Five 2015 WGC Cadillac Championship High-Value Sleeper Picks

Sergio Garcia

[sc:Golf240banner ]If there’s one golfer who’s overdue for a victory here in this tournament, it’s got to be Sergio Garcia. In 15 appearances in the Cadillac Championship, Garcia has wound up in the top 10 seven times including two third-place finishes.

Garcia’s off to a solid start in the PGA Tour this year, finishing in a tie for fourth in the Northern Trust Open last month. Look for Garcia to build on that performance this week at Doral. He is pegged at +2,800 to win his first Cadillac title.

Justin Rose

Let’s be honest here: it hasn’t been the rosiest of starts for Justin Rose in the PGA Tour this year. The 2013 U.S. Open champion has missed the cut in his opening two events on tour, namely the Farmers Insurance Open and the Honda Classic.

With that being said, you can never discount Rose from turning his game around at Doral this week. Rose has had some success in the Cadillac Championship before, winning the tournament back in 2012 with a 16-under-par total of 272. That experience is the main reason why Rose is listed at +3,000 to win the title this weekend.

Matt Kuchar

One of the hottest golfers on tour this season is definitely Matt Kuchar. He already has two top-3 finishes on tour this year, finishing third in the Sony Open and second in the Humana Challenge last January.

What makes Kuchar a solid pick at this week’s event, though, is his excellent record at the Cadillac Championship as of late. In his last five starts at Doral, Kuchar has finished in the top 10 three times. Expect Kuchar to be in the hunt this coming weekend. He is set at +3,000 to claim his eighth PGA Tour title this week.

Brooks Koepka

It’s quite fascinating to see the rise of Brooks Koepka. The 24-year-old has taken the golfing world by storm this year, winning the Waste Management Phoenix Open in his first tournament in the PGA Tour this year.

Key to his strong start this year has been his phenomenal driving and scoring. He is second in the PGA Tour in driving distance, averaging 309.8 yards per drive this year. He is also third in the tour in scoring, shooting an average of 69.457 strokes this season.

That will come in handy with the expected brutal conditions at Doral. His long drives will definitely help him in navigating the long 7,528-yard Blue Monster course. Koepka is pegged at +3,500 to win his second PGA Tour title this week.

Keegan Bradley

Although Keegan Bradley missed the cut at the Honda Classic, there are still plenty of positives to take from Bradley’s game heading into this week’s Cadillac Championship. He’s one of the longest drivers on Tour this season, averaging 299.8 yards per drive this year (25th in the PGA Tour).

His improved driving has helped him garner a top 4 finish earlier this year at the Northern Trust Open. Bradley will fancy his chances of having a good showing this week as well as he has finished in the top 10 in two of his three previous starts here. His odds of winning the Cadillac crown are set at +4,500.
