Ellie Mae Classic Tips: Trey Mullinax
Finished one shot outside of a playoff last year and has an almost identical game to past winner Tony Finau.
Recent winners of the Stonebrae Classic have gone onto have an impact on the PGA Tour with both Tony Finau and Si Woo Kim enjoy success at a higher grade.
The player most likely to make a successful transition from Web to PGA Tour is Trey Mullinax and he should be backed to win this week.
Last year I tipped him in this event at 80/1 and although those prices are long gone the course sets up beautifully for his game.
Last year he finished one shot outside a playoff, bogeying 17 and not being able to make birdie on the final home and it felt like one that got away.
Like Tony Finau he is a massive hitter (fifth in driving distance) and can putt (third in putting average) and that is all you need at TPC Stonebrae.
