After a week off, the PGA Tour now transitions to its fall schedule, beginning with the 2024 Procore Championship. It’s the 1st event of the FedExCup Fall and will once again be hosted by Silverado Resort in Napa, Calif. The 1st round will begin on Thursday morning from the West Coast.
Below, we look at BetMGM Sportsbook’s 2024 Procore Championship odds and make our PGA Tour picks and predictions.
While it’s not a very strong field, there are a handful of big names in the field, including the defending champion, Sahith Theegala (+1100). Wyndham Clark (+1100) and Max Homa (+1800) are also teeing it up, along with Presidents Cup member Corey Conners. (+1400). Players ranked outside the top 70 in the FedExCup standings will benefit the most from the FedExCup Fall schedule, giving them a chance to remain in the top 125 and earn exempt status before next season begins.
Silverado Resort is a shorter course at just 7,123 yards as a par 72. It’s a traditional layout with tree-lined fairways, requiring accuracy off the tee to set up approaches into Poa Annua greens.

Procore Championship – Expert picks
Odds provided by BetMGM Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated Monday at 6:19 p.m. ET.
Sahith Theegala (+1100)
Theegala comes into this week red-hot after surging at the Tour Championship in Atlanta, finishing 3rd after a terrific 4 days at East Lake Golf Club. He obviously plays well here, having won the event last year (his 1st on tour) at 21-under-par, and he’s a California native who played at Pepperdine. It’s chalky, but he’s the best player in the field.
Brendon Todd (+3300)
Todd is a short hitter, but that doesn’t hurt him as much at a course like Silverado. It’s no surprise he’s finished 22nd and 6th in the last 2 years, and he also comes into the week in good form with finishes of 12th and 22nd in his last 2 starts this season.

Procore Championship picks – Contenders
Eric Cole (+4000)
Cole, another California native, feels like the perfect fit for this tournament. It’s a weaker field in his home state and he finished 4th in his debut last year. He has a top-10 and another top-20 finish in his last 3 starts last season so he’s playing well at the moment, too.
Patrick Rodgers (+4000)
Rodgers isn’t from California, but he played his college golf at Stanford, so he knows all about West Coast golf. He didn’t play the event last year, but he finished 6th in 2022 and has made the cut in each of his last 4 tries at this tournament.
Procore Championship picks – Long shots
Chad Ramey (+12500)
Ramey missed the cut in 2022, but he finished 19th last year. He’s played fairly well this season, finishing 13th, 24th and 52nd in his last 3 starts. For a dart throw, he checks the boxes of course history and recent form.
Henrik Norlander (+15000)
Norlander has gone 0-for-3 in making the cut here, which is slightly concerning. However, he finished 8th in his most recent start and had a stretch recently where he came in 12th, 11th and 24th in 3 straight events.
