Wyndham Championship: PGA Tour Predictions, Odds 8/3/23
Wyndham Championship
2023-08-03 07:00:00 EDT
This week, the PGA Tour travels to North Carolina for the 2023 Wyndham Championship.
Before I dive into my favorite bets for the 2023 Wyndham Championship let’s take a look at the golf course the field will play and the key player statistics that I feel are the most vital for a golfer’s success at this week’s PGA Tour event.
The 2023 Wyndham Championship will be played at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina. This track was designed by Donald Ross in 1926. The golf course is a par 70 that measures approximately 7,131 yards. This golf course will present this week’s field with Bermuda grass greens and fairways. It should also be noted that Sedgefield Country Club has been the host course for the Wyndham Championship since 2008.
The key player statistics that I will be focusing on this week are strokes gained approach, GIR (greens in regulation), proximity to the hole, and driving accuracy.
Now let’s shift our focus to my favorite golf bets for the 2023 Wyndham Championship.
Here is a golfer to consider placing on your card to win.
Hideki Matsuyama +1800
Since the beginning of April, Hideki Matsuyama has played ten tournaments on the PGA Tour. In those ten events just noted, Matsuyama has accumulated six top 23 finishes, including a 13th place result at the 2023 Open Championship two weeks ago.
In relation to this week’s current listed 2023 Wyndham Championship field, in the last 50 rounds played on the PGA Tour, Hideki Matsuyama ranks second in strokes gained approach, fourth in strokes gained ball striking, first in bogey avoidance, and third in GIR (greens in regulation).
In my opinion, Hideki Matsuyama is clearly the best golfer in this week’s field. Having stated that, I am backing Matsuyama to win this event at odds of +1800.
Here is a golfer to consider placing on your card to finish in the top ten.
JT Poston +400
JT Poston has accumulated three top six finishes in his last four tournaments played on the PGA Tour, including an impressive second place result at last week’s 2023 3M Open.
I also like the fact that JT Poston has posted quaility results at Sedgefield Country Club in the past. More specifically, JT Poston won the 2018 Wyndham Championship.
In summary, I am backing JT Poston to post a top ten finish at this week’s 2023 Wyndham Championship.
