2023 Wyndham Championship odds, picks: Long shots offer values at Southwind

The PGA Tour’s regular season comes to a conclusion this week at the 2023 Wyndham Championship at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, N.C.

Like we saw last week at the 3M, the Wyndham features a watered-down field with most of the Tour’s elite players opting to rest ahead of the three-leg FedEx Cup Playoffs, which kicks off at TPC Southwind next week.

Hideki Matsuyama is a very lukewarm favorite this week at +1800, and the chasing pack is not exactly a murderer’s row either.

Sungjae Im, Russell Henley and Si Woo Kim are essentially co-favorites at +2000, while Sam Burns (+2200), Denny McCarthy (+2500) and JT Poston (+2800) are the only other golfers under +3000. 

This event has been pretty kind to long shots in the past, so we’ll take a look at some big prices in a very beatable field.

2023 Wyndham Championship picks

Justin Suh (+10000, FanDuel)

It looked like Justin Suh was on his way to breaking out earlier this year.

The 26-year-old was terrific during the early stages of 2023, finishing T20-T40-T5-T24-T6 at the Farmers Insurance Open, Genesis Invitational, Honda Classic, Arnold Palmer Invitational and THE PLAYERS – which is not exactly an easy run of tournaments.

But Suh came back to earth a bit over the second half of the campaign, though a T26 at the PGA Championship followed by a T16 at the Charles Schwab were both impressive results. 

So even though Suh’s form has dipped of late – he’s got one top-30 finish in his last six outings – he’s shown he’s got the talent to contend in much tougher fields on harder courses than this one.

This is a great number on a player with this much talent.

C.T. Pan (+20000, PointsBet)

The results have been all over the map for C.T. Pan over his last five starts.

The 31-year-old posted consecutive top-5 finishes at the AT&T Byron Nelson and RBC Canadian Open but then missed the weekend in his next two starts at the Travelers and Scottish Open.

Pan is coming off a 70th-place finish at last week’s 3M Open.

But I’m fine with drawing a line through the Travelers and 3M because they tend to favor bombers and Pan is not long off the tee, and the Scottish Open because it is played on a links-style course.

Pan plays his best golf on short, score-able courses and Sedgefield ticks both of those boxes.

Pan has played this event five times and has a runner-up finish and has not missed a cut (he withdrew in 2022). 

Zac Blair (+30000, FanDuel)

Few players have been more boom or bust than Zac Blair of late.

The Salt Lake City native has missed five cuts in his last nine stroke-play events, but when he’s made the weekend he’s posted some terrific results.

Blair was T10 at the Valspar, runner-up at the Travelers and is coming off a T13 at the 3M Open.

He’s certainly a serious threat to miss the cut, but those results are good enough to bite on Blair at 300/1.
