2023 Wells Fargo Championship one and done picks, sleepers, purse: PGA Tour predictions, bets from golf expert
The PGA Tour travels to Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina this week for the Wells Fargo Championship 2023. World No. 3 Rory McIlroy headlines the field and is listed as the 15-2 betting favorite in the latest Wells Fargo Championship odds from Caesars Sportsbook. Other top contenders in the Wells Fargo field include Patrick Cantlay (14-1), Xander Schauffele (16-1), Tony Finau (17-1) and Jordan Spieth (19-1). As one of the PGA Tour's elevated events, the total 2023 Wells Fargo Championship purse is $20 million, with $3.6 million going to the champion.
As one of the hottest players in the world, Finau will likely be a very popular PGA one and done pick this week. Is the 33-year-old PGA Tour veteran a must play this week at Quail Hollow? Or would it make more sense to go with a sleeper like Rickie Fowler, Sahith Theegala, or Tommy Fleetwood? Before locking in your 2023 Wells Fargo Championship one and done picks, you need to see what SportsLine DFS pro and PGA expert Mike McClure has to say.
The One and Done format is growing in popularity. It has several noticeable similarities to NFL Survivor pools, with the main difference being entries are not eliminated with a bad week. Players pick one golfer per week and earn points based on their selected golfer's prize money for that tournament. Golfers can only be used once per season, and the point format makes nailing majors and big money tournaments critical.
McClure is a DFS legend with nearly $2 million in career winnings, and he's been red-hot on his PGA picks dating back to the PGA Tour restart in June of 2020. McClure uses his proprietary simulation model to analyze the field and crush his golf picks.
McClure has nailed plenty of One and Done picks, including Luke List at the Sentry Tournament of Champions. At the Farmers Insurance Open, McClure's top One and Done pick, Max Homa, outlasted the entire field to take home his sixth career PGA Tour victory and $1.566 million. At the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, McClure backed 48-1 long shot Taylor Pendrith in One and Done pools, and he came through for $271,100. At the WM Phoenix Open, McClure nailed Scheffler winning the tournament, taking home $3.6 million. At the Genesis Invitational, he was all over Max Homa, who finished in second place and took home $2.18 million. At the Arnold Palmer Invitational, McClure took 35-1 longshot Jason Day, who finished in 10th place for $485,000. And at Valspar Championship, McClure's top OAD pick, Tommy Fleetwood, finished in third place.
Now, McClure has dialed in on the 2023 Wells Fargo Championship golf tournament, and just locked in his one and done picks and PGA predictions. You can only see McClure's Wells Fargo Championship one and done picks at SportsLine.
Top 2023 Wells Fargo Championship One and Done picks
One of McClure's top one and done picks this week for the Wells Fargo Championship is 31-year-old Wyndham Clark. The No. 4 ranked player in the Official World Golf Ranking comes in at 14-1 to win the tournament, and McClure believes he has tremendous upside this week against an elite field at Quail Hollow. Cantlay enters the Wells Fargo Championship with top-20 finishes in each of his last seven starts, with five top-10's and four top-5's in that span.
The eight-time PGA Tour winner is elite in several metrics. Cantlay ranks second on the PGA Tour in strokes gained off-the-tee (0.957), fourth in total strokes gained (2.026), sixth in strokes gained tee-to-green (1.510), and 17th in strokes gained putting (0.516). With the immense amount of talent in the Wells Fargo field, it's very possible that Cantlay will fly under the radar in one and done pools this week offering huge value.
