Nexo Tournament 2025 Betting Odds, Underdog Predictions, and Contenders for Victory
Nexo Championship Returns to Trump International Golf Links in Scotland
After a brief hiatus, the DP World Tour is set to resume with the Nexo Championship, taking place at the picturesque Trump International Golf Links in Scotland. The course, which offers panoramic views of the North Sea, towering sand dunes, infinity-edge greens, and the world's largest natural bunker, has already hosted the PGA Seniors Championship on the Legends Tour.
The 7,439-yard par 72 course promises to challenge the best golfers in the DP World Tour field this week. Some of the potential winners for various events in 2025, according to Golf Monthly, include Richard Mansell, Eugenio Chacarra, Sergio Garcia, Ludvig Aberg, Laurie Canter, Joaquin Niemann, Tyrrell Hatton, Scottie Scheffler, and Rory McIlroy.
Among those listed, Chacarra has been singled out as a betting pick for the Nexo Championship with odds of +4000 at BetMGM. Kristoffer Reitan, who has been in good form with a DP World Tour win and multiple top-10 finishes, is also expected to challenge for the title.
Ewen Ferguson, despite missing the cut in his last two starts, has shown good form with a runner-up finish and a T4th in previous tournaments. Eddie Pepperell, who has returned from injury and performed well on the HotelPlanner Tour, could also be a contender.
Jordan Smith, the odds-on favorite to win the Nexo Championship, will face stiff competition from Marco Penge, Francesco Laporta, and Joost Luiten, who are expected to challenge him throughout the tournament. David Law, who has been performing well on the HotelPlanner Tour, with a win and several top-10 finishes, could also pose a threat.
Notably, Jacob Skov Olesen, who has a strong background in links golf, having held the day-one lead at The Open and winning the Amateur Championship, could be a dark horse in the tournament.
The top golf courses in Scotland associated with Donald Trump include the Trump International Golf Links, which opened in 2012 and was designed by Dr. Martin Hawtree, and Trump Turnberry, which includes the famous Ailsa course, which has hosted four Open Championships. The Turnberry resort offers two 18-hole courses and a 9-hole course, and underwent renovations by Martin Ebert.
While Trump owns these courses and promotes them, the actual course designs were carried out by established golf architects rather than Trump himself. An 18-hole course pending opening at Trump’s Menie estate near the Trump International Golf Links, named after his mother, Mary Anne MacLeod Trump, is not yet established as a top course.
The Nexo Championship is offering various betting odds for different players, making for an exciting tournament for both players and spectators alike. Let the games begin!
