In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy previews the 2026 Valero Texas Open at TPC San Antonio for betting and DFS, recapping a tough Houston Open week and briefly addressing the Tiger Woods driving controversy and the social media reaction it generated. He breaks down the key course setup change this year, rough grown out more than usual, which could increase the penalty for missing fairways and make distance more valuable than it has been historically at this track. He outlines the important factors to target, including wind, difficult par-5s, and scrambling and bunker play, and notes a strong course-history correlation to keep in mind. He highlights early model standouts led by Alex Noren and Jordan Spieth, with his only bet so far being Ryo Hisatsune at 53-1 and additional interest in Hideki Matsuyama, Tommy Fleetwood, and Keith Mitchell. He closes with brief Masters notes, flagging Rahm and Bryson at 12-1 as names to watch.
