🏆 Who'll win the Truist Championship?

Here are my golf picks for Round 3 of the Truist Championship on Saturday:

Rory McIlroy (+500)

Rory McIlroy sits T-9 at -5, just four shots off the lead at the Truist Championship, and I’m still backing him to win this event. His pedigree at Quail Hollow is unmatched, with multiple victories on this course that reward elite driving and long-iron control. Even when he starts slow, McIlroy consistently gains momentum as tournaments progress, especially on setups that demand power and precision.

At -5, he’s positioned well within striking distance, and the leaderboard remains bunched enough for a Sunday charge. If his driver stays hot and he cleans up the putter, his closing ability gives him a clear path to another signature win.

💰 Best Round 3 props for the Truist Championship

Justin Thomas: Top 5 finish (-110)

Justin Thomas is perfectly positioned to finish in the top 5 at the Truist Championship as he sits T-3 at -7, just two shots off the lead. His form this week has been sharp, especially off the tee and on approach, where he’s generating consistent birdie looks. Quail Hollow suits his game well, rewarding aggressive iron play and confident scoring stretches, both of which Thomas has shown through the first three rounds.

Even when pressure builds on Sunday, he has a proven track record of contending in elite fields and closing strong in signature events. At -7, he’s firmly in control of his own destiny and well within striking range of the leaders. If he maintains his current ball-striking and avoids costly mistakes, Thomas has all the tools to secure a top-5 finish and possibly push for even more in the final round.

Ludvig Aberg: Top 10 finish (-130)

Ludvig Aberg is in a strong position to finish inside the Top 10 at the Truist Championship, sitting T-12 at -4 and just one shot outside the current top 10. His all-around game continues to translate well at the highest level, with elite driving distance and a calm, efficient approach style that fits demanding championship setups.

Aberg doesn’t waste scoring opportunities, and when he finds a rhythm, he tends to stack birdies quickly without getting too aggressive. Being only one shot back of the top 10 makes his path straightforward: a clean moving day round and steady execution on Sunday. His ball-striking consistency gives him a clear advantage over much of the chasing pack. If he maintains his current level of control off the tee and converts more mid-range putts, Aberg has every reason to climb into the top 10 and solidify another strong finish.

Corey Conners: Top Canadian (+140)

Corey Conners is well-positioned to finish as the top Canadian at the Truist Championship, especially with him currently tied with Nick Taylor at -3. When comparing their games, Conners’ elite ball-striking gives him a consistent edge in scoring opportunities over four rounds. He ranks among the best iron players on Tour, and that precision typically separates him in tightly packed leaderboards like this one.

While Nick Taylor is steady and capable of going low, Conners’ driving accuracy and ability to control approach shots give him more reliable birdie looks down the stretch. At -3, both players are within striking distance of a strong finish, but Conners’ consistency under pressure stands out. If he keeps his tee-to-green game sharp and converts a few more chances on the greens, he should edge Taylor over the final rounds and secure top Canadian honors at the Truist Championship.
