The 2021/22 PGA Tour playoffs continue after the end of the FedEx St Jude Championship and now we move on to Wilmington, Delaware, the city that will host the 2022 BMW Championshipwhich is the second tournament of these playoffs and the penultimate competition in this season of the main golf circuit around the world.
It has already been proved that quality makes these instances of the season extremely competitive, and we do not expect anything different from this new competition, for which JefeBet will once again provide predictions as well as odds.
2022 BMW Championship Betting Preview
- Where: Wilmington Country Club, Wilmington, Delaware
- When: Thursday, August 18th – August 21st
Picks
Will Zalatoris (Odds +1400)
Will Zalatoris finally won his first PGA Tour championship, and he did it when it mattered most, beating Sepp Straka in the FedEx St Jude Championship playoff to move into the lead in the FedEx standings.
With that thorn out of his side and given his talent as a golfer, Zalatoris will undoubtedly finish among the top three in the 2022 BMW Championship, and he is in a strong position to get back-to-back victories.
Jon Rahm (Odds +1400)
Jon Rahm has not been at his best this PGA Tour season compared to the last one, but a fifth place finish at the last FedEx St Jude Championship shows that he could be back to his best when it matters most.
In addition to this, Rahm finished ninth in the last edition of this tournament (although it was in a different golf course), which only goes to show that the Spaniard can give his best in these defining instances.
Matt Fitzpatrick (Odds +1600)
Matt Fitzpatrick raised his game when it counted, as his fifth place at the recent FedEx St Jude Championship is just one of numerous outstanding outcomes he’s had recently.
Since the beginning of May, Fitzpatrick has finished in the top ten in six of the eight tournaments he has participated in, including a victory at the U.S. Open, which remains his only career trophy, or so it may be until this competition.
Sleeper Picks
Collin Morikawa (Odds +1800)
Morikawa’s recent results have been inconsistent, with him finishing fifth in two of his previous five tournaments, including the most recent FedEx St Jude Championship, and missing the cut in two others.
However, there will be no cut to slow him down this time, and Morikawa has demonstrated throughout his career that he possesses the necessary qualities, so many consider him one of the contenders to win this tournament.
Sungjae Im (Odds +2500)
Sungjae Im was the hottest golfer on the PGA Tour heading into these playoffs, having finished second in the 3M and Rocket Mortgage, and although he finished 12th in the opening tournament of these playoffs, he continued to prove that he has what it takes to fight for the championship.
With such good odds, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to consider the Korean among the winners, especially after finishing third in the last edition of the tournament.
Dark Horse
Adam Scott (Odds +5000)
Adam Scott’s season has been fairly quiet, but the FedEx St Jude Championship saw him achieve one of his best finishes so far by being one of the golfers tied for fifth place.
With 42 years of expertise and PGA Tour championships to his name, the Australian veteran might show his competitors that experience often trumps youth, especially in these crucial situations.
