After an up-and-down season filled more so with struggles, Matthew Wolff shined during the first round of the LIV Golf Invitational Greenbrier by carding a 9-under par 61 to give him the solo lead.

The 61 was the joint-lowest single-round score in LIV Golf history. Harold Varner III and David Puig trail Wolff by two strokes in second place at 7-under. Varner is attempting to win for the second time in four events, while Puig and Wolff are looking for their first wins on LIV.

Household names Brooks Koepka and Dustin Johnson are within striking distance at 5-under along with seven others, followed by 6-time major champion Phil Mickelson headlining a group of seven players at 4-under.

In this article, we’ll provide a day-two betting prediction for a promising head-to-head matchup.

LIV Golf Invitational Greenbrier Day 2 Tip: H2H Matchup

The featured pick is for the 18 holes played on Saturday.

Peter Uihlein over Charles Howell III @ 20/23 (-115)

Charles Howell III got his season off to a blazing hot start with a win in the opening tournament at LIV Mayakoba, where he ironically defeated Uihlein, who came in second place.

Despite the first month of excellent play from Howell, he’s certainly seen a dip in form over his past three events, where he’s finished T31, T45, and T44.

At this week’s LIV Greenbrier, both Howell and Uihlein sit in a tie for sixth after posting 5-under rounds of 65 on Friday.

Uihlein hasn’t won on LIV, but he’s enjoyed a more consistent season than Howell, contending more and earning higher finishes.

Average finishing position on LIV this season

• Uihlein: 15.1
• Howell: 21.3

The Oklahoma State product, Uihlein, has recorded an average of 0.78 strokes lower in second rounds this campaign.

Second-round scoring averages

• Uihlein: 68.66
• Howell: 69.44

Over their past five tournaments, Uihlein has scored better during the second round in three of the five, with one round being a tie (3-1-1 record).

Uihlein vs. Howell in second rounds

Tournament	Uihlein’s Rd 2 Score	Howell’s Rd 2 Score
LIV Mayakoba	66	66
LIV Tucson	72	65
LIV Orlando	67	72
LIV Adelaide	68	69
LIV Singapore	68	70
LIV Tulsa	65	64
LIV DC	71	73
LIV Andalucia	73	73
LIV London	68	73

Uihlein has also earned a better finish than Howell during the past three events.

The 20/23 (-115) line on Bet365 in favor of Uihlein definitely holds value being close to even money and based on the Massachusetts native’s form as well as play during the second rounds of 2023.
