One and Done Selections - The RBC Canadian Open

In this feature, our golf staff of Joe Nicely, Spencer Aguiar, Andrew Putters, Josh Bennett, Byron Lindeque and our special guest will provide their weekly golf picks every Wednesday. The purpose of this article is to present you with alternative options to consider and hopefully make your selection a much easier process weekly. With that plan in mind, let's get started!

 

Joe Nicely - Justin Rose

Alternate - Tommy Fleetwood

In a week that feels full of uncertainty - both on the course and off - the veteran Englishman offers a nice steadying presence. His vast experience on all different types of courses means he should handle the "newness" of Oakdale without issue and it appears to be a terrific fit on paper that suit his old school skill set rather than the modern bomb-and-gouge tactics preferred by the younger generation.

In addition to the presumed course fit, Rose also brings sharp form that can't be ignored in an event that's dotted with so-so performers once we get past a few featured groups. The veteran has rarely set a foot wrong in 2023, grabbing a victory at Pebble Beach early in the year and ripping off top-25 finishes in each of his last four starts thanks to magnificent work with the irons. Though he's 42, Rose reminded us that he can still win at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and he’s certainly capable of getting it done this week.

Yearly Cuts Made - 19/20

 

Josh Bennett - Tyrrell Hatton

Alternate - Adam Hadwin

This week is just a week that one player very much stands out and there’s really no need to re-think it. Hatton hasn’t been outside of the top 20 since the Masters, and even played pretty decently there given he’s been outspoken about not liking Augusta. Maybe sneakily, maybe not, one of the most consistent players on Tour this year, in a field full of mostly not great golfers. Great form, gains in all four major strokes gained categories, no need to think about this any further, Hatton has a great chance to win and is a top class player in the field, lock it in (if available)!

Yearly Earnings -$6,304,892
Yearly Cuts Made - 16/20

Spencer Aguiar - Cameron Young

Alternate - Tommy Fleetwood

My model noticed a few statistical answers that turned Cameron Young into the best upside option in the field when we ignored his paltry current form. I realize how someone is producing does matter, but I expect Oakdale to play as a different venue than some of these challenging stops that have caused Young issues with his short game.

My numbers made him one of only two players (Sam Burns) in this field to grade inside the top 10 for every statistical metric I ran in my model. That naturally generates a higher floor for this track than we have gotten during his previous four events where he has failed to post a top 50, but the key to this puzzle might end up being his 'Expected Realization Of Opportunities Created.’

That stems from how often someone will generate a birdie look and capitalize on it by making the putt. We don't think of Young as someone that makes a ton of putts on any given week, but my math had him as the 23rd-best putter in this field when given looks from 5-15 feet on similar greens.

I will shoot for all the upside since we know I could use it.

Yearly Cuts Made - 12/20

 

Byron Lindeque - Sahith Theegala

“I am tempted to just take a guy who can’t putt, that way a poor putting performance won’t be a surprise. Naturally, by that logic, we should roll out Scottie Scheffler, which is exactly what we are going to do.” - the Memorial OAD article. Guess what folks, Scheffler lead the field in SG ARG, SG APP, and SG OTT while …. and now queue the drumroll pleeeeeaaase … while finishing dead last in putting for the week. He somehow finished third with the largest differential between SG tee-to-green and SG putting … in the SG era!!! We will begrudgingly take our 1 mil that he snagged putting like my dad after 15 Keystones. 

I am going to burn a big name this week as I am hoping he won’t be on too many people’s radars as his driver took a trip with Charlie to the chocolate factory the last three events, as it has been rather wonky since the Wells Fargo Championship. But, this week Sahith Theegala has the golden ticket to leave that candy crusted mystery stick in the bag and start sugar coating tee shots with that driving iron that got him into the lead at the WMPO in 2021 before a bad bounce on the 2nd-last hole saw his ball plop into the chocolate river alongside 17 green. 

Outside of the driver, Sahith provides nothing but magic in the other areas of his game. If we get a bit of a birdie fest this week on an unknown course, Theegala should be just fine considering he makes the 2nd-most birdies in the field. He is also the most aggressive wedge player on tour, hitting 15% of his shots inside 6 feet from 100-150 yards this year. If we can get an outlier performance from him this week in this department, could we maybe see him knock 1 in every 4 wedges to kick in range? About half the approach shots on this course will come from less than 150 yards.

He also has been putting really well over the last 24 rounds, gaining the 4th-most strokes on the greens over the last two-dozen rounds, making Sahith Theegala our Willy Wonker Won-n-Doner for the week. 

Yearly Earnings - $8,546,420
Yearly Cuts Made - 18/20

 

Andrew Putters - To Come

Alternate - To Come

Yearly Earnings - $6,328,423
Yearly Cuts Made - 15/20

 

Mia The Model - Tommy Fleetwood

Alternate - Cameron Young

Byron T20

TeeOff T20

Aggregated Results

One of the significant differences you will notice is that I attached the aforementioned percent weight to each player when I randomized the list for the week. That means an option like Cameron Young got rewarded for being a better option for our models (which we see with his 15% chance) all the way down to the bottom of our board in TONS of names receiving 5% of the projected pick equity.

We agreed on randomizing the list five times to settle on the name, and Mia has decided she wants to roll with Tommy Fleetwood this week as the selection and Cameron Young as the alternate.

Let us know what you think of her chances this week!
