Brooks Koepka enters the 2025 PGA Championship flying under the radar, but confident he can challenge for a fourth PGA Championship win. He enters the PGA Championship 2025 tied for the 10th-best odds to walk away with the trophy at +4000. Koepka has been as high as No. 1 on the world rankings and last won the PGA Championship in 2023, winning by two strokes over Viktor Hovland and Scottie Scheffler. Scheffler, the current World No. 1 player, is the co-favorite with Rory McIlroy (+450), with Bryson DeChambeau (+700) in the 2025 PGA Championship odds.
Defending champion Xander Schauffele is +2200 to repeat among the 2025 PGA Championship golfers. The 2025 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow Club from Charlotte will tee off beginning at 7 a.m. on Thursday. Before making any 2025 PGA Championship picks, you need to see the 2025 PGA Championship predictions and best bets from golf insider Sia Nejad.
Nejad specializes in betting and DFS in golf, among other sports. He’s had incredible success in the outright and first-round leader markets and in betting head-to-head matchups. He also has been solid with his head-to-head matchups since the 2023 Charles Schwab Challenge, going 52-37-5 and returning 11.67 units over that span. That’s a $1,167 profit for $100 bettors since May 2023.
Nejad also nailed Wyndham Clark, a +7500 longshot, as the outright winner at the Wells Fargo Championship 2023. That year, SportsLine debuted “The Early Wedge,” and in the first three months of the show, he hit two first-round leaders and three outright winners. Anyone who has followed its sports betting picks could have seen massive returns on betting apps like FanDuel, DraftKings and Fanatics.
Now, Nejad has turned his attention to the 2025 PGA Championship field and locked in his best bets, top 2025 PGA Championship sleeper picks and favorites to avoid for anyone deciding how to bet on the PGA Championship. See who they are at SportsLine. You can also check out the latest 2025 PGA Championship sign-up bonuses.
Top 2025 PGA Championship expert picks
One surprise: Nejad is completely fading Collin Morikawa, even though he is a two-time major champion and former PGA Championship winner. The two-time major champion and seven-time winner at the professional level turned pro in 2019. He has been ranked as high as No. 2 in the World, achieving that in October 2021. Despite all of his successes, Nejad sees the 28-year-old at being at a major disadvantage when he tees off this coming weekend.
Morikawa is not long off the tee, averaging just 293.6 yards per drive. He is also ranked outside the top 80 in putting and one-putt percentage (41.07%), which doesn’t bode well at Quail Hollow. The course, according to this year’s PGA scorecard, is a par-71 that stretches 7,600-plus yards. It also has five par-4s of more than 480 yards, including three that range between 505 and 530 yards. Because of this, Nejad sees better value elsewhere. See who to back here.
How to make 2025 PGA Championship picks, bets
Nejad has locked in his 2025 PGA Championship best bets, including a double-digit longshot. He is “an elite course fit,” so anyone who backs him could hit it big. You can only see the picks at SportsLine.
So, which players should you target for the 2025 PGA Championship, and which golfer could bring a huge payday of more than 10-1? Check out the 2025 PGA Championship odds below, then visit SportsLine to see Sia Nejad’s top picks for the 2025 PGA Championship, all from the expert who has returned $1,167 for $100 bettors.

Top prospect Dalton Rushing gets call from Dodgers, replacing a clubhouse ‘pillar’
LOS ANGELES — A pillar was moved and a chapter was turned for the Los Angeles Dodgers late on Tuesday night and into early Wednesday morning, as the club called Dalton Rushing at 1 a.m. in Round Rock, Texas, and told the top prospect he’d be coming up to the big leagues. As that was happening, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts was letting Austin Barnes know the organization was letting its longest-tenured position player go.AdvertisementThe shuffle of who would back up franchise catcher Will Smith behind the plate came together quickly, yet signaled a shift that was a long time coming. Rushing was the Dodgers’ top pick in the draft three years ago and was soon banging down the door to the bigs. His promotion came at the cost of Barnes, the lone position player from Roberts’ entire tenure as manager […]
Yankees’ Paul Goldschmidt sought advice from an old fan favorite. It paid off
SEATTLE — Remember the Matt Carpenter era?There was a time in 2022 when Carpenter ruled the Bronx. The lefty slugger, with his black handlebar mustache and double wristbands, had a career renaissance in New York Yankees pinstripes, hitting .305 with 15 home runs and a 1.138 OPS in 47 games before a foul ball off the foot ended his regular season in August.AdvertisementCarpenter announced his retirement Wednesday. And his name was brought up in the context of the Yankees following a 3-2 win over the Seattle Mariners at T-Mobile Park.After Paul Goldschmidt crushed a pinch hit solo shot to tie the game at 2-2 in the seventh inning, he credited Carpenter for giving him advice on how to come off the bench.“I know at the end of his career, he pinch hit a lot, and (he) and I are really […]
GTA VI: como o adiamento afeta a indústria de games
