The first round of the BMW Championship was suspended for three hours, but play eventually resumed with Keegan Bradley ($7,000; 57 FPTS) finishing atop the leaderboard.
It was an unblemished round for Bradley, as he notched three birdies on both the front and back nines.
In the $800K Summer Sand Trap tournament, Bradley is rostered on only 6.36% of teams. DK Sportsbook currently has Bradley at +1200 to win it all, the third-lowest odds in the field.
There are two golfers rostered on over 30% of teams: Xander Schauffele ($11,100; 28 FPTS) and Scottie Scheffler ($12,300; 20.5 FPTS).
Schauffele is three strokes back of the lead after shooting a three-under 69. He had two birdies on the front nine and two on the back nine. Unfortunately, he bogeyed Hole 13. DK Sportsbook has Schauffele as the favorite to win it all at +400.
Scheffler shot a one-under 71 on Thursday. He parred every hole on the front nine but had some difficulty on the back nine. He birdied Holes 11, 12, and 14 but bogeyed Holes 13 and 15. DK Sportsbook has Scheffler with the second-lowest odds to win it all at +550.
