It's all about ball striking and hitting those fairways and greens as the Bear Trap lurks at PGA national for the Honda Classic
2020 Honda Classic Tips Guide
Honda Classic target player proflie:
Top ball striker who can shape it both ways and fly it using the wind to advantage. Hits a lot of fairways and greens and can grind out the pars. Good with the longer irons an advantage. Less than driver will be used a lot on angled tee shots in crosswinds.
The course - PGA National championship course, 7,125 yards, par 70
Key features: Welcome return to Bermuda greens, some kidney shaped 3 pronged with tucked / protected pins on firm greens. Greens were made 25% bigger last year and measure circa 7,000 square feet now. Usually Deep spinach off fairways and around greens. Some runoffs. Water everywhere. Bear Trap will cause the usual chaos down the stretch.
Premium on: Ball striking: Bogey Avoidance, wind play, driving accuracy - must play from the short grass here to have any chance of attacking pins
Chicken nuggets: for the Honda Classic
Ryan Palmer likened hitting it in the rough here off the tee to an auto 1 shot penalty (some years). Even when rough is down a little like in 2019, you still can't attack protected pin positions on firm greens. Palmer carded a final round -7 in toughest of conditions of the week on day 4 in 2019
Rickie Fowler is a local who loves the track. Holed 57/57 putts from inside 7ft on the Bermuda en route to winning in 2017. FAVOURITE.

"Had the pleasure of on course commentating @TheHondaClassic
Finally saw accuracy rewarded. 7100 yards, Rough was only 2.5 inches, greens were relatively small and firm and it took an exceptional shot to have a birdie look from off fairway. Perfect set up, great event" - Gary christian 2019

Gary woodland 25/1 EW is the player that shows up on all key stats this week and he's coming here off a decent performance where he was in contention after 54 holes in Mexico. One of the best ball strikers in the game as he showed when winning the US Open at Pebble Beach last year, Woodland owns some decent form at Honda including a runner up finish in 2017.

Ryan Palmer 66/1 EW is one I'd put in the #Simmering category right now. He had a bad r3 at the Genesis but decent r4 to get it out of the system. I always love Ryan Palmer here and if you see above it will give you a clue. Basically he knows the track more than most and owns a great record here including a 2nd and 4th place. Results are a little deceptive though as he's challenged strongly here on many occasions and been amongst the leaders after certain rounds. He actually has the unwanted record of most balls in the water at the Bear trap in recent times which may have had his results looking even better if avoided. Palmer is one of the best wind players in the game as he showed again here with that -7 in round 4 last year. He is a perfect fit for PGA National.
