THE USPGA heads to Malaysia for the first week of the Asian Swing with favourite Justin Thomas eyeing a third win here. He is a justified favourite but a little skinny for any value at 5-1.
The Par 72 course measures just over 7000 yards but accuracy is the main requirement this week.
Two players I feel meet this criteria and better value are Byeong Hun An and Xander Schauffele.
An is still looking for his first win on the main tour. He finished second three times last season, twice losing in a play-off and pipped by Dustin Johnson in the other, and the Korean would be a popular winner this week.
World No.18 Schauffele had a good season last year finishing 3rd and 7th in the last two rounds of the Fed Ex. He was considered by many unlucky not to be in the Ryder Cup team and is sure to go well this week.
