PNC Championship Analysis

Tournament Context (15:30 - 16:00 ):

The PNC Championship features iconic parent-child duos at the Ritz-Carlton Golf Club in Orlando. Despite fan-favorites like Tiger and Charlie Woods (+650) and the Dalys (+400), Will advises against picking them due to health and performance concerns for the senior members.

Key Teams and Predictions:

1. Steve and Izzy Stricker (20-to-1) (16:00 - 16:30 ):

• Steve had a strong Champions Tour season, but Izzy’s inconsistent college performance raises doubts about their chances.

1. Trevor and Jacob Immelman (40-to-1) (16:30 - 17:00 ):

• Trevor’s lack of competitive play since retiring makes this team unlikely contenders, despite Jacob’s talent.

1. Nelly and Peter Korda (28-to-1) (17:00 - 17:30 ):

• Nelly is coming off a stellar LPGA season, but Peter’s golf skills may not be enough to secure a win.

1. Outright Winner: Matt and Cameron Kuchar (+650) (17:30 - 19:37 ):

• Cameron’s strong junior results and Matt’s active PGA Tour schedule make them the most competitive team.


• Their performance last year (opening round 57) and Matt’s recent top finishes make them the clear favorites.
