Event Details
Event: LECOM Health Challenge
Category: Web.com Tour
Date: July 5th-8th, 2018
Location: Peek’n Peak Resort, Findley Lake, New York
Past Winners
2017: Chesson Hadley
2016: Rick Lamb
Sungjae Im
Im has yet to concede the top spot on the Web.com money list in any week this season and it’s unlikely to change this week. Im has all of the tools to contend for the outright win. Can he put it all together and deliver? He’s among the favorites for a reason and should be a smart bet.
Scott Langley
Langley is coming off another top-five finish at last week’s Lincoln Land Championship presented by LRS. He has been extremely consistent this season and he now sits less than $30,000 behind Im on the overall money list. He’s available at decent odds in the outright winner column and should be a strong pick to finish in the top-five.
Anders Albertson
Albertson finished on a high note last week when he fired a 63 on Sunday to provide some hope for his betting stock in New York this week. Albertson finished in the top-10 at this tournament a year ago and should have no problem getting back there again. The question now is whether or not he can best that performance and win this event outright. At decent odds, he is worth taking a chance on this week.
Adam Long
Long appears on the verge of a major breakthrough. 15 of his last 16 rounds have been under 72, including last week when he shot 23-under-par to finish T-2nd. Long should be able to carry over the momentum from that strong performance with another one in Findley Lake. Expect Long to contend for the outright win this week.
Joseph Bramlett
Bramlett is the leader in scoring average on the Web.com Tour this season with an overall average of 69.27. His last seven finishes include two in the top-10 and another three in the top-16. Bramlett should be a safe pick to finish in the top-10 once again this week. However, he needs to do a better job of closing out tournaments if he is going to start being considered a legitimate contender to win every single week.
Kevin Stadler
Stadler is interesting for a number of reasons. First, he is a former champion here. Second, he posted a top-25 finish in his first and only even this season. Finally, the fact that he was injured means a lot of people are overlooking him this week, which should help his stock. Stadler is an intriguing sleeper pick to win this week.
Rick Lamb
Lamb hasn’t been able to put it all together on the PGA Tour this season but he can’t be overlooked on the Web.com Tour this week. Lamb is another former champion at this event and he’s also made six of eight cuts on the Web.com Tour this season including a T-5th finish last week. His good form combined with his course history make him a strong sports betting pick to win outright this week.
Roland Thatcher
Thatcher is the final former champion we are looking at as a betting option to win this week. He hasn’t won here since 2007 but the fact that he is very familiar at this course should help give him an edge. He hasn’t been the most consistent golfer on the Web.com Tour this season. However, Thatcher does hold some sneaky value as a sleeper pick to contend at the LECOM Health Challenge this week.
