This week's DP World Tour season finale - the DP World Tour Championship - hasn't been a terrific event for outsiders but we have seen two winners go off at a triple figure price in the last eight years - Matthew Fitzpatrick in 2016 and Danny Willett in 2018 - so I am going to chance my arm with one huge outsider.


Daniel Brown @ 480.0479/1

Although he hasn't won, it's been quite a season for England's Daniel Brown with his noticeable highlights all coming in the second half of the year.

He contended all week long at the Open Championship before an excellent fourth in the Irish Open and only two starts ago he finished third at the Andalucía Masters - demonstrated that he isn't just a fine links exponent.

After a bright start on Thursday at last week's Abu Dhabi Championship (four-under-par through eight holes), he lost his way badly and he even withdrew after a disastrous back-nine in round three, so there's not an insignificant amount of risk playing the 30-year-old Englishman this week but I'm happy to do so at such a huge price.

He was an impressive five-stroke winner on the DP World Tour last year, at the ISPS Handa World Invitational in Ireland and although he's never played here before, given his obvious liking for links golf, the venue should really suit him.

As highlighted in the preview, the Bermuda Championship is a fabulous tournament for longshots and we managed to snag last year's winner, Camilo Villegas at 160.0159/1 so most of my attention has been on that event this week.

Chad Ramey and Peter Malnati both came close to inclusion, but I've drawn the line at four selections, starting with the shortest priced of the quartet - Kevin Streelman.


Kevin Streelman @ 140.0139/1

There are a lot of similarities between last year's winner, Villegas, and my first fancy - Kevin Streelman - who's playing here for the first time this week.

At 46, Streelman is four years older than the Colombian so he certainly ticks the veteran box and like Villegas, Streelman has put in a decent finish recently, with a third place finish at the Black Desert Championship last months.

Villegas had finished runner-up at the World Wide Technology Championship, an event in which Streelman finished a respectable 24th last week.

The Colombian hadn't won for nine years when he took the title 12 months ago and it's now ten years since Streelman won for the second and last time on the PGA Tour, at the Travelers Championship and like Villegas, Streelman has form at a couple of events that correlate nicely with this one.

He has a couple of top four finishes in the aforementioned World Wide Technology Championship when it was staged at Mayakoba and he has a top-six finish at the RSM Classic.

With only the top-125 keeping their playing privileges and with only two events to go, sitting at 147th in the FedEx Cup Standings, Villegas needed a great week to save his card. Streelman sits 139th with two to play.

Chez Reavie @ 300.0299/1

The three-time PGA Tour winner, Chez Reavie, is another veteran making his debut this week and like Streelman, he has form at correlating courses that suggest he'll enjoy the venue.

The 43-year-old, who sits 162nd in the FedEx Cup Standings, has top four finishes at Mayakoba and Waialae (home of the Sony Open) so the track should suit him nicely.

He last won on Tour as recently as 2022, when he won the Barracuda Championship in California, holding off the man that gave Villegas the most trouble 12 months ago - Alex Noren.

Reavie is out of form at present, with a top-ten at the ISCO Championship in July the only highlight but he'd missed four of his previous eight cuts when he won the Barracuda so it's something I'm happy to overlook given his price.

Place order to lay 8 Us @ 10.09/1 and 12 Us @ 2.01/1


Tyler Duncan @ 350.0349/1

Tyler Duncan's sole success came at the RSM Classic five years ago, an event he finished third in last year, and he's also finished third twice at the Corales Puntacana Championship, so he too has form at a couple of course that correlate nicely with this one.

This is his third appearance in the event and although his form isn't spectacular, he's certainly shown promise here.

He finished 18th on debut in 2019, having sat 40th at halfway and he narrowly missed the cut here two years ago after shooting a 66 in round one.

The 35-year-old sits 173rd on the FedEx Cup Standings so he too needs to get a shift on to keep his card.

Place order to lay 8 Us @ 10.09/1 and 12 Us @ 2.01/1


Carl Yuan 450.0449/1

Thanks to a fourth-place finish here and a defection to LIV by Jon Rahm, who was removed from the rankings, Carl Yuan kept his card for this season, despite originally finishing 126th in the standings last year.

He returns to Bermuda sitting in 134th place, the exact same spot he occupied 12 months ago, so he was a very straightforward selection at a huge price.
