Rocket Classic Prediction

Best Bet: Ben Griffin to win @ 20/1

Ben Griffin has enjoyed a breakout season on the PGA Tour, first teaming up with Andrew Novak to land the Zurich Classic of New Orleans in April before landing his maiden solo title at the Charles Schwab Challenge in May.

The 29-year-old has also been making his mark in the Majors, with a tied-eighth finish at the US PGA Championship and a top 10 at the US Open his best results in those two tournaments.

Griffin's last five starts have produced efforts of T8-1-2-T10-T14, evidence of his fantastic form, and he can continue his quest for automatic qualification for the USA's Ryder Cup team with a victory in Michigan.

James Mason explains:

Ben Griffin has hit another level with two victories this season and the confident American, who has a first Ryder Cup appearance in his sights, can demonstrate his class by going low at Detroit Golf Club.

Alternative Bet: Harry Hall @ 28/1

With the winning scores at the Rocket Classic being -18 or better, making birdies is the order of the week and that bodes well for Harry Hall, who has made the most birdies on the PGA Tour this season and is also fourth in birdie average.

The 27-year-old Englishman is one of the best putters around and he is unrivalled in overall putting average and putts per round, while he is second in strokes gained putting.

Hall was tied-ninth at the Travelers last week, his second top-10 finish from his last three starts, and his red-hot flat stick can be utilised to good effect on his third crack at this event.

James Mason adds:

Making putts will be crucial to success this week and Harry Hall has done that better than most this season. He has been dynamite on the greens and that area of his game can help deliver a second PGA Tour title.
