Cam Smith has won two of the last three LIV Golf events and has separated himself from the rest of the pack for this week's event in Illinois.

LIV Golf Chicago is returning to Rich Harvest Farms where the 2022 edition was played... and coincidentally also won by Smith. Needless to say, he's the clear favorite for good reason.

We break down his chances in our full LIV Golf Chicago betting preview below, including golf odds and free golf picks

LIV Golf Chicago field and favorites

As mentioned at the onset, Cam Smith has been playing some stellar golf. He beat out Patrick Reed in London to win by one shot, then won by seven shots behind rounds of 66, 67, and 68 in Bedminster. That moved the Aussie into a tie for first alongside Talor Gooch for the most LIV Golf victories (three).

His first win also came here at Rich Harvest Farms in what was the fifth-ever LIV event. He won by three over Dustin Johnson and returns in even better form this time around — which his +600 odds certainly reflect. 

Bryson DeChambeau sits second on the board at 12/1 after getting his first LIV win in Greenbrier back in August, followed by Dustin Johnson who hasn't won since Tulsa in May but is always a threat to do so.

Three-time winner Talor Gooch is now consistently inside the Top 5 (fourth this week) after winning three times between April and July. Patrick Reed, Brooks Koepka, and Mito Pereira can all be had in the 16/1 range, with P-Reed still looking for his first victory.
