Bank of Utah Championship is 7,421 yards, but altitude makes it play like 6,900.
1. Golf Betting System Podcast episode 375 covers the 2025 Bank of Utah Championship and Genesis Championship betting previews. 2. Steve Bamford hosts Barry O'Hanrahan and Paul Williams, and Paul’s stats work matters because he brings the course and player data. 3. The episode exists to turn PGA Tour and DP World Tour rankings, course fit, and price points into bets. 4. The hosts revisit last week’s India event and say Tommy Fleetwood won on Sunday. 5. They also note Data Golf rankings with Scottie Scheffler at one, Tommy Fleetwood at two, Jon Rahm at three, Rory McIlroy at four, and Russell Henley at five. 6. The ranking talk moves into the world top 50, with John Keefer sneaking into 50 and top-50 relevance for Masters invites. 7. On the PGA Tour side, they explain the FedEx Cup Fall race and the split between full cards and conditional status. 8. The conversation names players on the bubble such as Max Holm, Victor Perez, Adam Schenk, Justin Lower, Taylor Montgomery, and Seamus Power. 9. They then shift to Black Desert Resort in Utah and call it a Tom Weiskopf design with very wide fairways and black lava framing the holes. 10. Steve says the course is 7,421 yards, plays at 3,100 feet above sea level, and should behave more like a 6,900-yard par 71. 11. He adds that the forecast looks cooler than last year, with 22 to 25 Celsius and possible 20 to 25 mile-an-hour gusts on Saturday. 12. Steve and Barry also say scoring may be closer to 18 or 19 under par than Matt McCarty’s winning 23 under last year. 13. The betting case for Alex Noren rests on two DP World Tour wins this year and both coming on bent or bent-pure greens. 14. Steve links Noren’s win profile to the 007XL bentgrass at Black Desert Resort and takes 16-to-1 with William Hill. 15. Barry’s selection is Takumi Kanaya, framed by recent Japan Tour form and a pattern of strong play in September and October. 16. Steve’s second pick is William Mao, whose ISCO Championship win came with a final-round 61 and whose college and amateur background fits Western U.S. altitude tracks. 17. Steve’s third pick is Max McGreevy, supported by his Dunlop Phoenix win in Japan, his 12th at the Japan Open, and his history of strong bentgrass putting. 18. Paul’s main remaining pick is Taylor Montgomery at 70-to-1, backed by his strong putting numbers and his past results in Utah. 19. The episode is conversational, data-heavy, and filled with quick back-and-forth disagreement about rankings, course fit, and market prices. 20. Listeners who follow golf betting previews and course-fit stats will get the most from this episode, while casual golf fans who want tournament storytelling may skip it.
