The PGA Tour now moves from the island of Hawaii to the mainland of the United States. Here are the top three golfers we like the most at the 2003 American Express in La Quinta, California.
1) Jon Rahm
One of the three golfers we need to choose this week is the one with the hot clubs. Jon Rahm was simply spectacular two weeks ago at the Tournament of Champions in Maui. The native of Barrika, Spain shot a four-round score of -27 to beat Collin Morikawa of the United States by two strokes.
Jon Rahm is $7.50 to win the 2023 American Express. [bet-au-1]
2) Scottie Scheffler
We go from the hottest player in 2023, to the best golfer in the first four months of 2022. Scottie Scheffler of Ridgewood, New Jersey won four tournaments last year by April. He won the Waste Management Phoenix Open, the Arnold Palmer Invitational, the World Matchplay Championships, and the Masters. For a period of time in 2022, Scheffler, a native of Ridgewood, New Jersey was number one in the world, but he has since been passed by Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy.
Scottie Scheffler is $10.00 to win the 2023 American Express. [bet-au-1]
3) Patrick Cantlay
The native of Long Beach, California is looking for his second PGA win in the state of California after winning the 2020 Zozo Championship in Sherwood by a stroke over Rahm and Justin Thomas. It should be noted that Scheffler, Rahm and Cantlay are all ranked in the top five in the world at the moment. Scheffler is second, Rahm is fourth, and Cantlay is fifth.
Patrick Cantlay is $13.00 to win the 2023 American Express. [bet-au-1]
