The Spanish swing continues this week with the Catalunya Championship debuting on the DP World Tour at the Stadium Course, PGA Catalunya Resort.
Best Bet
Ryan Fox ($41)
Following on from his win in the Ras Al Khaimah Classic, Ryan Fox can go on with it at a course that should suit his game down to the ground.
Success at Catalunya will be determined by those long off the tee who can either find greens or scramble well and can score on the Par 5s.
Fox ranks 3rd on Tour in Driving Distance and 10th in Par 5 Scoring.
Form on the correlation courses is excellent roo with a 4th in the Andalucia Masters last year and a Top 20 in the 2020 BMW PGA Championsdhip. Finished T-15 last week in a good warmup for this.
Mid-Tier Bet
John Catlin ($67)
The winner of the 2020 Andalucia Masters has a game that will fit perfectly into this course.
He finished 11th in the 2021 Andalucia Masters and 21st in the 2021 European Masters.
The American ranks 13th in GIR and 20th in Par 5 Scoring. Expect a big showing at big odds.
Roughie
Jamie Donaldson ($201)
Ranks Top 20 in two of the key statistical guides here: scrambling and Par 5 scoring. Finished 2nd in the BMW PGA Championship last year while he also finished Top 10 in the 2020 Andalucia Masters.
Prop
Top Swedish Player – Alexander Bjork ($4.00)
A Top 15 Scrambler on the DP World Tour so well suited here. Form on the correlation courses also a big tick with a 4th at the 2021 Andalucia Masters and a 13th at the 2021 European Masters.
