Two rounds into the 2024 Players Championship, a clear favorite has emerged, and yes, Wyndham Clark will be tough to beat. But if you're looking to cash in down the board, we have an idea.

Nick Taylor stands out as a high-value live bet with +1400 odds. Why Taylor? Our model likes his impressive +2.82 strokes gained approach (SG: APP) so far this week. That particular stat is crucial at Sawgrass, a course that demands precision on approach shots to navigate its challenging greens and avoid its water hazards. 

Taylor’s excellence in this area suggests he's on his game and ready to handle all of it. He also won the Waste Management Phoenix Open in February, so he's familiar with closing out titles. 

His odds reflect a potent mix of current form and statistical strength, offering bettors a solid value proposition. Taylor’s remarkable approach game, essential for tackling TPC Sawgrass’s intricacies, positions him as a strong contender. In short, we like those odds.
