Molinari looks for home advantage

-

SAT-SUNDAY, 9.30PM

Most of the focus will be on the FedEx Cup, but there’s plenty of other golf on this weekend. The Italian Open has a strong field headlined by English pair Matt Fitzpatric­k and Tommy Fleetwood. The event features a number of veterans who have excelled on the European Tour, such as Martin Kaymer, while local hope Francesco Molinari is the value pick of the weekend. Molinari has won the Italian Open twice and also finished second in 2018. He hasn’t had a great run in recent events, but he should bounce back to form in front of his home fans.
