Past tournaments saw lower scores due to the course's toughness. Player Analysis - Xander Schauffele: Schauffele has strong ties to Japan, having visited family there before the tournament. Despite his impressive form, Doctor passes on betting due to the high odds. Player Analysis - Collin Morikawa: As the defending champion, Morikawa is expected to play well, but his 8:1 odds are seen as too low for a bet. Doctor would prefer better odds for higher returns. Hideki Matsuyama: A two-time PGA Tour winner this season, Matsuyama is another strong contender but is passed over due to unsatisfactory odds. His historical results at Narashino are mixed, with both high and low finishes. Justin Thomas: Thomas, known for his success in Asia, has struggled with driving and putting in 2024. He has made improvements to his driver, but Doctor avoids betting on him due to recent form and high odds. Betting and Matchups: Doctor discusses his top betting picks, including a focus on K.H. Lee and Takumi Kanaya for favorable matchups. He also places bets on Bo Hosler to finish in the top 20. Predictions and Final Thoughts: Doctor predicts a winning score of 17 under par if rain softens the course. He concludes with his best bet for the tournament, J.J. Spahn over Tom Hoagie, and previews the Genesis Championship in South Korea. For more on the world of golf, follow Doc on X @drmedia59  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
