EVENT: Farmers Insurance Open (Wednesday-Saturday)

WHY WE’LL WATCH: Watching golf on a Wednesday feels like we’re cutting class. Which was – sorry, mom – a good time. Jon Rahm is favored to win his third consecutive PGA Tour event, which has happened just 18 times since 1997. (Tiger Woods accounts for 14.)

COURSE INFO: Those making the cut will play the South three times and the North once at famed Torrey Pines, which hosted the 2021 US Open. The South is longer with smaller greens and movement on 13 of 14 tee shots. The North has the beefier par-3s.

THE FAVES: Rahm (+450), Xander Schauffele (+900) and Tony Finau (+1o00) opened as favorites.

BET TO CONSIDER: Finau (+185) to beat Rahm (+115) and Justin Thomas (+250) in 3 Ball (Round 1, 1:40 p.m. ET): Threesomes don’t get much hotter than this. We’ll tap Finau, who has four top-10s in eight Farmer starts. CHECK THE LIVE ODDS!

• Eagles +475 ➡️ +250: The NFL’s best total defense smothered the Giants, allowing just 227 total yards.
• Chiefs +325 ➡️ +260: A healthy Patrick Mahomes would make KC the Super Bowl faves.
• Bengals +800 ➡️ +260: Cincy went three decades without a Super Bowl appearance, but Joe Cool & Co. are positioned for B2B appearances.
• 49ers +500 ➡️ +325: SF ranks top-5 in yards per play on both sides of the ball despite having a third-string rookie QB running the show. Purdy good.

Who will rise Down Under?

MEN

• Novak Djokovic (-455): The Serbinator looks destined to win his 22^nd grand slam, which would tie him with Rafa Nadal for most ever.
• Stefanos Tsitsipas (+400): The Greek God has dropped a mere two sets the entire tourney.
• Karen Khachanov (+1600): His serve is massive but his 0-5 record against next foe Tsitsipas is concerning.
• Tommy Paul (+2500): U-S-A! U-S-A! The world’s 35^th ranked player is +1000 to beat Djokovic tomorrow. The game spread is 8.5.

WOMEN

• Aryna Sabalenka (+125):  The “Warrior Princess” has not dropped a set.
• Elena Rybakina (+150): The ace server won Wimbledon.
• Victoria Azarenka (+450): It’s no backhanded compliment to say her forehand is her best stroke. A +165 underdog to Rybakina in the semis.
• Magda Linette (+1200): The world’s No. 45 has beaten four seeded players.

PointsBet sports analyst Mike Korn breaks down the AFC title game: (Bengals -1 @ Chiefs):

“We opened KC -1.5, and this line has moved like a roller coaster. We took so much sharp action on the Bengals, they become the favorite and got out to -2 Monday afternoon. The movement is mainly tied to concerns over Patrick Mahomes’ ankle. More than 77% of the spread handle we’ve taken is on Cincy.”
