Korn Ferry Tour UNC Health Championship Betting Predictions to Win

The Korn Ferry Tour heads to the East Coast for the 2023 UNC Health Championship presented by STITCH at the Raleigh Country Club in Raleigh, North Carolina. Tournament play begins with the opening round on Thursday, June 1st, and the four-day, stroke play event concludes on Sunday, June 4th. The event has been played under various sponsorship titles since 1994.

Davis Thompson is the defending champion after a two-shot victory over Vincent Norrman last season. Thompon’s 17-under par earned the now PGA Tour pro his first and only professional win. Past champions of the event include Mito Pereira, Trey Mullinax, Chesson Hadley, and Mark Hensby. Kyle Thompson is the only two-time winner of the tournament.

This is the first time the tournament is being teed up at Raleigh Country Club, previously being played at The Country Club of Wakefield Plantation. The purse for the tournament is $1,000,000, with the winner also earning coveted KFT points in an attempt to secure a PGA Tour card for next season.

The Course

The Raleigh Country Club went through an extensive renovation in 2020 under the direction of architect Kyle Franz. The original Donald Ross-design, which dates back to 1948, is a par-71 that plays over 7,300 yards from the back tees. Raleigh Country Club features three par-5s and four par-3s, highlighted by the 274-yard par-3 sixth hole.

The Field

Rico Hoey, fresh off his victory at the Knoxville Open in Knoxville, Tennessee last week, headlines the list of participants in the event. Joining Hoey is current points list leader Ben Kohles. Brett Drewitt, Scott Gutschewski, Pierceson Coody, Rhein Gibson, Chandler Phillips, and Cody Blick round out the current top 10 players in the field in terms of points.

Other notable players in the field include Patrick Flavin, Tommy Gainey, Brandon Hagy, Hank Lebioda, Spencer Levin, and Grayson Murray. 

The Favorites

The field is packed with former PGA Tour winners and up-and-coming future PGA Tour pros. Along with its share of top American players, the field is filled with some of the top, young international talent. 

Ben Kohles
A two-time winner this season, Kohles is already headed back to the PGA Tour after making his debut in 2012. A win in Raleigh would give the 33-year-old his third win in the season and automatic status on the Tour.

Scott Gutschewski
A past winner of this event, Gutschewski comes into the week sitting sixth in the points list with one win already under his belt this season. The 46-year-old has bounced between the development circuit and the PGA Tour over the past few years, with a return to form in his mid-40s. He has four top-25 finishes this season, including a T5 last month at the AdventHealth Championship.

Spencer Levin
Levin is well-known amongst golf professionals for his career on the PGA Tour, along with his mini-tour success. Levin won the Veritex Bank Championship in mid-April after Monday qualifying for the event and now has nearly locked up his PGA Tour card. Levin has made three of four cuts since his victory.
