Andy Swales highlighted Ludvig Aberg as ready to take the next step towards golf greatness at THE PLAYERS Championship. Swales pointed towards Aberg's recent strong form, including a victory earlier this year on the PGA Tour. Additionally, on his debut at TPC Sawgrass last year, Aberg impressively secured an eighth-place finish. Given that conditions now favor bigger hitters (TPC Sawgrass returned to March scheduling in 2019, causing the course to play longer with over-seeded surfaces that reduce ball roll), Swales believes these circumstances align perfectly for the long-hitting Aberg to excel further this year and potentially claim a milestone victory.

Andy Swales recommended Justin Rose as a decidedly strong each-way betting opportunity for THE PLAYERS Championship. Rose arrives at TPC Sawgrass with notable recent form, registering top-10 finishes in two of his last three starts, all of which were PGA Tour Signature Events featuring elite fields. Moreover, his best career finish at TPC Sawgrass is a tie for fourth, and over the past several editions (2018-24) Rose has maintained one of the lowest stroke averages among the field at 70.63. While acknowledging Rose may not claim an outright victory in such a robust field, Swales firmly believes his consistent performance and excellent current form offer fantastic each-way value at long odds.

Andy Swales emphasized Jason Day as a player to watch closely at THE PLAYERS Championship based on his solid course history and encouraging recent form. Day won this event previously at TPC Sawgrass nine years ago and enters this week's action off of solid performances earlier in the season, notably securing a podium finish at The American Express tournament. Additionally, Day finished tied-eighth in his most recent event at Bay Hill. Given his familiarity and past success at TPC Sawgrass, combined with his recent run of good form, Swales believes Day presents promising betting and fantasy value for this prestigious event.

Andy Swales recommends Max Greyserman as an intriguing each-way option for THE PLAYERS Championship, highlighting his steady improvement on the PGA Tour. Greyserman, now in his third year on Tour, has accumulated three runner-up finishes already and will debut at TPC Sawgrass this week. Given Greyserman's upward trajectory, consistent performance, and likelihood to fly somewhat under the betting radar, Swales believes he offers real value as an each-way betting option in a deep field.

Andy Swales identifies Michael Kim as a high-upside each-way golfer to target at THE PLAYERS Championship, emphasizing Kim's impressive recent run of form. Over his past five tournaments, Kim has managed three top-six finishes, marking one of the best stretches of his career. Currently sitting at a career-best 52nd in the world rankings, Kim's recent strong play positions him as an attractive each-way bet at TPC Sawgrass, despite potentially long odds. Swales believes Kim's excellent momentum makes him a savvy betting choice this week.
