August 6, 2024

Table of Contents

The PGA returns to action this week after pausing for the Olympics. The Wyndham Championship will be played at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, NC. 

Preview of the Wyndham Championship

There will be 18 Olympians taking on this par 70 course that measures 7.131 yards. But the real story of this weekend is the FedExCup implications. 

This is the last chance for anyone outside the top 70 to get the necessary points to qualify for the first round of the FedExCup Playoffs.

Key Contenders 

This field features four of the last five winners of the Wyndham Championship. 

  • 2023: Lucas Glover 
  • 2021: Kevin Kisner 
  • 2020: Jim Herman 
  • 2019: JT Poston 

JT Poston has been playing the best out of those prior four champions. Poston is securely in the FedexCup Playoffs, sitting in 34th place. 

Poston finished tied for seventh last year in this tournament and looks to build on that finish. He missed the cut in his previous two tournaments, the 3M Open and the Open-Championship. This week could be a great opportunity for him to get his swagger back

Sungjae Im is the betting favorite at +1200 and it is clear to see why. 

IM 2024 Resume: 

  • 9th in FedexCup Standings 
  • 20th in the World Golf Rankings
  • Four top-five finishes 
  • Seven top-ten finishes 

Im has been fairly successful at this tournament with his last three finishes being 14,2,24. He appears to be a top contender but what will my AI Golf Models have to say? 

 How I Use Rithmm Models for My 3M Open Winner Prediction 

Rithmm allows users to build a minimum of three models or they can provide them for you. This golf season I have been most successful with a model that Rithmm has built for me. I like to always say, not being the smartest guy in the room can be a positive. 

Rithmm models factor in:

  • Recent performance
  • Par 5 performance 
  • Par 4 performance 
  • Par 3 performance 
  • Course fit

This model puts more importance on recent performance, par 3 performance, and course fit. 

It also has been profitable on Top 5 finishes with an ROI of 8.99 percent.

My Wyndham Championship Winner Prediction from AI Model 

My model is pointing me towards a golfer that is currently sitting at +3500 in Akshay Bhatia. 

Bhatia is currently sitting at 15th in the FedexCup Standings with one win, one runner-up, and three top tens. 

Bhatia has been struggling lately but still is 14th in strokes gained. A major factor in my AI sports prediction. 

My official pick to win the Wyndham Championship is  Akshay Bhatia at +3500.
