BMW Championship Saturday Golf Matchups

Cameron Young Ov. Jordan Spieth -120 (Bet365)

Young and Spieth are both off to a great start at the BMW Championship but have done it in different ways. Cameron Young has been around field average in strokes gained putting through 2 rounds sitting at +0.15 but is sitting at -7 for the tournament, just one off the lead. He is making up a lot of strokes from tee to green with a +2.71 strokes gained. Jordan Spieth on the other hand is also sitting at -7 but has done so with much better putting stats (+1.19 strokes gained putting). I expect some regression form Jordan who ranks 39th out of 70 in the field in strokes gained putting over his last 24 rounds and 40th in strokes gained total in that same time period. Give me Cameron Young who is 2nd in strokes gained from tee to green in the field over the last 24 rounds to make a few putts tomorrow and get himself in position to win on Sunday.

Joo-Hyung (Tom) Kim Ov. Matthew Fitzpatrick +125 (DraftKings)

Fading Matthew Fitzpatrick has not been a favorable spot this year for bettors but here I am. This hasn’t been a great tournament for either of these guys who are both sitting E, 8 strokes back. Matthew is not hitting the ball well and realistically its pretty crazy he is E with his strokes gained stats. He is sitting on a -2.6 strokes gained tee to green but is being saved by his putting which is +1.72 strokes gained through the first 2 rounds. I expect some regression in those putting stats for Matthew and if his tee to green stats don’t get better it could be a tough Saturday for the Englishmen. Tom Kim is siting about field average in all stroke gained stats so far through 2 days. Give me Tom who is 4th in strokes gained total in the field over the last 24 round to get it going on Saturday.
