The 2025 Truist Championship: McIlroy Leads a Star-Studded Field
The 2025 PGA Tour continues with the Truist Championship at Philadelphia Cricket Club in Flourtown, Penn. This Signature Event, with a $20M purse and an initial expectation that precision and touch around the greens will be key, promises an exciting four days of golf.
Rory McIlroy, the defending champion and a four-time winner of the event, leads as the marquee favorite. Despite the event moving to a new venue this year, the A.W. Tillinghast-designed Wissahickon course at Philadelphia Cricket Club, McIlroy's current form and spectacular season including a historic Masters victory make him a strong favorite. His betting odds according to FanDuel are +650, also +750 at Caesars Sportsbook.
Keith Mitchell and Shane Lowry are close behind on the betting markets. Mitchell, with odds of +450, and Lowry, at +550, have also had impressive seasons. Mitchell has already shown promise in Major tournaments, while Lowry's consistent performance makes him a strong contender.
Tom Hoge is another contender to watch. He ranks top-5 in the field in SG: Approach for the Truist Championship, thanks to improved accuracy off the tee and a streaky putter.
Collin Morikawa, the No. 1 player in the model for the week, is a strong contender for the Truist Championship. His strong performances in key categories such as SG: TOT, SG: T2G, SG: Ball Striking, and Comp Course History make him a formidable opponent.
Tommy Fleetwood, Corey Conners, and Patrick Cantlay are also strong contenders. Fleetwood, due for a PGA TOUR win, is a top choice due to his recent form and ranking top-10 in SG: T2G and SG: Ball Striking over the last 36 rounds. Conners, a Northeast performer who has shown promise in Majors and has improved his putting baseline this season, is another player to watch.
Gary Woodland's form may be overlooked this week, but he has a chance to perform well due to the advantage for longer hitters and stronger long-iron players at the 7,119-yard course.
Justin Rose, one of the favorite values on the board, rates out top-10 in the model this week. His strong 2025 season, with top-10 finishes in Signature Events at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, makes him a contender.
Ludvig Aberg, the winner of the Genesis Invitational in February, is favored over Patrick Cantlay at the Philadelphia Cricket Club, due to his long and straight drives.
John Haslbauer is providing betting picks and predictions for the Truist Championship. Aaron Rai, Will Zalatoris, and Byeong Hun An are among the picks for the First-Round Leader market, due to their reliable fairway finding and mid-iron approach play.
