Wyndham Championship 2019 Golf Betting Odds Preview

Wyndham Championship Golf Tournament Betting Odds Preview

Right before the FedEx Cup playoffs, the eyes of the golf world will be on the 2019 Wyndham Championship for the PGA Tour regular-season finale. This tournament represents the last chance for the top golfers to crack the Top-125 standing to get into the FedEx Cup playoffs.

The prestige of the Wyndham Championship goes back several decades ago when it started in 1938. The tournament was usually held in April or May until a schedule change in 2003 moved it toward the end of the season.

The reason the competition is so important now is that the biggest names in the PGA tour get a last chance to be in the playoffs. That brings some added pressure and drama. This is why betting on the 2019 Wyndham Championship is so popular.

Wyndham Championship Golf Tournament Details

When Is The 2019 Wyndham Championship Played?

The 2019 Wyndham Championship will be played from Thursday, August 1st until Sunday, August 4th, 2019.

The tee time for the first group of players will be at 7AM ET. This includes golfers: Bill Haas, Jonathan Byrd, and Tom Hog.

Where Is The 2019 Wyndham Championship Played?

The tournament is played under a Par 70 at the Sedgefield Country Club Ross Course, in Greensboro, North Carolina. The course was opened back in 1926 and restored in 2007.

Who Are Betting Favorites To Win The 2019 Wyndham Championship?

The most influential names in the PGA tour have already qualified for the FedEx playoffs, which means they will be skipping this tournament. Those names are getting ready for The Northern Trust tournament in two weeks.

A significant story to follow is about Jordan Spieth, who is on the brink of going winless in back-to-back seasons.

Let’s look at the betting favorites to win the 2019 Wyndham Golf Championship:

Webb Simpson +900

At 9 to 1, Webb Simpson enters the tournament as the biggest favorite at MyBookie.ag to win the Wyndham Championship. Simpson will tee off at 7:50 AM on Thursday and will be with Patrick Reed and Si Woo Kim. All three are former Wyndham Championship winners.

Simpson, of course, is a PGA tour five-time winner, including a US Open major triumph in 2012. His last big win was in 2018 when he took the top position at the Players Championship.

Last year, Simpson couldn’t take the title home at the Wyndham Championship after finishing second with 18 strokes under par. He ended up three strokes behind the winner, Brandt Snedeker.

Hideki Matsuyama +1400

The Japanese Hideki Matsuyama has won all over the world, and he looks to add another title to his extensive resume. Matsuyama has won five PGA tour titles, eight in the Japanese Golf tour, and two in the European tour.

Hideki knows Simpson well, as they both went head-to-head in the Waste Management Phoenix Open in 2017. Matsuyama ended up winning.

Hideki Matsuyama missed the cut at the Open Championship a few weeks ago and will have something to prove at the Wyndham Championship. Missing the cut always forces golfers to bounce back in the next tournament, and this is the one for Matsuyama.

Jordan Spieth +1600

It seems like Jordan Spieth forgot how to win in the tour and that’s a shame. He was one of the most exciting players on the PGA tour when he was winning. The possibility of back-to-back winless seasons is causing significant damage to his reputation.

Spieth comes to the tournament with a 6% implied probability, which is low considering he used to be one of the best.

Young Golfer With Much To Prove

Jordan Spieth still very young and will have a lot of years in the tour to keep winning. He needs that one victory to take him out of the slump. Spieth’s best result this season was a third place in the PGA Championship in 2019.

The value on betting Jordan Spieth at +1600 is that he’s the best golfer in the tournament by far; it’s not even a question. The momentum he’s having is just the one thing going against him, but the talent still there.

Collin Morikawa +1800

The young Collin Morikawa has an excellent opportunity to prove himself again in the PGA tour. The 22-year old American jumped into the spotlight with a Barracuda Championship win just days ago. It was the first PGA Tour win of his career.

Beyond the talent of Morikawa, the betting odds are clearly trying to respect his winning momentum coming into the Wyndham Championship.

Paul Casey +2000

Paul Casey didn’t have a good enough showing in The Open Championship after ending in the 57th place. To be fair, he hasn’t been on point in the last few majors, especially in 2019. His best result this season was a third place in the Mexico Championship and a 16th place at the Match Play.

Casey has 13 European Tour wins, three at the PAG Tour and two in the Asian Tour. It just happens that he has been better in the past, and many believed his prime is gone.
