STAKING: At PGT, we apply a strict and consistent staking strategy to every tip we publish. All published results on our site are calculated on the basis of one (1) unit per tip, unless otherwise stated. The actual dollar value of a unit (if any) is determined by each individual — it may be for a no-value bet with a friend, or $5 or $50. This methodology is for record-keeping and educational purposes only and is not a recommendation to bet or to bet in any particular way.

Nick Taylor Win 110-1 1.00 LOSS

SAINT NICK TO SHINE 🌞:

The Players Championships
PGA Event 13th March to 16th March
TPC Sawgrass, The Players Stadium Course
Ponta Vedra Beach, Florida, USA.
Tee off @ 10:40pm

Tipped & back to add to our other winners so far in 2025.

We have now backed TAYLOR in 3 of his PGA wins, he sits Top in most stats which this week an all rounder will come into play.

SAINT NICK due to the presents he has constantly provided us has always been quoted in many media articles he rates himself up with the better players.

Now the trio that TEE OFF together on Day 1 is TAYLOR, DETRY & STRAKA, the latter surprises me why he is not shorter odds as playing his best golf so far in 2025, we had SEPP @ $1000 in 2024 and no bull he finished Top 5, only 1 average day ruined it for us.

They TEE OFF from the 10th hole.

Anyway a deadly TRIO & Talor currently sist VERY HIGH on SG stats-
SG Total @ #15 with 1.230 strokes gained & 4th Approach to Green, his weaker game is OFF the Tee and I have seen him Putt just as well as the Top ranked Putters.

We have been on him when he has Birdied 8 of the last 9 holes to WIN. He sits in 6th GREENS in regualtion so I know he can Putt when he needs to.

So far in 2025 he has 1 x 1sts, 2 x Top 10s so 4 in Top 25 from 6 events so far.

Another that should beat Aaron Rai home, not beating up on RAI but to have him half the odds of Taylor seems hard to stomach. Silly for me not to back Taylor in Top 10 @ $11, Top 20 @ $4.80.

So 3 units out = $300, he only has to Top 20 to pay us back.

Brian Harman Win 160-1 1.00 LOSS

NEARING FORM -MAYB 1 EVENT 2 SOON 🤔:

The Players Championships
PGA Event 13th March to 16th March
TPC Sawgrass, The Players Stadium Course
Ponta Vedra Beach, Florida, USA.
Tee off @ 10:40pm

I have been watching Mr Harman for sometime now more so to the back end of 2024 & now into 2025, for longtime members you would still be counting cash as he delivered for us @ +$200 in 2023 @ The Open Champioships.

Now he is a player that is slowly building into form, the ??? is have I gone 1 or 2 events too soon?

Now he just scrapes into the Top 100 in 3 of the more significant SG stats so on paper he does not have stat power like our other 4 Main picks but he does like TPC SAWGRASS.

***2nd in 2024 with a -19 only 1 off the winner whre he really powered on Day 2 (with -7 then on moving day a -8, he also has 4 x Top 10s here so this is a course he can improve on.

Lacks current form although has 2 x Top 25s so more or less working into form.

There are players like Will Zalatoris, Russell Henley, Keegan Bradley & Billy Horschel that I have made way to include HARMAN here, only 1 of those 4 (HENLEY) is in very good recent form, stats have left the other 3 out of it but Horschel will win mid to late 2025 when he hits some form.

I even DID NOT back Justin Rose, hoping he does not bite me on the bum but at these odds you gotta take Top 10 @ $10.50 or Top 20 @ $5.20.

I will stretch myself to 3 units as we already know he has 4 x Top 10s here so $300 out.

I am not expecting everyone to cover everything buy if you bet $20 as 1 unit why not reduce down to $5 or $10 to cover all plays? merely suggestions.

Hideki Matsuyama Win 32-1 1.00 LOSS

🐴 4 COURSES- 💪 START TO 2025:

The Players Championships
PGA Event 13th March to 16th March
TPC Sawgrass, The Players Stadium Course
Ponta Vedra Beach, Florida, USA.
Tee off @ 10:40pm

Hideki already started 2025 off with a Win @ The Sentry carding a whopping -35, of the 6 PGA events he has played in 2025 he has that Win, 1 x Top 10, 2 x Top 20s + 1 x Top 25.

