With only one more regular season event prior to the FedEx Cup Playoffs, the PGA Tour will showcase an intriguing tournament this week. The 2023 Wyndham Championship is the final week of the regular season, with all eyes on Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina. Defending champion Tom Kim is not in the field due to a withdrawal, though the Wyndham Championship 2023 field is jam-packed with sky-high stakes. In addition to the pursuit of a tournament win, the top 70 players in the FedEx Cup standings advance to next week's playoffs, meaning every stroke counts on the par-70 layout.
Sungjae Im (+1600) is the betting favorite in the latest 2023 Wyndham Championship odds, followed by Hideki Matsuyama (+1800) and Sam Burns (+2000). In addition to the top contenders, can Justin Thomas (+2800) find his form and provide strong value among your 2023 Wyndham Championship fantasy golf picks? Before considering any 2023 Wyndham Championship fantasy golf picks or PGA Tour bets, be sure to see the Wyndham Championship fantasy golf rankings from SportsLine handicapper Eric Cohen.
Cohen is an avid golf bettor who correctly predicted the pre-tournament outright winner of the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic (Rickie Fowler +1400), 2023 PGA Championship (Brooks Koepka +2000), 2023 Honda Classic (Chris Kirk +3500), 2022 Open Championship (Cameron Smith +2200), 2022 U.S. Open (Matt Fitzpatrick +2500), and 2022 Phoenix Open (Scottie Scheffler's first career victory at +2800).

Now, Cohen has ranked his top golfers for the 2023 Wyndham Championship. Cohen's picks are only available at SportsLine.
2023 Wyndham Championship expert picks
Cohen is buying Si Woo Kim this week, seeing him as a great value at his odds. Kim ranks in the top 25 on the PGA Tour in strokes gained overall this season and also in the top 20 in strokes gained tee-to-green, strokes gained approach, one-putt percentage, and driving accuracy percentage. Kim is also above-average in putts per round, scrambling percentage, and sand save percentage. Kim is a previous winner at this event in 2016 and has four top-five finishes at the course. He has five top-10 finishes on tour this season as well, including a win in Hawaii at the Sony Open.
On the flip side, the expert is fading Matsuyama. He acknowledges Matsuyama is a strong player, as evidenced by his placement near the top of the odds board. However, Matsuyama has clear issues on the greens, leading to overall skepticism compared to his odds. Matsuyama is 124th on the PGA Tour in strokes gained putting this season. He is also outside the top 70 on tour in putting average, putts per round, one-putt percentage, three-putt avoidance, and putting accuracy inside 10 feet. Matsuyama also has four missed cuts at the Wyndham Championship, including his last two efforts in 2019 and 2021. See all of Cohen's Wyndham Championship picks at SportsLine.
