PGA Best Bets: Valspar Championship Picks | Stephie Smalls Show (Ep 213)
Description
Stephie Smalls is joined by Byron Lindeque from Fantasy Golf Degenerates for a full Valspar Championship betting preview packed with PGA best bets, golf betting picks, fantasy golf angles, and DFS talk. They break down the Copperhead Course at Innisbrook, talk through key golf betting metrics like ball striking, iron play, course history, and current form, and spotlight the players they like most for this week’s PGA Tour card.
Byron and Stephie discuss Xander Schauffele’s floor, Justin Thomas top 10 value, Jordan Spieth first-round upside, and Billy Horschel’s Florida-course history. They also get into outright bets and placement markets for Austin Smotherman, Jacob Bridgeman, Ryo Hisatsune, and Davis Riley, plus first-round leader darts on Ricky Castillo, Pierceson Coody, Bud Cauley, Lee Hodges, Martin Doi, and more. If you’re looking for Valspar Championship picks, PGA Tour best bets, top 20 wagers, first-round leader plays, or longshot outrights, this episode has you covered.
They also mix in fantasy golf and DFS strategy, including players to target and golfers to avoid, with Byron fading Davis Thompson this week and Stephie sounding off on Cam Young. Plus, they touch on Masters futures and major championship betting with thoughts on Ludvig Aberg, Justin Rose, Viktor Hovland, and Xander Schauffele.
If you’re betting the Valspar Championship, building DFS lineups, or looking for golf betting insight ahead of the next PGA Tour event, this is a must-listen episode with sharp analysis, strong picks, and plenty of golf sicko energy.
