Maverick McNealy: Top-20 Finish (+175)
Maverick McNealy is quietly having a very good 2024 PGA Tour season. He is currently ranked in the top 20 in a few statistical categories that translate well to this course. Hamilton Golf and Country Club requires precision with your tee shots to get in good position to attack some of these pins from the fairway, especially as these players will see a lot of dog-leg-shaped holes. McNealy ranks 19th on Tour in strokes gained off-the-tee.
Once positioned well off of the tee, it will be important for players on this course to save strokes elsewhere. McNealy ranks 11th on Tour in strokes gained total and 20th in strokes gained tee-to-green. Some of these Par 4 holes will call for longer shots onto the green and when these players don’t hit them in regulation, it will be paramount to scramble, converting on getting the ball up and down. McNealy ranks 12th on tour in par-4 scoring, ninth in scrambling and 17th in total putting.
This course sets up very well for his strongest attributes, and I think there’s a strong chance that we see him finish within the top 20 for the fifth time this season.
