FanDuel managing editor: Cameron Young (16-1, FanDuo) - Cameron is a ball-striker who is undervalued.
Xander Schauffele is the best player in the field. He has no flaws in his game and has won the most strokes over the past 50 rounds, 36 rounds and 24 rounds. His record in Japan is excellent, finishing T-10 and T -28 at this golf course.
