A final round collapse last year shouldn't hinder Watney this week
Odds: [36.0]

Another big-hitting rising American star with mixed memories of last year's renewal at Whistling Straits. Watney took a three-shot lead into the final round, yet crumbled under pressure and missed the top-ten after a catastrophic 81. Happily, any doubts about his temperament have been since put to bed by wins at Doral and Aronimink, and Watney currently leads the Fedex Cup standings. The key to his chance lies with the putter, which was red-hot for both of those recent wins.
