Golf best bets: Rain will reign at the Wyndham

The PGA Tour makes its final stop of the regular season this week at Sedgefield Country Club for the Wyndham Championship. It's going to be a rainy weekend in Greensboro, N.C., but soft conditions will actually help some players score on this short golf course.

With Round 1 of the Wyndham Championship set to begin (hopefully) on Thursday morning, let's target a two-pack of score props on established veterans.

Lucas Glover Round 1 score under 69.5 (-120 FanDuel )

Glover missed the cut at the Genesis Scottish Open and the British Open in his last two starts, but a return to Sedgefield might be just what he needs to get back on track. The 44-year-old won the Wyndham Championship last year with rounds of 66, 64, 62 and 68. He also had the second-best putting week of the entire season that week, so he clearly loves these Bermuda greens.

Sedgefield has been kind to older, shorter hitters over the years because it emphasizes accuracy over length, and that's exactly how Glover will attack this golf course again.

Shane Lowry Round 1 score under 68.5 (-110 FD )

Stormy conditions are no problem for Lowry, who went low in three of his four rounds at the British Open through high winds and rain. The Irishman is extremely accurate from off the tee and is one of the best iron players on the PGA Tour. He's going to keep the ball in the fairway and attack pins with the soft greens at Sedgefield, so we just need a decent putting day for him to go under this line.
