Odds to Win 2009 John Deere Classic
Written by Jack Jones
This week’s John Deere odds don’t exactly showcase the who’s who of the PGA Tour since most of the top golfers are prepping for the British Open odds next week. However, the John Deere Classic does boast a few of the Tour’s hottest players and should come down to the wire. Let’s look at a few strong picks.
KENNY PERRY (+715)
The excellent ball striker Perry sets up well to win this event, as TPC Deere Run plays easy. He won his last tournament and there’s that other little detail of him winning the John Deere last year. He’s back on his feet after slumping post-Masters, so he’s a very solid betting management play this week.
DAVID TOMS (+1615)
TPC Deere Run is a shotmakers course — the last 11 winners there have finished between 16-under and 22-under — and Toms is set up perfectly to be all over the stick. He leads the Tour in driving accuracy, he’s second in scoring average, and he’s playing well, with two second-place finishes in his last three starts. He offers much better sportsbook value than Perry, so you have to consider him.
LUCAS GLOVER (+1615)
The U.S. Open champ looks like anything but a one-hit wonder, as he followed up his win by placing 11th and fifth in his next two tournaments. He’s tops on Tour in total driving and fifth in birdie average, so he could score well.
CHAD CAMPBELL (+5250)
Major long shot here, but don’t count him out. He finished seventh last year shot three straight 67s. In eight rounds at the John Deere classic, Campbell has never finished over par. He flat-out plays well here, so you have to like his huge value.
Best betting management pick: David Toms +1615
