The PLAYERS Championship 2020: 10 dark horse golfers who can win

2. Joel Dahmen (+13000)

When you look at the odds for Joel Dahmen and then look at how he’s been playing, it honestly feels as if the oddsmakers just haven’t been paying attention. After all, this is a player who has two consecutive fifth-place finishes in loaded fields (The Genesis and the Arnold Palmer) to his credit, which followed a 14th-place finish at Pebble Beach. And overall on the year, he has four top-10s and two additional top-15 showings.

Dahmen has been great both off the tee and with his driver this season, ranking in the top 25 in both Strokes Gained categories this season. The one Achilles heel he’s displayed has been an inconsistent putter, though it hasn’t been as bad as An’s. Having said that, he’s putted well in his last two tournaments and, if he can maintain that at Ponte Verde Beach this week, he’s playing well enough overall to really make some noise.

1. Kevin Na (+9000)

Having three top-10 finishes at The PLAYERS Championship on his résumé, it’s safe to assume that Kevin Na is both familiar with TPC Sawgrass and likes playing this course as well. But on top of that, he’s been playing quietly well this season, albeit with some bouts with up-and-down performances.

At the peaks of his 2019-20 season, however, Na won at the Shriners back in early October and finished ninth at the WGC-Mexico Championship while also registering three other top-20 finishes throughout the past few months.

Na is a player who somewhat contrasts other guys on this list in that his greatest strength is his putting and play around the greens. However, with his iron play really coming into form this year, this could be the time he finally gets over the hump and tops the leaderboard at The PLAYERS.
