Kenny Kim called Brandt Snedeker the best lottery ticket in the ultra-cheap $6K range, highlighting that Snedeker gained 5.5 strokes on approach at last week’s John Deere Classic—his best iron week since 2018. The veteran already owns two top-10 finishes this year, proving the rebuilt hip can hold up for four rounds. Renaissance Club does not demand brute distance, letting Sneds lean on his elite wedge game and historically streaky putter that ranks fourth in strokes gained putting on fescue since 2015. At $6,200, Kim sees minimal downside: if the putter heats up, Snedeker can cruise through the cut and free salary to jam two elite studs up top. Kim will sprinkle top-40 tickets at +220 and use Sneds as a cash-game punt when weather forecasts indicate a low-wind birdie fest.
