John Deere Classic 2023 Odds
This week’s stop in Silvis, Illinois will draw a weaker field than usual at the 2023 John Deere Classic. With the Tour preparing to head overseas, many of the world’s top players have elected to skip the event at TPC Deere Run.
After a week in Detroit, the PGA Tour continues in the Midwest for one more week before the season’s final major. The field is generally compromised due to the scheduling and with only $7.4 million on the line, only nine of the top 50 players are coming out of the woodwork this week.
The field is highlighted by Cameron Young, Russell Henley, Denny McCarthy, Seep Straka, and RBC Canadian Open winner Nick Taylor.
Currently, McCarthy has the best odds to win at +1200, followed closely by Russell Henley, who checks in at +1400.
The rest of the top five rounds off with Cameron Young (+1600), Ludvig Aberg (+1600), and Emiliano Grillo (+2000).
On the other hand, 2022 John Deere Classic winner J.T. Poston is considered a longshot at +3300 odds to defend his title.
John Deere Classic 2023 Picks and Predictions
Denny McCarthy (+1200)
McCarthy has put together a very strong season this year. The current No. 34 player in the world, McCarthy has improved by 50 spots since the end of 2022. He’s coming off a T7 at the Travelers Championship and looks to be in top form heading into this week.
McCarthy has made 13 cuts in 2023, including three top 10 finishes. He’s finished in the top 20 in three consecutive starts, all designated events, helping him boost his season earnings considerably over the past month. He finished T6 last year at TPC Deere Run and is primed for his first win in the season against a short field.
Russell Henley (+1400)
Henley has the second shortest odds in the field, and for good reason, he has a really great track record at TPC Deere run. Sitting at No. 29 on the Official World Golf Rankings, Henley makes his return to the Tour after a T19 finish at the Travelers Championship.
Henley has been playing well, finishing in the top 20 in eight of his last nine starts. In his previous three appearances at the John Deere Classic, Henley has finished no worse than a T27. His best performance came in 2019 where he finished with a solo second place.
Adam Hadwin (+2100)
Hadwin nearly struck gold last weekend at the Rocket Mortgage Classic before Rickie Fowler held him off in the playoff round. Still looking for his second win in his career, Hadwin has been close a few times this year.
After a heartbreaking loss, Hadwin moves on to the John Deere Classic. He’s played well in his last three appearances including a T112 at the RBC Canadian Open, 59th at the U.S. Open and a T2 finish last weekend at the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
With Hadwin in top form, he’ll be worth a shot at these odds against a weak field.
