The Corales Puntacana Championship Intro

Opposite-field tournaments take place in the same week as some of the PGA Tour’s Signature Events but that doesn’t mean that they lack excitement or betting opportunities.

In fact, it might be the case that they are some of the best betting markets of the year.

In the case of the Corales Puntacana Championship, we are looking at a course with distinct characteristics and a field full of players with a strong incentive to succeed.

The punter who completes his or her research can get ahead of the books.

Consider last year’s winner Billy Horschel and 2023 champion Matt Wallace - both would have been identified by the astute bettor as desperate to succeed and, in the case of Horschel, with great form on other designs by the architect.

There’s plenty to play for but who will take the honors? Let’s find out.

The Corales Course Winners

The Corales Course Notes

• The Tom Fazio-designed layout is a par 72 that plays to 7,670 yards

• It’s a typical resort course and wide from the tee

• The putting surfaces have Supreme Paspalum grass on them

• Sea breezes are a significant factor and determine the scoring

Ben Griffin (+1600) at BetMGM

In 2025 alone he has finished fourth in the Mexico Open and fourth again in the Cognizant Classic.

He was T14 on debut in 2020, T22 in 2021, and sixth last year.

He was second in this event in 2018 and has recorded top 20s in his last two starts.

Max Out on McGreevy

It’s been a tough season so far for Max McGreevy but there are good reasons to believe that he can turn it around this week.

Last year was a stellar one for him with two victories on the Korn Ferry Tour, plus another in in the prestigious Dunlop Phoenix Tournament on the Japanese Tour.

He’s always been good at winning, landing a victory in the China Tour in 2019 and a first KFT triumph in 2020.

He’s also very good in opposite-field events finishing second in the 2022 Puerto Rico Open and eighth in the 2022 Bermuda Championship. 

He showed his class when T20 in the recent Players Championship but he was also fourth in the Honda Classic on the Tom Fazio-designed PGA National.

He likes Fazio designs with second and third at Landings Club, third at Thornblade, and eighth at Victoria National.

Back him each way with BetMGM offering +4500 for six places.

Take Potgieter’s Potential

The South African youngster Aldrich Potgieter has played Tam Fazio designs four times and is yet to crack the top 40 but we can give him a break this week.

Because Potgieter’s greatest strength (attacking a golf course from the tee box) is an ideal fit for the course.

The stats prove it: he’s very long (ranking first for Driving Distance) and also strong (ranking 19th for Strokes Gained Off the Tee).

This year he’s finished 15th on another long course by the ocean (Torrey Pines) in the Farmers Insurance Open and contended all week when second on a wide open resort course in the Mexico Open.

He’s also won on an island resort course on the Korn Ferry Tour last year.

He’s the value each way option at +4500 with Caesars Sportsbook paying five places.

Svensson Found Something

Canada’s Adam Svensson found something from the tee box last time out in the Texas Open and we should take heed.

He ranked 19th for SG Off the Tee and his short game was sharp too (third for Around the Greens).

Back in 2017 he finished sixth in this tournament and he likes a Tom Fazio design.

He won at The Landings Club in 2021, was second at The Glen Club the same year, and ninth at PGA National in 2022.

He can make the top 20 with bet365 offering +260.
