2022 Rocket Mortgage Classic Recap

The favorite to win the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic took the top prize last year. Tony Finau shot a -26 to comfortably beat Patrick Cantlay, Taylor Pendrith, and Cameron Young.

Those three golfers finished tied for second with -21 scores. Stephen Jaeger finished fifth with a -20, Taylor Moore sixth at -19, and Tom Kim seventh at -18. Two players finished tied for eighth with a -17, 2023 U.S. Open winner Wyndham Clark and JJ Spaun.

2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic Top Pick

Tony Finau isn’t in the best form. However, the bad form has come about because Tony has played in deep, high-level tournaments like the PGA Championship and the U.S. Open.

The favorite to win this week has already taken home a couple of trophies this season. Tony won the Cadence Bank Houston Open. Then he beat Jon Rahm to win the Mexico Open.

This is the type of tournament where Finau excels. Tony easily beat Cantlay last year. Finau will hit the ball with confidence and the odds are fair.

2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic Second Pick

the cut at both The Memorial Tournament and the U.S. Open. However, in the last tournament played the +1600 choice was fantastic. Thomas scored a 70-64-62-67 on his way to a tied ninth at the Travelers Championship.

The 3 straight rounds of under 70 imply Thomas is playing well enough to win this. If you don’t believe Finau goes back-to-back, consider putting money behind Justin Thomas.

2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic Third Pick

Collin Morikawa has been up and down all season. Collin has scored five top ten finishes. He’s also missed the cut in five and withdrew from The Memorial Tournament in early June.

Morikawa missed the cut at the Travelers Championship, which is why he shows up third on our picks list. However, if you believe Collin gets it together on Saturday, he’s worth a look.

This week’s PGA Tournament field isn’t overlay deep, and Morikawa offers decent odds. So if you like him, go for it.

2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic Underdog Pick

Stephan Jaeger’s best finish this season was a tied ninth at the Cadence Bank Houston Open. He scored an eleventh place finish at the AT&T Byron Nelson.

The Rocket Mortgage Classic is more on the level of the Houston Open and Byron Nelson. Also, Jaeger shot a -20 to finish fifth in this last year.

The competition isn’t overly stiff. So Jaeger could surprise. If you want to take a shot on an underdog, taking a shot on Stephan Jaeger makes sense.
