2025 player championship staff selects to win, sleepers to see

The player championship begins on Thursday at Tpc sawAnd the last fist of winners – Scottie Scheffler, Cameron Smith, Justin Thomas and Rory Mcilroy – did not lack the power of the star.

Does this mean another big name player will win in 2025? Scheffler is the favorite of betting that has won the last two tours here, though he is still looking for his first season victory.

However, Scheffler does not think his previous victories help him a lot this week.

“Gray is good to have won this tournament for the last two years, but can I rely on some of those experiences when I grow up first and give myself a little confidence? Yes. If I miss the cut here last year, will I be as if I go to the first and be like, man, I threw a blow that last year, I did not hit again,” Schefler said. “Last year is last year. I’m not trying to copy it. I’m not trying to look back on it. At the end of the day, is in the past. “

Scheffler is +500 to win, and Collin Morikawa and Mcilroy are both +1200 to win.

Scheffler and Mcilroy will be joined by Xander schauuffle in one of the Marque groups of the first two days. This trio is turned off at 1:29 afternoon at Thursday’s 1st.

2025 player championship elections to win

Jack Harsh, editor of associate equipment: Collin Morikawa, +1200. I wrote the name of Scottie Scheffler as six times here, but I just can’t understand someone who wins three years in TPC Sawgrass. Morikawa is hitting the ball, and he has ever had, which says something giving his fruitful ball. I don’t expect a hang of Bay Hill’s loss.

Jessica Marxbury, Senior Editor: Shane Lowry, +4000. He has never finished better than 8 in 10 appearances at TPC Sawgrass, but I think this is the year Lowry claims. Florida Golf fits him, and he has played well for the last two weeks, ending T11 in Cognizant and 7th in Bay Hill. He is a favorite, but not a favorite, so he should be able to play with freedom.

Josh Sens, senior writer: Sepp Straka, +2800. Always a great ball, he finished T16 last year. This year, he enters the Sawgrass with a very improved game. This is good for a guy who seems to be in the mix almost every time he ties it.

James Colan, news editor and features: Ludwig Aberg, +1600. Smart money is betting on Scottie Scheffler this week, but I’m not smart, so I’m revolving with Aberg-a ​​talented player from the fresh Uber by the biggest victory of his new career. Players are a springboard in great championship glory, and this is the year of Aberg to do it.

Claire Rogers, Director of Social: Scottie Scheffler, +500. You know who couldn’t get it with three peat this year? Kansas City chiefs. You know who can? Scottie Scheffler in TPC Sawgrass. I think the world no. 1 makes it become (again). His latest victory was in hero World Challenge, which is about two years in the time of Scottie Scheffler. In other words, it is due to a victory this week.

Zephyr Melton, Assistant Editor: Scottie Scheffler, +500. I’m not going to overthrow this. Scottie may not have a win on his card this season, but he is still the best player on the planet. Sawgrass suits his game well, and as long as he also brings his B game, he will be on the front page of the manager’s table to come on Sunday.

Nick Pastowski, Senior Editor: Justin Thomas, +2500. The three-year extension without a victory ends here. Sawgrass requires shot form, and when he is right, JT is one of the best to do it.

Josh Berhow, Managing Editor: Scottie Scheffler, +500. I didn’t want to choose it, really didn’t, but it’s hard to ignore the boy who has won the last two who also happens to be the best player in the world and is not even close. He has not even had his best things this year and has three Top-11 conclusions on four starts. He has also rarely destroyed as others. And the pressure, as always in the swagrass, will be Emcee.

Dylan Dothier, senior writer: Daniel Berger, +5500. You guys are lame with your 5-Me-1 favorite. Gimme Berger, who is hot red and ready to make a spray on the largest PGA Tour scene. Berger is very literally doing everything well now, and he will be able to keep him in the game in difficult conditions; Rely on him to be there at the end.

2025 championship players sleepers to see

Claire Rogers, Director of Social: Michael Kim, +6600. Kim is in an extraordinary run now -five straight ends of the 13th or better, and three of them were 6 or better. (And his game on Twitter is as great as ever.) He is on the verge of massive progress, and where better this happens than players? Kim is in the sleep category until it gets the right recognition it deserves. May it be this week!

Jack Harsh, editor of associate equipment: Ben Griffin, +10000. In year 3 in PGA Tour, Griffin is probably starting the best start of a season in his new career. He was missing only one cut and accumulated the three 10th better, including T4 back-back last month. None of his statistics are really thrown out of the board, but he is within 40 balls in the strokes, means he has a comprehensive game needed to win at TPC Sawgrass.

Josh Sens, senior writer: Justin Rose, +10000. With a couple of 10 in their last three beginnings, Rose has shown a good late form. These are long chances for a brave veteran who has the patience and the iron game to plan his way around this course.

Jessica Marxbury, Senior Editor: Rickie Fowler, +10000. A former champion of players who played well in connoisseurs, but may feel an extra “proving-myself” fire in his stomach after being denied a sponsor’s invitation to Bay Hill. This week would be great time for a fowler revival.

James Colan, news editor and features: Will Zalaatoris, +6600. Hey, do you remember it? Yes, it has been a minute since we heard from Will Zalaatoris in a great moment, but he has been quietly accumulated together a series of Top-24 conclusions. It was only two years ago that he was everyone’s favorite choice to be the great winner of twenty. Now he gets a big one in TPC.

Zephyr Melton, Assistant Editor: Maverick McNealy, +6600. After recording his first tournament victory at the end of the autumn tail, Mav chose where he left in early 2025. He has the three best in six starts so far this season, and he has some previous success players, which includes a Top-10 conclusion last year. Don’t be surprised if he claims once again this time.

Nick Pastowski, Senior Editor: Sam Stevens, +15000. Instructor and analyst Mark Immelman says Stevens should receive more love. Here are some of me. Bonus selection: Max Homa, despite wars, is listed about 250-1 if low investment/big payment is your thing.

Josh Berhow, Managing Editor: Jason Day, +5000. He objected to Bay Hill up until a bad 16th bad blow ending his tour, and at +5000 to win this week I think you can argue it in the category of sleep. He has had a strong and steady season and won here before, why not again?

Dylan Dothier, old writer: Max McGrerevy, +20000. Of course, he is just the third most famous “max” in the field, but that’s why you are getting it at a beautiful price! He is finding his foot in recent weeks, hitting his excellent handcuffs and forming for a possible run this week. There are some values ​​here. I think.
