🏆 Who is the favorite to win John Deere Classic?

Ben Griffin (+1500)

Ben Griffin stands out as a strong favorite for the John Deere Classic thanks to his steady ball-striking and ability to gain strokes in all four major categories. TPC Deere Run typically rewards precision and strong iron play, which fits Griffin’s consistent approach profile.

He has shown the ability to compete in birdie-fests, staying patient while capitalizing on scoring opportunities. With a weaker field compared to Signature Events, Griffin’s combination of form, accuracy, and course fit gives him a clear path to contend and potentially close out the tournament.


💰 Pick to win John Deere Classic

Here's my early pick to win John Deere Classic as part of our golf picks this week.

Keegan Bradley (+2200)

Keegan Bradley is a strong win candidate at the John Deere Classic thanks to his elite iron play and experience on scoring-friendly PGA Tour setups. TPC Deere Run rewards precise approach shots and hot putting weeks, both areas where Bradley can spike at a high level when his game is clicking.

His ball-striking gives him repeated birdie looks, and in a weaker field, that upside becomes even more valuable. If he gains confidence early with his irons, Bradley has the ability to separate and control the leaderboard on a low-scoring weekend.
