While players and fans are preparing for masters, the PGA Tour remains in Texas after Houston’s Open to play Valero Texas Open.
TPC San Antonio is a par-72 of 7,494 yards and has Greens Bermudagrass. The main defense of the course is the weather. The course can play fairly hard depending on the conditions. If the wind remains sleeping, expect the winner to be in the 20 sous beach.
There are 150 golfers in the field this week. The field is strong with players who seek to come together for the masters. Some notable players on the field include Tommy Fleetwood, Patrick Cantlay, Ludvig Åberg, Hideki Matsuyama, Sam Burns, Max Homa and Daniel Berger.
Let’s take a look at key measurements on TPC San Antonio to determine which golfers have notes in each category.
The approach acquired by features is the best measure of the current form. With a lot of things on the line this week, golfers will try to hit a ticket for Augusta or end in great shape before the masters.
Approach acquired by blows by turn during the last 24 laps:
The blows that were made on the TEE are statistically more important at TPC San Antonio than most of the PGA Tour lessons. Bhatia ranked sixth as cerebral vascular accidents that succeeded last year. Hitting the long and right ball will be a major factor this week.
Blows have succeeded in the TEE per turn during the 24 gone rounds:
Players that work well in Texas generally play well at TPC San Antonio.
Brain vascular accidents in Texas per turn during the last 36 laps:
Although a hot putter is always difficult to predict, it is always important to take into account the POA Trivialis model in the Stat model this week.
Before the lines by putting Poa Trivialis during the last 36 laps:
TPC San Antonio will give players really difficult shots in green complexes. This statistic will incorporate players who excel in these situations.
Approach acquired by blows on courses that have “difficult” shots on the last 36 laps:
This season, I will generate a classification list of the best players cumulatively during comparable lessons. For TPC San Antonio, I use PGA National, Riviera, Colonial, Memorial Park, Innisbrook, TPC Summerlin, TPC Scottsdale, Bay Hill.
Comparable classification of course players:
Below, how compiled overall models using a combination of the five key statistical categories previously discussed: Strokes-Gained Approach (27%), Strokes-Gained Total in Texas (13%), Strokes-Gained Off the Tee (20%), Stroke-Gained Putting on (15%), Strokes-Gained Approach on THAT HAVE “Difficult” Approach Shots (15%) and comparable races (10%)
The choices of last week choices for Texas Children’s Houston Open:
Tony Finau (40-1): T32
Min woo lee (40-1): winner
Jason Day (40-1): T27
Wyndham Clark (80-1: T5
Max GREYSERMAN (75-1): MC
Davis Riley (190-1): T52
Emiliano Grillo (300-1): T47
Jordan Spieth + 2500 (Drabings))
I supported Jordan Spieth a few weeks ago at the Valspar championship and I see no reason not to return it to one of his favorite courses on tour.
At the Innisbrook Copperhead Course, the triple major champion was excellent with his irons, winning 7.76 strokes at the approach, which was third on the field. Spieth fought around green (73rd) and with the putter (49th), which, I believe, is an anomaly. Before the Valspar, he acquired brain vascular accidents around the green in four consecutive departures. Put was hot and cold this season, but the 31 -year -old has acquired brain vascular accidents in five of his last six trips to TPC San Antonio.
During its last 36 laps, Spieth ranks first in the total of strokes in Texas. I think he was very solid this year, but he is a different player from his original state. Spieth will be motivated and concentrated while he is preparing for one of his other favorite events on the calendar that takes place in an obscure course called Augusta National.
I have a intestinal sense Spieth will win this week, fueling the masters buzz to a fever field.
Keegan Bradley +2800 (ESPN Bet)
Keegan Bradley has an encouraging combination of the current form and the history of the course before Valero Texas Open this week. During his last 24 laps, the captain of the US Ryder Cup ranks 11th in the field in the approach of blows.
Bradley played TPC San Antonio six times in his career and ended in the top 25 in two of these occasions, including the T23 and T8 finishes during his last two trips (2021 and 2022). It has the precision to stay outside the troubles of the fairway and the long iron game to hit the Greens in regulation, which is one of the keys to success during the course.
Bradley won in Texas in 2011 (Byron Nelson) and can reach the top if difficult conditions present the weekend.
If woo kim +3500 (Drabings))
If Woo Kim took a bad start last week in Houston, but rebounded to shoot a 3-mine of 67 a turn 2. He missed the cup, but the ball striking on Friday was sufficient to repress my concerns concerning the general position of the week. Kim won 2.40 strokes on the green TEE field 2.
If Woo has three PGA Tour victories and they followed the finishes of MC, T35 and T25, so I don’t think it has to light the world on fire before a start to do it. The South Korean is a player who has proven that he could win on the PGA Tour and the course is suitable for his strength.
Kim has a T4 finish at TPC San Antonio in 2019 as well as a handful of other solid finishes of T22 (2017), T23 (2021) and T13 (2022). He ranked 13th in the field in total stars in Texas.
Kim can hit his ticket for Augusta National with a victory at the Valero Texas Open this week.
Bud Cauley +5000 (Drabings))
I did not expect to bet Bud Cauley to this type of price in 2025, but we are there. The 35 -year -old plays a fantastic golf course during his last departures with T6 finishes from players and T4 at the Valspar championship.
In his latest departure during Innisbrook Copperhead, Cauley was composed with his irons. He won 8.04 strokes on the approach, which ranked second on the field. The fact that Cauley was so well able to play the week after participating in Sawgrass tells me that its shape could be there to stay in the foreseeable future.
Cauley was very successful in Texas during his career. He finished T10 at the Valero Texas Open in 2017 and has four top 20 in his career at the Houston Open.
Cauley, which was formerly a much appreciated perspective before undergoing an important setback due to a serious car accident in June 2018, which left it as he described “lucky to be alive”. A victory this season would be an incredible story on the PGA Tour.
Charley Hoffman +9000 (ESPN Bet)
I watched Charley Hoffman to participate in the PGA Tour one last time in the next seasons before his 50th birthday. Its best opportunity year after year will most likely be at the Valero Texas Open.
Hoffman, otherwise known as “M. Valero, ”absolutely loves TPC San Antonio. He finished in the top 15 of the ranking eight times in his 15 departures during the course, which is remarkable. He won the event in 2016 and finished finalist in the consecutive years in 2019 and 2021 (the 2020 edition was a pandemic victim).
Hoffman was from top to bottom this season, but has shown that he was still able to have weeks of ceiling game when the course suits him.
I would not put him in front of Hoffman to run more in Valero.
Mac Meissner +12000 (Drabings))
Mac Meissner played his university golf course in SMU and has close links with the Golf du Texas. He is currently living in Dallas and was a triple all American for the Mustangs. During the 2020-21 season, Meissner established the SMU record with an average of the stroke of 70.44.
Meissner experienced a strong performance which allowed Ball in his last departure at the Valspar championship. He won 7.72 strokes on the approach, which ranked fourth in the field.
Last year, the 26 -year -old finished T10 at the Valero Texas Open. He also has additional solid finishes in the state of Texas, including a colonial T5 last season as a recruit.
Meissner seems rounded in shape at the right time to take advantage of a course for which he has adapted very well.
