Rick Gehman identified J.T. Poston as an appealing outright bet at 45 to 1 for the Valspar Championship due to recent promising signs with his putting. Poston, historically one of the PGA Tour's best putters, went through a troubling stretch losing 30 strokes putting across seven events, severely diminishing his results. Gehman pinpointed Poston's encouraging T33 finish at The Players Championship, driven by better putting, as potentially signaling a turnaround. He drew parallels between Valspar and courses like Sedgefield, where Poston has previously performed very well and even won. Gehman sees Poston as perfectly priced for a breakthrough week, making him an optimal betting choice if his putting is indeed back.
