Charles Schwab Challenges Weekend Gambling Guide: 3 Drafts

Welcome to our weekly PGA Tour Gambling Competition column, which includes the draft picks of Golf.com’s expert prophet Brady Kannon. Kannon is an experienced golf pitcher and commentator and is a regular guest at Sportsgrid, a joint sound network dedicated to sports and sports betting. You can follow on Twitter @lasvegasgolferyou can read his draft pick in the weekend round of the 2025 Charles Schwab Challenge.

It was indeed a huge victory for the golf season. Golf legends with the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, Charles Schwab Challenge (Ben Hogan) and Jack Nicklaus host a memorial next week. We have to see a classic tournament like Philadelphia Cricket Club hosting a signature event to start the pump for the PGA Championship. After the Memorial, it was the Canadian Open and the U.S. Open, shortly thereafter, the Scottish Open and Open Championship. For golf fans and golf shooting, it is indeed a very delicious run.

For now, we are knocking on the door to Memorial Day weekend, just halfway through the second leg of the legendary Trifecta, with 36 holes on “Hogan’s Alley” in Fort Worth, Texas. Perhaps the most surprising thing is that the world’s best longhorn man, Scottie Scheffler, didn’t win. In fact, he led 10 strokes and won the Golf Championship 35-1. When was the last time we saw such a price at the current three-time Grand Slam championship?

Scheffler looked like he was doing his thing again after a 68-under 2-shot game on Thursday, but he hit 71 on Friday with a 71-shot percentage. Scheffler tied for 49th There are two rounds of games left.

Ben Griffin, who was the champion of the Zurich of New Orleans last month, shared the lead with Matti Schmid. Both are under 11 in the game – the pre-tour championship hit rate is 13.5, considering the winning score proposition bet released in Las Vegas. Surprising first-round leader John Pak was two shots and ranked third. Akshay Bhatia returned to three with a 7-shot lead. Six players tied with 6 shots, including Rickie Fowler, JJ Spaun and Tommy Fleetwood.

It seems we were in the 90s cool temperatures on Saturday and Sunday, and the winds were from 10 to 20 mph for the two days. It seems that this is not easy. Friday is probably the best scoring day we see in all tournaments.

Ben Griffin (+210)

We landed Griffin correctly (and playing partner Andrew Novak) last month in the preview column for the New Orleans Zurich Classic. It seems that both players only need that winger to help them cross the finish line. Now that I tasted the victory, I believe Griffin is ready to achieve it. He did a great job. Seventh in SG: Nearly fourth in green, fourth in regulations, sixth in SG, and around green, he ranked first in this field: Tee to Green. Griffin scored more than three shots on the court with putters and is currently ranked 10th in the field for SG:Putting. Honestly, if he was just a little cooler on the weekend, I would love it, which makes him more likely to improve than to back off the next two rounds. He is a very good putt and although he may be a little slippery, everything else of his is for him, but I believe he has enough ability to do it.

Emiliano Grillo Top 5 Finish (+400)

Grillo won 30-1, +175 finished the top 10 with +175. I don’t think these two games are bad. He won the competition in the Colonial in 2023. Through two rounds of competition, Grillo is currently ranked 14th in this field SG: Off Tee. He ranks number one in driving accuracy, fourth in regulations, and SG: sixth. His batting was excellent. He ranks third in SG: Tee to Green. However, he ranks No. 68 in SG: Putters – this is aimed at someone who completely twists his own game with putters. Grillo is ranked 48th in SG: Putters. Not long ago, he was one of the worst games in the Flatstick game. This has changed since then and I hope it will change as well on weekends.

fade

Matti Schmid (+400)

Schmid has been making a living in substitute for the field this season but has performed poorly in the upgraded game. He finished sixth in the Puerto Rico Open and ninth in Corales Puntacana and seventh in the Myrtle Beach Classic a few weeks ago. However, he missed the promotion, in every game in Texas so far this year: Houston Open, Texas Valero Open and CJ Cup Byron Nelson. Schmid is currently ranked first in two rounds of SG: Putting. Meanwhile, he ranks 61st in driving accuracy, while the greens are 60th. He ranks 31st in SG: Advance and 25th around the green. Schmid is a solid putt, but he plays overhead with a flat stick and I hope to back off the weekend. If the putter falls, the rest of his game is in progress and I can’t see him hanging on Sunday’s championship game.
