Bamford Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) A par-70 course in White Sulphur Springs, Old White TPC has now hosted a PGA Tour tournament since 2010. As a tournament, it's never really 'caught fire' and despite attracting some names every year, they rarely feature. That could be due to the party hosted by Nick Faldo in his mansion here, or it could be due to a lack of motivation at a tournament, which many players describe in interview as having a small-scale feel to it. Maybe that's why web.com graduates tend to fly here, on a course which is trickier than people give it credit for. Bentgrass green complexes are tricky and eventually a good putter wins this over a pure ball-striker. Don't get me wrong high-class ball-strikers or high-class short game players can all win this, but if you expect Keegan Bradley to win this week - you might be disappointed. Essentially you still have to get the ball in the hole, and those with a hotter putter eventually win. I'm on Joaquin Niemann (28/1), Danny Lee (60/1), Anirban Lahiri (70/1), Stephan Jaeger (200/1) and Denny McCarthy (250/1).
