Winner
Sam Belden
Patrick Reed
Sam Belden has made his pick and it is Patrick Reed (+1,400) who he thinks will win the Quicken Loans National this week. What makes Reed such a good pick in his eyes is his outstanding record here at Congressional. The Texan held the 54-hole lead in 2014 before fading to a tie for 11th. The 25-year-old has been playing some solid golf of late as well, notching top-28 finishes in four of his last six starts. With the form that he is in right now and his experience with this particular golf course, Reed has an excellent chance of nabbing the crown this coming weekend.

Randy Chambers
Ryan Palmer
Randy Chambers of Sports Chat Place has made his choice and it is Ryan Palmer (+3,000) who he believes will win the Quicken Loans National this week. He has been playing some incredible golf of late, mustering three top-25 finishes in his last five starts, including a third-place showing at the Dean & DeLuca Invitational. Palmer also knows his way around the Congressional course as evidenced by his three T25s in his last five tries here. Look for the 39-year-old to be in the hunt once again this coming weekend.
