Daniel Berger
Odds: 80/1
Berger is similar to Pieters in the fact that he's a boom-or-bust player. Here are his results in his last five 72-hole tournaments (not counting WGC-Match Play): Cut, T7, Cut, T16, Cut. And at the time of writing this, he's in contention for another Top-10 at the Shell Houston Open. Also like Pieters, Berger has an intriguing short game (18th in strokes gained putting) and has the propensity to go low, ranking ninth in birdie-or-better percentage.
The key difference between Pieters and Berger? The latter finished 10th at last year's Masters and has longer odds. As such, while both are compelling, I would go with the American if I had to choose one. (Getty)
