Preview of John Deere Classic
The John Deere Classic is going to be the next stop on the PGA Tour schedule this weekend as the golfers will be competing at TPC Deere Run. Since the Open Championship is next weekend, there are many of the top players in the world that tend to sit this weekend out.
There are actually some big names still set to compete this weekend, and that’s not always the case for this event. That will create some incredible drama on the golf course, and it will also come with some good betting options.
Here is a look at the top odds to win the John Deere Classic, and a pick as to who is going to win this event.
Big Names as Favorites
Many of the top players in the world are skipping this tournament, but there are still three players competing this weekend that are big names. As you might expect, those three players are the early betting favorites to win this tournament as well.
Sungjae Im is coming to TPC Deere Run as the betting favorite, and his odds are currently sitting at +1400 to win the event this weekend. Im has had a ton of success already this year, but he needs to prove that he can play great for four rounds in a row to win it.
Sepp Straka is next on the list at +1800, and he has really burst onto the scene with a ton of success already this year. He is another player that will be looking to take advantage of a weaker field to come away with a win.
Jordan Spieth is the other name to watch this weekend and he has odds set at +2000. Spieth is looking to get some momentum ahead of the Open Championship, and this might be the weekend to do it.

A Look at Contenders
If you are looking at the top contenders this weekend then you are going to have to go with some relative unknowns. That doesn’t mean that there aren’t accomplished golfers in the mix, but the odds will look much different for this event than some others.
Aaron Rai (+2000) and Maverick McNealy (+2500) are seen as the top contenders to the big group of three, but they haven’t had a ton of success. Jason Day is another big name competing this weekend, and he has odds set at +3300 to win it.
The odds really start to fall off from there, but there are still some other players to watch.
Spieth Gets it Done
One of the three biggest names is going to win the tournament this weekend, as there is a pretty big gap between them and the rest of the field. Im and Straka are both going to be pushing hard to win this weekend, but they are going to end up coming up a bit short.
If you are going to make a bet on the winner of the John Deere Classic then you are going to want to go with Jordan Spieth. There is a ton of value in getting Spieth at +2000 and that is what will happen this weekend.
