Widths (yards): Below are the fairway widths for Detroit Golf Club and how they compare to recent courses on Tour: Scoring wise its lack of length and receptive greens leads to very low scoring.ĭetroit Golf Club, Detroit, Michigan: Designer: Donald Ross 1916 Course Type: Classical, Resort Par: 72 Length: 7,370 yards Holes with Water Hazards: 1 Fairways: Bentgrass with Poa Annua Rough: Bluegrass mix 4″ Greens: 5,150 sq.ft average featuring Poa Annua with Bentgrass Tournament Stimp: 10.5ft. As per Donald Ross design classics, Detroit features uneven fairway lies, and plenty of front-to-back contoured and multi-layered undulations within green complexes. An old-style, tree-lined layout, the course received positive reviews since it made its PGA Tour debut in 2019. It’s a Par 72 test at 7,370 yards, which features the standard breakdown of 4 par-3s, 10-par-4s and 4 par-5s. Both are Donald Ross original courses, which feature his classic architecture, with this week’s championship holes having seen phased modernisation and construction preparation since 2014. An historic club established in 1899, we are dealing with a hybrid of 2 courses this week, namely the North (17 holes) and South (3rd hole) course.

They are now a must have for golf punters who want maximum each-way return opportunities. Rocket Mortgage Classic – Featured Bookmaker:īoylesports are leading the way for this week’s Rocket Mortgage Classic, and across PGA Tour in general, offering a generous 10 places each-way at 1/5 odds.
Players in this week’s field include Quicken-sponsored Rickie Fowler plus Patrick Cantlay, Will Zalatoris, Tony Finau, Cameron Young, Max Homa and Kevin Kisner.
Sponsorship comes in the form of Quicken’s online Rocket Mortgage brand. Undoubtedly Quicken Loans were the driving force behind the PGA Tour arriving in ‘ Motor City’ and the Detroit Golf Club will host this tournament through till 2026 at the very least. This is the fourth Rocket Mortgage Classic with the 3 renewals so far won by Nate Lashley, Bryson DeChambeau and Cam Davis. I landed a 110/1 each-way return on Callum Tarren, so not too bad all-in-all. It was his 3rd PGA Tour victory and he jumped into the top 7 for Team USA in President’s Cup qualification. Backing Tony Finau as a favourite was too much of a stretch for me, but with 4 top-13 finishes from his past 5 domestic PGA Tour appearances, he shows that he has mastered run-of-the-mill Tour events. Congratulations if you were on-board 3M Open favourite Tony Finau at a Monday best price of 14/1 with William Hill.
