The last tournament of the regular season sends the PGA Tour to Greensboro, North Carolina, for this week’s Wyndham Championship. A change in the format puts the top 70 in the FedExCup standings ahead to the playoffs starting next week and a number of players on the bubble will attempt to earn the required number of points in order to advance. At 27th in the FedExCup race, Sungjae Im is moving on and opened as the betting favorite for the second straight year. Im finished as runner-up to Tom Kim last year, but there will be a new champion with Kim electing not to defend due to an injury. And comfortably ranked in the standings provides Kim the opportunity. BookMaker.eu has a complete updated list of betting odds for the Wyndham Championship when you’re ready to make a wager.

Odds Analysis
Billy Horschel +6050
Considering the strength of the field it’s worth it to take look further down the odds board. I’m not saying we’re going to have a big upset but the chances increase when the field is evened out. Well down the FedExCup standings, Horschel isn’t advancing to the St. Jude Championship, but ending the season on a positive run will help for next season. Last week he had his best finish since April with a T13 in the Twin Cities, and he’s been solid at Sedgefield going 6 for 6 with four of those placing him among the top 11.
Si Woo Kim +1850
Putting together what well could be his finest season on Tour, Kim is my pick from the players hanging around the top of the odds board. At No. 18 in the FedExCup standings, Kim is moving on to next week, however locating his game is important after two straight MCs. Kim has a history at Sedgefield what could be just he needs. He had to withdraw from last year’s event but in the previous five he placed among the top 5 four times with his maiden Tour win here in 2016.
J.T. Poston +3350
I didn’t do this on purpose, but it turns out another former Wyndham winner is on my target list. Poston was brilliant in 2019 winning with a bogey free record-tying 22-under 258. He also enters on a nice run of form that saw him finish T6 at both the John Deere and Scottish Open and as one of three players second to Lee Hodges last week at TPC Twin Cities. Poston is sad to see the month of July end but his strong play should continue.
Kevin Streelman+9250
Finishing with Poston as co-runners-up last week, Streelman is another of the players well down the odds board with plenty of value. He too has enjoyed success at Sedgefield with six paydays in eight trips, including a T7 in 2021. For the most part it’s been one and occasionally two rounds that have been Streelman’s undoing this season, so a solid four rounds last week could be what gets him to the finish line at Sedgefield.
Justin Thomas +3750
Thomas is in unfamiliar territory sitting outside the playoff field this week. He actually dropped a few spots in the FedExCup standings with his MC at the 3M Open when he needed a huge performance to get back in field. His recent slump is alarming and not being able to answer the bell last week should keep me away from backing him. However, JT has been in more pressure-packed spots during his career and more times than not he’s succeeded.
Course: Sedgefield Country Club – 7,131 yards, Par 70
Part of the rotation for the Greater Greensboro Open, Sedgefield enters its 16th year serving as host for the Wyndham Championship. Playing at 7,131 yards, the layout is short by Tour standards making driving distance a non-factor. A few years ago Henrik Stenson played the entire tournament without a driver in his bag. And proving his point, Stenson went and won the tournament with a record 22-under 258. Accuracy is critical. The field averages better than 80 percent GIR from the fairways with a significant decline when hitting from the rough. The course is no picnic, however. There are numerous water hazards, doglegs and small undulating greens that will test the patience of every player. Last year Kim opened with a quad-8 and still won by five swings, the largest margin since 1992.
