The bookmakers made Patrick Reed favourite for the Nexo Championship at 11.8/1. That is an implied 7.8% before the margin comes out, and 6.7% once the book is normalised back to 100%. On that number no player is anywhere near a standout, and the market is wide open, with Casey Jarvis next in at 16.7/1.
The five shortest players in the market share 23.7% of the win chance between them, which leaves 76.3% spread across the other 132 priced players. That is an unusually flat market. When no small group of players dominates, a model that prices the whole field has more room to disagree with the bookmakers. 104 players are priced at 100/1 or bigger.
Take the best price available on every player and the overround on this market is 10.7%, or 8.2% once the each-way terms are valued properly. The cheapest single bookmaker on this event is Betfair Exchange at 15.5% (1 @ 1/1), so taking the best price player by player is worth 4.8 points of margin before a single selection is made. We explain how the number is built in what are the bookies' margins on golf, and which books are worth having an account with in which bookie is best for golf.
Our model prices every player in the field from world ranking points, recent form and the strength of the field, then compares that price against the market. Where our number is higher than the bookmakers', there is an edge - that is the Discrepancy column in the table below. Picks are the players with the biggest edge once the each-way terms on offer are taken into account, which is why a 150/1 shot at 1/5 odds and 8 places can be a better bet than the same player at 150/1 and 5 places elsewhere.
Best available outright prices across the bookmakers we track, with the implied chance each price carries. Normalised probability removes the bookmakers' margin so the column sums to 100%.

The top of the market, with our model's win probability (Predicted) and how far it disagrees with the bookmakers (Discrepancy). The first three rows are shown in full so you can see exactly what the model produces. Odds and implied probabilities are public - the two green columns are ours.
What each bookmaker is charging on this market, and the each-way terms they are offering. True overround values the extra places properly, so it is the number to compare - the lower it is, the more the bookmaker is giving back. How we calculate it.
