Ryan Gerard is the +1600 favorite despite a short track record at this level, while Koepka drifts to +3000 after a missed cut at the WM Phoenix Open.
Daniel Berger reflects solid value at +2700. He’s recorded three career top-fives at this event, including 2022, even after some uneven recent starts.
