After skipping his hometown event a year ago due to the birth of his first child, Scottie Scheffler is back at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson for the sixth time in his career.
Notching his best-ever finish at TPC Craig Ranch two years ago, tying for fifth, the world No. 1 is obviously hoping for more this week, as he's still looking for his first victory of the 2025 PGA Tour season.
Despite not reaching the winner's circle, it's not as if the Dallas resident has played poorly, as he's finished ninth or better in five of his eight starts thus far, including his last three.
Scheffler is typically the betting favorite in any event in which he tees it up. But as the CJ Cup doesn't boast the strongest field in the world, featuring just seven of the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking, Scottie is a heavy favorite to hoist a trophy come Sunday afternoon and comes into the week holding +280 odds to win.
Sitting in distant second is Jordan Spieth at +1800. For those who may be unfamiliar with how betting odds work, that's a ridiculously massive gap.
Spieth famously made the cut at this event as a 16-year-old back in 2010 and owns a pair of top-10s in three starts since it moved to TPC Craig Ranch, tying for ninth in 2021 and taking solo second in 2022. He missed the cut here last year, however, so this is just another classic case of not knowing which Spieth we'll get this week.
Sungjae Im, the only other member of the OWGR top 20 in the field, sits in third at +2200.
