TSZ TIPS

RORY MCILROY

  • Rory McIlroy opted to sit out last week’s Match Play so should be focused and refreshed for this Valero Texas Open and the Northern Irishman will be desperate to produce a good performance in preparation of a tilt at the Masters.
  • McIlroy has not really challenged since claiming the CJ Cup and while he has not been too far away with three top 20 finishes, he has the game to be right in the mix in what is a relatively low-key field.

TIP: Winner e/w (17/2)

ABRAHAM ANCER

  • Abraham Ancer has one PGA Tour success to his name and a second does not appear to be out of his reach in this event with the Mexican showing what he can do when reaching the quarter-finals of last week’s Match Play.
  • Ancer’s game looks suited to this course with him doing a decent job in this event last year when finishing in the top 25 and he can build on last week’s efforts to at least finish in the places this time around.

TIP: Winner e/w (22/1)
