Analyzing the golf betting odds to win the 2020 BMW Championship, with PGA Tour betting odds, picks, predictions and best bets.

The BMW Championship boasts a 70-man field as the FedExCup Playoffs roll into Round 2. Dustin Johnson enters the week as the betting favorite at +800 following his 11-stroke victory at the Northern Trust last week. He moved to No. 1 in the FEC standings and No. 7 in the Golfweek/Sagarin world rankings. Below, we look at the betting odds to win the 2020 BMW Championship and make our PGA Tour picks and best bets.

Collin Morikawa (+2000)

Morikawa slipped from No. 2 to No. 5 in the FedExCup standings with a missed cut at The Northern Trust at TPC Boston last week. He’ll be looking to move back up and regain those all-important starting strokes for next week’s Tour Championship.

The winner of the 2020 PGA Championship just three weeks ago, Morikawa is eighth by the odds to win the BMW Championship. He’s second on Tour this season in Strokes Gained: Approach, 17th in SG: Off-the-Tee and 24th in Birdie or Better Percentage.

He’s the first golfer on the odds board offering a 20-1 or better return on investment. Ignore last week’s shaky result and back someone with two wins in his last five events at a recently-inflated price.

Gary Woodland (+6600)

Woodland enters the week 39th in the FEC standings and needs a top showing to qualify for next week’s playoff finale. The 2019 US Open champion has no wins but six top-10s this season.

He missed the cut last week while losing 1.28 strokes per round putting, according to Data Golf. He’s 14th on Tour in SG: Approach and 29th in Birdie or Better Percentage. Expect a better result with a more neutral performance with the flat stick.

Smith tied for 18th last week. While losing 0.46 strokes per round putting, he gained 1.84 strokes tee-to-green and 1.62 strokes on approach per round. He opened his 2020 season with a win at the Sony Open but doesn’t have any other top-10s in the calendar year. He’s 26th in the FEC standings and just barely holding onto his ticket to East Lake.
