The Players Championship Preview<\/b><\/h2>\n

Scheffler Poised to Defend Title<\/b><\/h3>\n

The reign of longshot victors on the PGA Tour might be over. Scottie Scheffler’s commanding win at the 2024 Arnold Palmer Invitational signifies a potential return to dominance for the current World No. 1.<\/span><\/p>\n

Scheffler’s five-stroke victory has him riding a wave of confidence. His consistency, particularly on courses he’s played before, is a cause for concern for his competitors. <\/span><\/p>\n

He nearly secured a historic three-peat at the WM Phoenix Open and successfully defended his Bay Hill title. TPC Sawgrass could witness another chapter in the Scheffler saga, especially if his new mallet putter continues to be a reliable weapon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now he sets his sights on defending his 2023 Players Championship title at TPC Sawgrass, and this could be just the beginning of a Scheffler surge.<\/span><\/p>\n

After a 51-week winless drought, Scheffler’s breakthrough at Bay Hill was a powerful statement. He’s expected to be the top contender at TPC Sawgrass. <\/span><\/p>\n

This comes as no surprise considering his exceptional form over the past two years.<\/span><\/p>\n

Familiar Faces Chasing Glory<\/b><\/h3>\n

While Scheffler commands the spotlight, other past champions are ready to challenge. <\/span><\/p>\n

Rory McIlroy arrives with a question mark over his approach play despite boasting phenomenal driving. Since his emphatic comeback win at the Dubai Desert Classic, McIlroy has struggled, failing to register a top-20 finish in four events.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the Northern Irishman has had previous success at The Players Championship, emerging victorious in both 2012 and 2014.<\/p>\n

Another previous winner who is back on the hunt for glory is Justin Thomas. <\/span>He has been consistently impressive in 2024, hinting at a return to his trophy-winning form. <\/span><\/p>\n

The American started the year with a T3 at The American Express before registering T12s at both the Phoenix Open and Arnold Palmer Invitational.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rounding off the top contenders is Xander Schauffele. He is another player that has had a fine start to 2024, securing top-10 finishes in four of his six events, including a recent T4 at The Genesis Invitational.<\/p>\n

The Players Championship Betting Tips<\/b><\/h2>\n

Scottie Scheffler to win @ 6.30<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s hard to look past Scheffler. He seems to have honed in on his putting with his newfound confidence on show at Bay Hill.<\/p>\n

If he manages to put it all together at The Players Championship, there isn’t anyone in the field who can stop him.<\/p>\n

Xander Schauffele E\/W @ 19.00<\/strong><\/p>\n

NetBet Sport are paying eight places on this event and Xander looks a nice each-way pick.<\/p>\n

He has already made a T3, T4, T9 and T10 this year.<\/p>\n
