2016 Bridgestone Invitational Expert Picks and Predictions

Sam Belden | Jason Day

Sam Belden has made his pick and it is Jason Day (+550) who he thinks will win the Bridgestone Invitational this week. The world no. 1 has been playing some excellent golf of late, grabbing top-25 finishes in nine of his last 10 starts, including victories at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, WGC Match Play and PLAYERS Championship. Day finished in a tie for eighth in his last start at the U.S. Open, shooting a two-over-par total of 282. The 28-year-old has had some success at Firestone in the past as well, finishing in a tie for fourth back in 2011.

What makes Day such a huge threat in every golf tournament that he competes on is his deft touch on the putting greens. He is tops in the PGA Tour in strokes gained via putting with an incredible 1.145 average. That will be a major weapon for Day when navigating the delicate greens of the Firestone course.

Randy Chambers | Patrick Reed

Randy Chambers of Sports Chat Place has made his choice and it is Patrick Reed (+3,500) who he believes will win the Bridgestone Invitational this week. The Texan has been playing some solid golf of late, mustering 10 top-25 finishes in his last 19 starts, including a second-place showing at the Valero Texas Open. Reed also knows his way around the Firestone course as evidenced by his two top-20 finishes in this event. Look for the San Antonio native to be in the hunt once again this coming weekend.
