The defending champion of this tournament is Robert Garrigus who led the field in driving distance a year ago. He also was in the top 15 in greens in regulation and in putts per round. He is considered a longshot this year at 50-1.
Luke Donald 8-1
He is always capable of winning but he may be overvalued at 8-1. He hasn’t played this event since 2003 and he is just 51st on the PGA Tour in greens.
Webb Simpson 9-1
He should probably be the favorite as he is ultra-consistent. He is the second choice in the golf odds but he is the PGA Tour money leader.
Justin Rose 13-1
This is a great course for Rose as he has one third place finish and two fourth place finishes at Disney. He also is the course record holder as he shot a 60 in 2006.
Charles Howell 16-1
He has a lot of top ten finishes this season (7) but he just doesn’t win enough to make him worth taking.
Gary Woodland 20-1
He has to be considered as he has 14 top 25 finishes in 24 starts this season. He is a bit risky though, as like Howell, he just doesn’t win that often.
Longshots
Spencer Levin is 28-1 and could definitely be a factor this week. He tied for third in this event last year as he ranked tied for 8th in greens in regulation and fifth in putting. Another player that could be right in the mix is John Senden. He hasn’t played since The Tour Championship but he has 14 top 25 finishes this year. He is fourth on the PGA Tour in greens in regulation. At 30-1 he definitely has some value in golf betting odds.
