2023 Wyndham Championship odds, picks: Proven model reveals projected leaderboard, surprising PGA golf predictions
The 2023 Wyndham Championship tees off Thursday at Sedgefield Country Club. This is the final event of the 2022-23 PGA Tour regular season and only the top 75 players in the FedEx Cup standings will qualify for the playoffs beginning next week in Memphis. That means the 2023 Wyndham Championship field will be loaded with players hungry to earn a postseason spot or firm up their position. Sungjae Im is the 16-1 favorite in the 2023 Wyndham Championship odds, while Hideki Matsuyama is 18-1. Justin Thomas is 28-1 in this week's PGA Tour odds and sits 79th in the standings, so the 15-time PGA Tour winner will need a strong showing at Sedgefield.
Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact, the model is up more than $9,500 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
McClure's model predicted Jon Rahm would finish on top of the leaderboard at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions and The American Express. And at the 2023 Masters, the model was all over Rahm's second career major victory heading into the weekend. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the third round, but the model still projected him as the winner. It was the second straight Masters win for the model, which also nailed Scottie Scheffler winning in 2022.
In addition, the model included Nick Taylor in its best bets to win the 2023 RBC Canadian Open. That bet hit at +7000, and for the entire tournament, McClure's best bets returned nearly $1,900. McClure's best bets also included Jason Day (17-1) winning outright at the 2023 AT&T Byron Nelson and Rickie Fowler (14-1) finishing on top of the leaderboard at the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic.
This same model has also nailed a whopping 10 majors entering the weekend! Anyone who has followed it has seen MASSIVE returns!
The Wyndham Championship is one of the oldest tournaments on the PGA Tour, beginning in 1938 as the Greater Greensboro Open. The event was played in the spring until 2003, when a schedule shift saw it moved toward the end of the PGA Tour's wraparound season. Sam Snead is an eight-time winner of the event, capturing his final title in 1965 at age 52, making him the oldest PGA Tour winner to this day. Sedgefield Country Club has hosted the tournament continuously since 2008 and was also the primary host from 1938 to 1976.
One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2023 Wyndham Championship: Sungjae Im, a two-time PGA Tour winner and the favorite at 16-1, stumbles this week and barely cracks the top 10! Another surprise: Justin Thomas, a 28-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He's a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday.
Also, the model is targeting THREE other golfers with odds of 25-1 or longerwho will make surprising runs at the title!Anyone who backs these golfers could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any 2023 Wyndham Championship picks!
