The 2021-22 PGA TOUR is headed this week to Maryland, where many of the best players in the world will compete for the top prize in the 2022 Wells Fargo Championship. Have you made up your mind about which player to bet on? If not, let the experts help you decide.
For Jason Sobel of the Action Network, Corey Conners is going to make noise this week.
“For the former, though, I’ll stick with Conners, whose short number makes sense, considering he’s finished top-12 in four of his past six starts. In the last two of those — the RBC Heritage and the Masters — Conners finished positive Strokes Gained: Putting for the week.”

Rob Bolton
Marc Leishman
In his power rankings of players set to compete in the 2022 Wells Fargo Championship Rob Bolton of PGA.com has Marc Leishman on top.
“Give the Aussie a stern test with a little wind and he’ll usually elevate. Superbly balanced throughout his bag and sits No. 1 in par-3 scoring. Went T5-T13 when the QLN was held here.”
