However, we don't just use our model when making these picks. We also need to look at current form, course fits and horses for courses. This data can and should help inform our decision making, including validating things we see in the model. If everything lines up, then a player can become an auto-play. If only some parts of the equation suggest a player will perform well this week, then we may look more tepidly at investing in a player.

Event Finish History

We like to look for potential horses for courses with most PGA Tour events, particularly those with regular host courses. We're typically looking at players who finished in the top 15 at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in the last five years.

Here are those players:

Course Fits

A player is a course fit -- or a potential course fit, at least -- if their Strokes Gained breakout when they finish in the top 25 is similar to the average for top-25 finishers at this week's AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.

Here's our breakdown:

Putting: 34%
Tee to Green: 66%
Off the Tee: 16%
Approach: 34%
Around the Green: 16%

Some fits include:

Matt Fitzpatrick
Sahith Theegala
Jason Day
Robert MacIntyre

Find course fits using our member-only tool which shows this week's course numbers relative to the field.

I've also created a new listing which helps you find correlated courses by looking at the course fit breakdown for each recurring host course on the PGA Tour.

Good luck this week!
