We are at the penultimate event of the 2022 DP World Tour season and we return to South Africa and the famed Gary Player Country Club in Sun City for the Nedbank Challenge.
Best Bet
Smith ended a long run of outs with a strong win in Portugal. He is all class and that will be a real confidence booster. This is a course that will suit someone who can get distance from the tee, has a strong iron game and is good around the greens. Smith ranks 1st in Strokes Gained: Off The Tee, 1st in GIR, 2nd in Par 5 Scoring, 4th in Scrambling and 5th in Bogey Avoidance.
Mid-Tier Bet
Quality veteran who is getting back to his best. Four Top 18 finishes in his last seven starts including a T-4 in Portugal. Ranks 2nd in Strokes Gained: Approach, 7th in Bogey Avoidance and 14th in Scrambling so profile is strong here.
Value Bet
Younh German star well and truly on the rise. Won his first DP World Tour event in the Mallorca Open. Ranks Top 15 in GIR, Strokes Gained: Approach, Scrambling and Bogey Avoidance.
Longshot Bet
Underrated Scot who looks to have the right game for here. Distance off the tee is preferred but not a necessity. He has an elite iron game ranking 3rd in GIR while he ranks 3rd in Bogey Avoidance, 6th in Scrambling and 14th in Strokes Gained: Off The Tee,
