One surprise: Nejad is fading Scheffler. As the favorite in the Travelers Championship with +360 odds, Scheffler is in the midst of one of the best seasons in PGA Tour history. He has won five times this year; no one else has won more than one non-team event.
But Scheffler played unusually last week at the US Open. He only made a total of four birdies in four rounds, ranking him 71st on the field. “He kind of missed the mark last week at Pinehurst and he doesn’t bring any value at the number,” Nejad told SportsLine.
However, Nejad is more likely to meet Swedish Ludvig Aberg, who has +1200 odds in the Travelers Championship. The 24-year-old rising star has 2 seconds and 6 top 10 finishes in 13 events this season. He is coming off a 12th-place finish at the US Open, where he is in contention to reach the final round on Sunday.
Nejad likes that Aberg has a well-rounded game to win this week. Aberg ranks fifth on the PGA Tour in strokes gained: total (+1,316). “Aberg has been drawn to attacking the ball and while he can bomb it off the tee, he has shown a preference for shorter tracks like River,” Nejad told SportsLine.
