2022 Chevron Championship
March 31, 2022 7:15 am EDT
This week, the LPGA Tour presents the golf betting community with the 2022 Chevron Championship.
Before I discuss my favorite golf bets for the first major championship on the LPGA Tour schedule let’s take a look at the golf course the field will play and review the key player statistics that I think are the most vital to success at this week’s 2022 Chevron Championship.
The 2022 Chevron Championship will be played at the Mission Hills Country Club (Dinah Shore Tournament Course) in Rancho Mirage, California. The Dinah Shore Tournament Course is a par 72 that measures 6,780 yards. Water is in play on four holes. Additionally, 73 bunkers are strategically placed throughout the golf course. The 18th hole is a 646 yard par five that always seems to play a significant role in determining the eventual champion of the Chevron Championship each and every year.
The key player statistics that I will be focusing on this week are: driving accuracy, GIR (greens in regulation), scrambling, and putts per GIR.
Now let’s shift our focus to my favorite golf bets for the 2022 Chevron Championship!
Here is a golfer to consider placing on your card to finish in the top five.
Brooke Henderson +350
The talented Canadian has accumulated five consecutive top 11 finishes on the LPGA Tour, including a sixth place result at the 2022 Gainbridge @ Boca Rio in January.
Brooke Henderson is currently ranked ninth in driving distance (272.3 yards), third in putts per GIR (1.64), third in total birdies made (96), and second in scoring average (68.47%) on the LPGA Tour.
Brooke Henderson finished second at the 2020 Chevron Championship.

Xiyu Lin +200
The 26 year old arrives at this week’s LPGA Tour event in rather good form. More specifically, Lin has accumulated four consecutive top 16 finishes on the LPGA Tour, including a second place result at the 2022 Honda LPGA Thailand two weeks ago.
Xiyu Lin also checks the box for me when it comes to key player statistics. Xiyu Lin is currently ranked ninth in GIR (greens in regulation-77.78%), fifth in putts per GIR (1.68), fourth in total birdies made (94), and eighth in scoring average (69.00%) on the LPGA Tour.
Alison Lee +850
The 27 year old American has accumulated two consecutive top 23 finishes on the LPGA Tour, including a 12th place result at the 2022 Honda LPGA Thialand.
Alison Lee finished 27th at the 2017 Chevron Championship.
