South Georgia Classic Tips: Jonathan Fricke
Home event for the former Georgia State golfer who won the Georgia Open in 2012. Playing better than recent results suggest.
When it comes to betting, it often pays to look in obscure places, as that is often where value lurks.
Jonathan Fricke is a massive 600/1 (Bet365) to win the South Georgia Classic but there are several reasons why he could.
The 32-year-old arrives on the back of four missed cuts, but he’s not been missing the weekend by many shots and only last month he finished T9 at the Brasil Champions event.
This week is a ‘home’ event for Fricke. He is a former Georgia State golfer and won the Georgia Open in 2012.
Despite a run of missed cuts Fricke sounds happy with his game according to his Twitter feed.
Really solid out there today. Gave away 4 shots over the last 4. Love the way I'm playing n thinking. Excited about getting better tomorrow

This isn’t one-eyed optimism because Fricke ranks inside the top-60 on tour for driving, putting and birdie average. He just needs to convert his good form into four solid rounds of golf. If he does, we could be in for a massive payday.
