Price Cutter Charity Championship presented by Dr Pepper: Tee times | Field | Power Rankings | More: PGA Championship | Sleepers

PGATOUR.COM will have expert picks and sleepers for each Nationwide Tour event this year. Our experts -- Nationwide Tour producer Ceri Mobley and former Nationwide Tour and PGATOUR.COM employee Jordan Crampton -- will each choose two players they consider favorites that week and a sleeper pick (a player who is not inside "THE 25"). Here are their selections for this week's Price Cutter Charity Championship presented by Dr Pepper.

Crampton's picks Mobley's picks Henrik Bjornstad. This is a very easy choice; Bjornstad tied for 12th here last season, and he's made his last six cuts. Fresh off his third top-10 this season, Bjornstad needs to keep up his good play, as he's currently 27th on the money list. He's been due for a win all season; what better time to get it done than right now? Blake Adams. A little like Michael Sim, who's playing in the PGA Championship this week, once you've grabbed a hold of Adams, you don't let him go if you can help it. The soon-to-be 34-year-old has climbed to fourth in "THE 25" partly off the strength of four consecutive top-10s in as many weeks. It's time for a victory. Bubba Dickerson. Coming off his fourth consecutive made cut, Dickerson seems primed for his second win of the season. He currently ranks ninth and 15th in birdies and eagles respectively, and he will need plenty of both on a course that favors players who can go low. Roger Tambellini. I'm so nervous about this pick. Tambellini won just three starts ago and tied for second the start before that. But he has missed two consecutive cuts, so his game isn't where it should be. Why am I picking him? He won here in 2005, and I figure that will kick the slump.

Crampton's sleeper Mobley's sleeper Tommy Gainey. His numbers might not be all that impressive, but Gainey has made half his cuts on TOUR this year and has played pretty well in a few Nationwide Tour events. He was a runner-up at Disney on the PGA TOUR last season, so there's no doubt he will be competitive this week if he can find his form. David Branshaw. This veteran has had a few solid weeks lately (save a missed cut in Ohio) with ties for seventh, ninth and 26th. He's pretty unpredictable with missing cuts, but since he tied for sixth here last year, I think he'll be able to make the weekend and keep it going beyond that pretty safely. We shall see.

LAST WEEK: Two ties for ninth for Jordan Crampton enabled him to keep his distance from Ceri Mobley, who tried her best to catch him last week with Blake Adams, who eventually tied for seventh.
