Derek Farnsworth advised against playing Cameron Young at the Arnold Palmer Invitational due to his poor recent approach numbers and missed cuts. Young has lost at least two strokes on approach in seven of his last eight events, including negative 2.2 strokes last week. Farnsworth noted that he is not willing to continue chasing Young in his lineups given his low floor compared to other players in the field.

Derek Farnsworth advised betting on Cameron Young to finish in the top 10 at +700 odds for the Arnold Palmer Invitational. He highlighted Young's high-variance performance style, noting that he tends to either play exceptionally well or poorly, with little in between. Farnsworth considered the +700 odds to be excellent value in a 70-golfer field, given Young's potential to excel on courses that emphasize total driving—a combination of distance and accuracy off the tee. He mentioned that this course setup suits Young's strengths, making him a strong candidate for a high finish.

Derek Farnsworth suggested a top-10 bet on Cameron Young at +700 after he missed the cut last week when heavily touted. Farnsworth emphasized Young’s elite ball-striking skill set—specifically off the tee and on approach—and pointed out that he’s contended in multiple majors. Young has two top-15 finishes in three appearances at Bay Hill, and Farnsworth expects his power and wedge play to translate into a strong showing in this limited-field event.

Jason Rouslin advised against playing Cameron Young this week, citing his poor recent form despite his evident talent. Rouslin noted that Young ranks 71st in approach in this field and is not currently playing at his usual high level. With better-performing options available, Rouslin recommends avoiding Young in DFS lineups until his form improves.

Pat Mayo advised against selecting Cameron Young for the 2025 Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill, expressing concerns about his course fit and expected struggles with water hazards. Mayo humorously remarked, "can't wait for him to go into the water 84 times this week," indicating that Young may have difficulty navigating the course's challenges. While acknowledging that some might be tempted by potential high odds ("He'll be 100 to 1. Man, it's Cam Young week."), Mayo stated, "Won't be for me," suggesting that Young is a risky option for betting or DFS lineups this week.

Joe Idone advised against betting on Cameron Young for the Arnold Palmer Invitational, expressing concern over Young's tendency to make too many bogeys, often at critical times. Joe believes that the tough conditions at Bay Hill will expose this weakness, making it difficult for Young to contend. He questioned Young's ability to compete against top players like Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler, suggesting that Young's inconsistency and recent form make him a risky bet in this event.

Cameron DaSilva tabbed Cameron Young as a valuable first-round leader play at +5000, citing his ability to shoot very low scores in individual rounds. DaSilva underscored the importance of driving accuracy and a hot putter on Thursday, noting that while Young hasn’t pieced together four winning rounds yet, he can strike early with a standout performance.

Christopher Powers backed Cameron Young at 45-1, recalling last season’s top-five finish in this event and a subsequent runner-up at Valspar. In a comparatively weak field, Powers sees Young’s upside as worth the risk despite his sporadic putting displays.

Dave Tindall advised backing Cameron Young at 35/1, noting his status as a local resident and exceptional track record at PGA National, where he has finished 16th and fourth in two appearances, carding multiple rounds of 65 or better. Tindall also pointed out Young's links success, including a runner-up finish at the 2022 Open at St Andrews, and strong Florida form with runner-up at the Valspar Championship and top-10s at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Tindall expects Young’s proven comfort level on Florida courses to make him a solid each-way wager.

Dylan Svoboda recommended a bet on Cameron Young to finish top 10 at the Cognizant Classic, noting Young’s seven runner-up finishes and 10 top-five finishes in his short career. Svoboda also referenced Young’s recent success this season, including a T-12 finish at the Phoenix Open and a T-8 at The Sentry, as well as his T-4 finish last year at the same event. He believes Young has an outside shot at earning his first PGA Tour win in South Florida.

Geoff Fienberg plans to bet on Cameron Young at 50 to 1 odds for the 2025 American Express, expressing strong attraction to this bet despite others possibly overlooking Young.
