The golfer, who has won the previous two tournaments, will be eyeing a third consecutive victory. This might seem to be a behemoth task but it is possible. He will begin his Fortinet Championship title defense behind the pairing of Kevin Chappell, Will Gordon and Tyson Alexander at 10:17 am.

Max Homa’s trio will be followed by the pairing of Kevin Kisner, Webb Simpson and Matt Kuchar at 10:39 am. Needless to say, the Fortinet Championship has a stacked field. However, Homa still comes into the event as the favorite.

According to SportsLine, the 32-year-old PGA Tour star has +750 odds coming into the Fortinet Championship weekend. He leads the odds list and is followed by Justin Thomas (+1400) and Shaith Theegala (+2000). It’ll be interesting to see how the golfer finishes on the $8,400,000 prized event’s final leaderboard.