The mere fact he is a best having Won an overall 8 times on PGA tour along with 11 x International 1sts, His whole 270 event career he has notched up an Impressive 65 x Top 10 finishes, he makes $$$ in Top 10 (24%).

Currently #4 in FEDex & #6 in the World he relies on his current high @ #6 for SG Total
(Strokes Gained) = 1.641. He is #12 SG Tee to Green & 17th SG Approach to Green, his only blemish is SG off The Tee @ #114.

He does make up for it around the Greens @ #34, he can rely on his long drives (14th) to position himself closer to the Greens here, this week we will need an All rounder as we have some smart Putters in this line up however other stats let them down terribly.

4 x Top 10s on this course along with 3 x Top 25s, he will be in this for a long while. I will not be backing him Top 20 but will Top 10 personally @ $4.20.

So I will have 2 units out on HM = $200. He Top 10s I double my investment on him. Remember I play safety 1st.

Thomas Detry Win 220-1 1.00 LOSS

DETRY TO SOAR 🚀:

The Players Championships
PGA Event 13th March to 16th March
TPC Sawgrass, The Players Stadium Course
Ponta Vedra Beach, Florida, USA.
Tee off @ 10:40pm

Like Taylor we nailed him to Win @ chunky odds in 2025.

I still recall many members (about 30% asked the ?) asking should they cash out when he won the WM Phoenix Open @ $160- he was #1 in all SG stats over the weekend, now we have seen a few capitulate that really should of JUST WON (US OPEN springs to mind) he has openely explained his new MENTAL APPROACH to the game.

I must of read 10 different articles about DETRY in the last 3 months stating similar-

WHAT I WROTE before his WIN-

I have not given up on DETRY.

" What he has done Internationally has not really transferred in PGA but realistically he siys 17th in FED EX with a T5, T53, T15 & T48TH in 2025 but he carded a -24 when T5 which is what we are used to seeing. "

" He dropped off @ Farmers Insurance with only a-1 which is not usualr him, he bounce back with a-7 last week but he has won overseas & he does have a 20% SR to Top 10 from all his
67 events played "

Before TEE OFF here he is 29th in SG Total + 16th Off TEE + a strong 14th in SG Putting & he actually sits in 10th for LONGEST DRIVE but his APPROACH to Greens is his current downfall.

In saying that he still went 66, 64, 65 & 65 again highlighting he sat #1 in all SG stats from Day 2 to 4, of course at these odds you have to go Top 10 @ $14.50 + Top 20 @ $7.

3 units out so $300 in play.

Si Woo Kim Win 80-1 1.00 LOSS

I AM FOLLOWING 🤞:

The Players Championships
PGA Event 13th March to 16th March
TPC Sawgrass, The Players Stadium Course
Ponta Vedra Beach, Florida, USA.
Tee off @ 10:40pm

As previously advised I am not finished following religiously SWK yet so I learnt the hard way jumping off a few recently (Michael Kim) but SWK has paid his way withut winning for me yet.

Like most last week a reasonably day 2 or 3 saw a few drop off but SWK does sit high SG Off the Tee (29th) & SG total @ #49 & why he still sits in my stable of Top 50 players that I rate.

NOW he can be a bit everywhere around the greens so he will need to improve the Putter & convert birdies this week, I feel he is slowly building to a Top Tier result, he just has to stay around that 67 each day so his approach set up has to be on song, he is #2 for Longest drives presently so if we see him up Top 10 after Day 1 I will be bullish.

He just has to control himself this weekend, he ranks 2nd, 4th & 6th in APPROACHES from 100 to 275 yards, he can go low we need him to fire early.

***The possible disadvantage is he is starting Day 1 amongst the late starters, we shall see if early starts have any advantage, we will see especially with the comments about Scott Scheffler, he has won back to bck here but blown out after days 2 & 3 so put it into your back pocket.

Another I have to play Top 10 @ $6.60, IMO (humbly I am sure he beats home Aaron Rai) but yes I have 2 units in Play on SWK so we need minimally $200 back so if he cannot win a Top 10 can triple that outlay.
