It's experience.

The 2025 Bay Current Classic Picks and Betts, quick version because this starts Wednesday evening at 5.45 p.m. Eastern Time. So the shelf life of this isn't going to be long. So I'm going to hit you with the bets that I got in right now. I got four of them. Alex Noron, 25 to 1. He's won twice in his past three starts over in Europe. That's not going to be reflected in a lot of the data that you see.

He has four top tens in his past five starts overall. And we dig into the course just a little bit later on. It is treeline, big fairways, but if it's more treeline, then huge fairways, and it does play a little bit more difficult in that sense. that it's not just bomb and gouge the entire time,

like you would see it's something like TPC Toronto or Byron Nelson.

It's a bit trickier, more difficult in that sense, that it's not just bomb and gouge the entire time, like you would

see it's something like TPC Toronto or Byron Nelson.

It's a bit trickier than that over in Japan.

Alex Norn continues the hot streak.

Might pick up his first ever PGA Tour win, 25 to 1 pretty good odds as well.

Michael Kim, if you missed the interview with Michael Kim on the show earlier this week, shame on you.

It is up on the audio and video feed Mayo Media Network and Pat Mayo Experience right now. Give me your winner, or at least all of your bets down in the description. I'm looking to add a few more here. I only got four. Michael Kim's 40 to 1. Wide fairways, as he pointed out on that show, that he's not the straightest hitter of the ball. So this could be better for him allowing you to miss. There are trees around this course that if you get them to those, you're pretty screwed, but that's no different than like Colonial or John Deere Classic even, for that matter, TPC Deer Run, that if you're too far off on almost any course, you're going to be absolutely screwed. Exceptston hit it wherever you want there even if you're on the inside the tree still easy shout out he just won in france a he's minute quality well i said wide fairways strong wedge play and quality putting on slow greens that's kind of the michael kim combo so that's what we're seeing over in japan new course in japan this year too. So it's the Oklahoma Country Club, not where they've played at each of the past five years. So keep that in mind when you're going through the past research and everything at this course. So he's 40 to 1. Matt McCarty is 65 to 1. Although the course isn't unknown, the widening of the fairway should turn this into like a wedge in putting

competition, something I really like for Matt McCarty. It's something that he parlayed into a bunch

of wins on the Corn Ferry Tour before he ended up coming out and instantly into a win on the

PGA tour last season that if he can continue that forward momentum, he's just someone who can

kind of spike with his irons and putting all at the same time at an unknown course. I like him back at 65 to 1. And then Austin Eckrode. He wins like every six months anyway. He actually made a few putts last time out in Napa as well. If he keeps that up, that's been a winning formula for him on tour. He's won at weird courses. He's won at PGA National, and he's won at Los Cabo.

So irons and putting, that's really going to be where I'm looking at this week, avoiding much of the very top end, because I just don't know that much about Yokohama Country Club. I like where these guys are at right now. I like their baseline skill sets. So those four are where I'm going. If you want to know a little bit about the course,

as I mentioned, Yokohama Country Club, 7,315 yards, the par 71, bent grass greens, expected to play incredibly slow. Additionally, Zoiza Fairways. I played some Zoisa down in Memphis when I was there.

Man, can you spin the ball off Zoiza? I don't spin the ball all that well, but I went and bought a pair of Vokies afterwards because that was a part of my rental set. I was like, wow, I can just hit it next to the hole. It's going to stop every single time. For DFS purposes, it's worth noting this is a no-cut event. There's only 78 players in the field, and the bottom end is littered with Japanese tour players. Not everyone is a PGA

tour regular. So let's jump over to the rabbit hole. That's wheretsgolf.com slash mayo. Get yourself
