Bank of Utah Championship
Ben James
No.3 of 15 by win
Why the model likes him
- In form — gaining +2.25 strokes/round on the field over his last 5 starts (T2, T3, T38, T4).
- Ranks No.3 of 15 in the model's win odds.
- Best edge — Win: model gives 11.1%, the +1400 price only needs 6.7% to break even, so +65.9% EV at that price (unproven vs the market until CLV bears it out).
