2023 Honda Classic Picks & Odds: Sungjae Im Favored

The Florida Swing kicks off at PGA National for this week's Honda Classic. 2020 champion Sungjae Im (+850) sits atop the board for the third straight year, headlining an otherwise thin field following two weeks of designated events.

The PGA Tour heads East for the Florida Swing, starting with this week's Honda Classic at PGA National and the famous "Bear Trap".

The field takes a step down this week with Sungjae Im topping the board for the third straight year after winning in 2020. Otherwise, we're looking at the likes of Billy Horschel, defending champion Sepp Straka, and a handful of other second-tier PGA Tour players.

We break it all down in our Honda Classic betting preview below, including outright odds, free golf picks, and more.

Honda Classic field and favorites

Gone are the elevated events — at least for now — and gone are the major championship fields that come with them. The Honda Classic has routinely become a week off for many of the Tour's top stars and 2023 will be no different, creating an opportunity for others to collect FedEx Cup points and shine.

For the third year in a row, Sungjae Im sits alone atop the board; not only is he clearly the best player in the field but he's also a former champion (2020). Shane Lowry sits second at +1,500 following a T14 at Riviera and is the only other golfer available at less than +20/1.

The next tier features the likes of Chris Kirk (+2,200), who finished third at the Sony and Amex before missing the cut in Phoenix, and Aaron Wise (+2,200). Other notables include Billy Horschel (+2,800) and defending champion Sepp Straka, who enters at a much shorter +5,000 number compared to a year ago (+12,500).
