Ride DJ’s Dominant Form

Of all the golfers to consider backing in Sunday’s singles format, Dustin Johnson should be at the top of the list. He’s the only player from either side to post a 4-0 record so far, and he’s trailed for a grand total of two holes over the entire course of his four matches.

He’s the first American player win a match in each of the four sessions at the Ryder Cup since Larry Nelson in 1979, and he has a game tailor-made to excel at this difficult track. When on, DJ is arguably the best all around player in the game, boasting an unmatched combination of length off the tee, precision on approach, and world-class feel on and around the greens.

He owns a 5-2-1 lifetime record in the singles format at the Ryder Cup and President’s Cup, and has owned Paul Casey this week. DJ, alongside Collin Morikawa twice, and Xander Schauffele once, is 3-0 versus Casey pairings, winning 18 holes while dropping just 11.

Casey, likely deflated after three straight defeats, was given the afternoon session off on Saturday, and hasn’t won a Ryder Cup singles match since 2006.

Pick: Dustin Johnson (-190)

Sergio Stuns DeChambeau

While an American victory certainly feels inevitable, don’t expect Team Europe to go down without a fight. They’ve erased large Sunday deficits at this event in the past, and while this year’s may be too large to overcome, they’re going to win their share of singles matches.

One European to target is Sergio Garcia, the winningest Ryder Cup player in history. The Spaniard is 3-0 this week, and will methodically make his way around this difficult track by peppering fairways and greens, and capitalizing on his makeable birdie looks.

His style will be a stark contrast to his opponent’s, Bryson DeChambeau, who’s whipped the crowd into a frenzy every time he’s pulled driver, launching some unbelievable tee shots.

DeChambeau is a far more entertaining player to watch, but his bomb and gauge strategy can be incredibly volatile. His match play track record as a professional doesn’t hold a candle to Garica’s, as he’s 1-3-1 all-time in singles, while Saturday’s four-ball victory was his first team win in either Ryder Cup or President’s Cup play.

DeChambeau is incredibly overvalued at -145 in this matchup, even more so when you consider his recent singles results. He halved with Adam Hadwin at the 2019 President’s Cup, while posting losses to Marc Leishman (5 and 4) and Kiradech Aphibarnrat at the WGC Match Play, and Alex Noren at the 2018 Ryder Cup.

Pick: Sergio Garcia (+125)
