Top 20 Finish Golf parlay picks: Valspar Championship featuring Akshay Bhatia

Teeing off on Thursday, March 19, the 2026 Valspar Championship presents countless golf betting opportunities and by combining the Dimers golf predictions with a parlay boost at Bet365 sportsbook, we're looking to capitalize this week at Innisbrook Resort's Copperhead Course.

A competitive field will descend on one of the PGA TOUR's most beloved stops, a course known for its demanding layout, thick rough, and the iconic "Snake Pit" finishing stretch.

Beyond Dimers' best bets for the Valspar Championship which also identified Cameron Young to win THE PLAYERS, Top 20 placement markets are one of the most underrated ways to build a golf parlay.

The margin for error is wider than chasing a winner or even a Top 10, yet the combined odds, especially with Bet365's boost, can still deliver a considerably payout.

It's a notable strategy for a field like this one, where the absence of some of the world's top-ranked players opens the door for value plays across the board.

Dimers' golf predictions run thousands of simulations across the full tournament, giving us projected placement data for every player in the field, helping pinpoint who stands out among the rest.

2026 Valspar Championship Top 20 parlay picks

These picks come directly from the Dimers golf predictions, which offer Top 20, Top 10, Top 5 and outright winner predictions for every PGA tournament, as well as a Head-to-Head matchup tool. Both golfers also feature in our latest Valspar Championship Power Rankings.

Combining these two data-backed picks gives us a golf parlay at +300 odds, which gets a boost to +341 thanks to our friends at Bet365 Sportsbook.

Note that we are utilizing the Top 20 (Including Ties) market to avoid dead heat reductions.

Leg 1: Jacob Bridgeman to finish Top 20

You don't need to make a hard case for Bridgeman right now as his results and Dimers' model predictions do it for him.

He's No. 1 in FedExCup points with a win at the Genesis, two other Top 5s, and he hasn't finished outside the Top 20 a single time this season.

A 49.1% chance to extend that streak here is almost a coin flip, and with plus-money odds for a Top 20 finish, the value is hard to ignore.

He leads the field in strokes gained putting, which is as reliable an edge as any at a course where the back nine will separate the field in a hurry.

Leg 2: Akshay Bhatia to finish Top 20

At 52%, our model makes Bhatia just a little over a coin-flip to land inside the Top 20 this week at a 51.9% probability, and we're getting plus money on that as a straight play for value on its own.

His current form backs that up; since two-missed-cuts start to the season, he hasn't finished worse than T16, reeling off three Top 10s, two Top 5s, and a playoff win at the Arnold Palmer.

His stat profile is built for Copperhead save for some slightly below average metrics off the tee, but this is a course that taxes everyone in that regard.

As a Top 5 overall win probability, Bhatia is set up for another weekend contending on the PGA TOUR.

Valspar Championship boosted parlay bet

To recap this parlay, we are riding with the following golfers to finish Top 20, including ties:

⛳ Jacob Bridgeman: 49.1%

⛳ Akshay Bhatia: 51.9%

Due to the market including ties, we have slightly reduced odds, but will avoid any dead heat reduction which can be significantly impacted by multiple golfers occupying the same spot.

Grab it with a boost from +300 to +341 at bet365 sportsbook and let's cash!
