2023 Shriners Children’s Open Odds Plus Betting Analysis on the Top Favorites

The PGA Tour makes its annual stop in Las Vegas, Nevada, for the 41st edition of the Shriners Children’s Open. A mainstay on the Tour’s fall schedule, the event has been played at various courses around Sin City but has settled at TPC Summerlin, just west of the Strip, since 2014. Once played over five days, the event was shortened to a standard four-day event beginning on Thursday, October 12th.

Fan favorite, Tom Kim, returns to the desert to defend his 2022 title. Kim became the second golfer since Tiger Woods to win a pair of PGA Tour events before the age of 21. His four-day total of 260 (24-under par) was good enough for a three-shot cushion over Patrick Cantlay and Matthew NeSmith.

The Shriners is the third of seven events apart of the FedExCup Fall schedule, which brings added drama to this event as players sitting outside the top 50 jockey for positioning in the rankings. Players ranked inside the top 125 at the conclusion of the RSM Classic will retain their Tour status for next season.

Let’s take a closer look at the upcoming Shriners Children’s Open tournament so you can bet against the PGA betting lines with MyBookie.

2023 Shriners Children’s Open | 40th edition of the Shriners Children’s Open – Third event of the fall portion of the schedule
Monday, October 9th – Sunday, October 15th, 2023
TPC at Summerlin, Las Vegas, Nevada

TPC at Summerlin

The private golf club is a member of the Tournament Players Club and is operated by the PGA Tour. The par 71 track measures approximately 7,255 feet and sits at 2,700 feet above sea level. Designed by Bobby Weed, the course incorporates many features of the desert landscape.

One unique feature of the course is the abundance of water on the property. Players will need to be accurate both off the tee and with their approaches to avoid falling victim to the water hazards.

The Field

Five players inside the top 50 in the current rankings are in action this week, with Kim leading the charge. Joining Kim are Nick Taylor, Si Woo Kim, Adam Schenk, and Emiliano Grillo. 

Ludvig Aberg, fresh off a Ryder Cup win and T2 at last week’s Sanderson Farms Championship, continues his quest to rise up the rankings this week. Aberg, a 23-year-old from Sweden and Texas Tech standout won the Omega European Masters at the beginning of September.

LPGA Tour veteran and 11-time winner Lexi Thompson earned a sponsor exemption and will test her game against the men. Thompson becomes the seventh female to earn a spot in a PGA Tour event.

Other notables in the field include European Ryder Cup members Nicolai Hojgaard, Akshay Bhatia, Webb Simpson, Eric Cole, and Joel Dahmen.

2023 Shriners Children’s Open Betting Favorites

Tom Kim enters the first round as the betting favorite at +1150. The 21-year-old suffered an ankle injury in late summer and has played sparingly since. Kim wrapped up the FedExCup Playoffs with respectable finishes of T24, T10, and T20.

Aberg (+1225) is another favorite and comes in playing solid golf. Swedish pro currently sits at 113th in the standings.

Si Woo Kim (+2100), Cameron Davis (+2300), Adam Schenk (+2900), and JT Poston (+2900) round out the betting favorites. Schenk remains searching for his first PGA Tour victory while Kim, Davis, and Poston look to get back into the winner’s circle this week.
