The FedExCup Fall shifts to the international scene for the next four events. Defending champion Xander Schauffele (+800) is the DraftKings Sportsbook betting favorite at Yokohama Country Club in Japan for the second edition of the Baycurrent Classic at this venue. DraftKings is the place to shop markets outside of the outright favorite in the field of 72 players. Letโs dive in!

Michael Thorbjornsen (+2100) heads across the Pacific Ocean to make another run at the Baycurrent Classic. Already a winner this season at the Rocket Classic in Detroit, he returns to Yokohama where he shared third place in 2025. The 25-year-old posted 66-64 in the final two rounds but could not catch Schauffele. The excellent tee-to-green player ranked second in Greens in Regulation at Yokohama last year and also circled three eagles.
Without a 36-hole cut in play, Sahith Theegala (+9600) will extend his streak of making the cut to 17 consecutive events, the fourth-longest streak on the PGA Tour. He has no problem making Par Breakers (No. 2 in eagles; No. 11 in birdies in 2026), but he has not hit the top 10 since March (T10 Texas Childrenโs Houston Open). Making his first start of the FedExCup Fall, Theegala arrives in Japan for the fifth consecutive year. I will remind you that his only Tour victory came in the fall of 2023. At almost +10000, Iโm hooked.
Greyserman made his debut at this event in 2024 and finished second to Nico Echavarria. The 2025 event moved to Yokohama Country Club, and he finished second again, this time to Schauffele. His 37-under aggregate across eight rounds is evidence he enjoys golf in Japan. For those concerned about his missed cut last week at the Bank of Utah Championship, I will remind you he posted 70-67 (-5) and missed the cut by a shot. He also cashed T10 in the first FedExCup Fall event in North Carolina.
Remember, you can play these as singles or parlay them in any combination you choose!
Former champion Hideki Matsuyama (2021) and Ryo Hisatsune are fresh off plenty of reps in the Presidents Cup. Takumi Kanaya squared only three bogeys last week at the Bank of Utah Championship and hit the top five (T4) here in 2025. Keita Nakajima has made the cut just four times in his last eight starts. All four results are T23 or better and include a pair of top 5 paydays. There is no 36-hole cut this week.
This market features only 10 players at plus-money, but based on event and course history, one stands out. Ranked No. 3 on the JGTO money list, Yonezawa won earlier this season and has produced back-to-back top-25 paydays at this event over the previous two seasons. He played his final 54 holes at Yokohama Country Club in 10 under in 2025 and cashed T20. His 65 in Round 3 was the lowest round of the day. In the 2024 edition at Accordia Golf Narashino Country Club, he cashed T22.
On paper, this looks inviting, but please remember there are only three par-3 holes on the card and only 72 players in the field. The front nine has two opportunities (No. 3 plays 168 yards; No. 7 plays 182), while the inward nine has only one opportunity, a 237-yard monster (No. 16).
