Betting the Cadillac Championship: Best bets, tips and more - ESPN

The PGA Tour is back at Trump National Doral's Blue Monster Course in Miami, a 7,739-yard par-72 that hasn't hosted a Tour event since Adam Scott won here in 2016.

There's water on 16 of 18 holes, five par-4s over 450 yards, four par-5s average just over 600 yards, and three par-3s over 200.

This course doesn't really have a soft spot, so the player that wins here drives it long and straight, hits long irons with laser-point accuracy, and doesn't flinch on Sunday.

How to play Scottie Scheffler

Full odds (with ties):

Top 5 -148

To win +310

Scheffler is the best player in the field on pure talent and consistency. He's top-five, if not top-three, in nearly every course-relevant category, putting him in a different stratosphere from everyone else.

The one relative weakness is his approach play, which has been shaky most of the season and ranks 18th in the field. It's the softest part of an otherwise dominant profile. Scheffler's 200-plus yard band barely cracks the top 60, which directly maps to a course that hits that range repeatedly on par-3s and long par-4s. It's not enough to fade because his profile is too dominant.

Since Feb. 2025, Scheffler has 18 top-five finishes in 28 events and seven wins, including one win in 2026. He has back-to-back runner-up finishes at the Masters and RBC. The (-148) is correctly pricing a player who converts at that rate.

The question is your bankroll risk. The most relevant red flag is a T24 at Bay Hill last month, where Scheffler lost nearly three strokes with his irons, but he gained nearly seven at Augusta. That volatility with his irons is a risk, but if you're building a card, the (-148) should not be thought of as
