The PGA tour returns to singles competition this week following the USA’s success in The Presidents Cup. There aren’t many tournaments with a longer lineage than the Valero Texas Open and The Resort Course at La Cantera is a haven for low scoring. There is a lack of big names in the field but here are the players that we think you should back in this event.

STEVE FLESCH @ 16/1 WITH CORAL: Flesch is a man in form following his victory in September’s Turning Stone Resort Championship. He is a two-time winner on this years tour and should do better than his 12th place finish at La Cantera last year.

JUSTIN LEONARD @ 33/1 WITH CORAL: The two-time Texas Open winner is always a candidate for a high finish in this event. He has finished in the top-ten in five of nine attempts.

STEPHEN AMES @ 35/1 WITH CORAL: At number 42 in the Official World Golf Ranking, Ames is the highest ranked player in the field. His starting price of 35/1 represents good value.
