Rick previews the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am from an airport, using odds instead of salaries because he'll be at 30,000 feet when DraftKings releases them.
Rick Gehman hosts this episode of RickRunGood, focusing on the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. He starts by noting he's recording from Florida while traveling, unable to wait for DraftKings salaries to be released, so he uses odds as a reference instead. The episode will cover salaries, game theory, and projected ownership in a Wednesday live chat. Pebble Beach is now a signature event, meaning four guaranteed rounds and a smaller, stronger field. The course is described as very unique among PGA Tour venues, playing under 7,000 yards with tiny poa greens that can be exposed to wind. Rick emphasizes that players don't need to overpower the course; accuracy and fairway play are more important. He advises focusing on hitting greens or getting up and down for par due to the small green sizes. From a statistical standpoint, he notes that Pebble Beach requires a heavy emphasis on putting and around-the-green stats. Save percentage is highlighted as the highest-ranked stat for this course. The episode sets up further analysis for fantasy golf picks and sleepers. Rick's approach blends course characteristics with data-driven insights. The tone is educational and focused on actionable advice for listeners. He plans to delve deeper into correlated stats in subsequent segments. The preview aims to help listeners make smarter betting and DFS decisions. Overall, it's a concise, data-oriented breakdown of a key golf tournament.
