Jessica Marksbury circled Max Homa at +8000 despite a rough 2025 campaign, reminding bettors he owns a 2019 Wells Fargo trophy and back-to-back T8s at Quail. She added Homa’s lone 2025 bright spot — a T12 at Augusta — proves the major stage still suits him. On a layout that historically unlocks his ball-striking, she believes Homa can shake the funk and outperform his long odds.

Jessica Marksbury also hit the Scheffler drum at +500, noting his wire-to-wire win in Texas two weeks ago and a built-in rest week that leaves him physically and mentally recharged. She envisions a Sunday duel with Rory McIlroy but trusts Scheffler’s current form — highlighted by top-three strokes-gained figures tee-to-green in his last three starts — to secure his third major.

Jessica Marksbury doubled down on Max Homa at the same +8000 price. While she conceded the Californian’s season has been "admittedly tough," a T12 at Augusta was a welcome sign. More importantly, Quail Hollow has been Homa’s personal playground: a 2019 Wells Fargo win followed by back-to-back T8 finishes the last two years. Marksbury contends that if any venue can shake Homa from his funk, it is this one, making him an enticing outright and each-way ticket.

Jessica Marksbury predicted Scottie Scheffler wins at +500, envisioning a possible Sunday duel with Rory McIlroy but ultimately siding with the refreshed World No.1. Scheffler is coming off a big win in Texas and enjoyed a full week of rest. Marksbury thinks that combination of form and recovery makes him the man to beat as he seeks to reset his major tally at Quail Hollow.

Jessica Marksbury sees strong value in Shane Lowry (+4000) for THE PLAYERS Championship despite no finishes better than 8th in his previous 10 appearances at TPC Sawgrass. Marksbury cites Lowry's quality recent form, finishing T11 at the Cognizant and 7th at Bay Hill, along with his affinity for Florida golf courses as key factors for why she expects him to finally contend this year. Additionally, she mentioned that not being the outright favorite should help Lowry play with greater freedom than other players facing higher expectations.
