 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.

Spencer Levin - 0.5pts e/w @ 33/1 - A man who usually plys his trade on the PGA Tour, Levin drops down this Major week and comes back to a course where he finished runner up in 2008. He hasnt had a great season on the main tour this year so far but his last two performances have yielded mid range finishes as opposed to the MCs he has mainly recorded previously. He is weel known for being an accurate player and sits 22nd on the PGA for Driving Accuracy.

Keith Mitchell - 0.5pts e/w @ 35/1 - An exciting young player who has performed not only on the Web.com but on the PGA too. He was 23rd here last year, carding three rounds in the mid 60s before a poor final round. With a little more experience behind him now, he could push on. He is 6th in Birdie or Better Leaders on Par 5s, 45th in GIR and 2nd in Biride Average.

Andrew Yun - 0.5pts e/w @ 50/1- Four top 10s (three of which were top 5s) this season tempts me to back this 26 year old. He is 26th in GIR, 57th in Driving Accuracy and 26th in Par 5 Birdie or Better %. He was 19th here back in 2015 with three rounds in the 60s so has the game to play here.
