2026 Wyndham Championship picks: PGA Tour best bets, odds, predictions for Sedgefield Country Club

What a year it’s been for Cameron Young.The New York native finally won his maiden PGA Tour title at the 2025 Wyndham Championship and, 12 months later, returns to Sedgefield Country Club as the betting favorite to repeat.Not only that, Young is now ranked as the No.
3 golfer in the world, only behind Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy.The 29-year-old has two wins, a runner-up, two third-place finishes, and eight top-10s in 16 starts this season.Making the cut this week would mean he goes the entire 2026 campaign without an early exit, since the three FedEx Cup Playoff events don’t have cuts.Despite all of that, Young will play second fiddle this week to the second-favorite, Jackson Koivun.Playing in just his sixth event as a professional golfer, the 21-year-old is the only other golfer besides Young (+850) to be priced under 20/1 at the Wyndham Championship.
Koivun, just two weeks removed from his maiden victory at the 3M Open, is 15/1 to lift the trophy at Sedgefield on Sunday.The rest of the field behind Young and Koivun isn’t that intimidating.Because of its spot on the calendar, immediately before the FedEx Cup Playoffs, a lot of the stars opt to skip the annual trip to Sedgefield.
Hideki Matsuyama (20/1), Ryan Gerard (22/1), and Ben Griffin (25/1), round out the top five on the oddsboard this week.With a weak field and a course that rewards precision over power, the Wyndham Championship is a tournament that regularly produces long shot winners.Jim Herman was 600/1 when he shocked everyone in 2020, Kevin Kisner (2021) and Lucas Glover (2023) were 60/1 in their triumphs, and Young was 55/1 when he broke through last year.We’ll focus on a few high prices to see if we can find the next surprise at Sedgefield:The unheralded 36-year-old is in fantastic form ahead of the Wyndham Championship.After missing consecutive cuts at the CJ Cup and Charles Schwab, Kohles has rattled off six straight top-30 finishes and has a pair of top-10s in his last four outing...
