Cameron Smith is listed as the favorite to win this week’s LIV Golf Chicago event. There are just two events remaining in the LIV regular season which will determine the individual champion and decide seedings for the season-ending team event. Smith is coming off a record-setting win in Bedminster, blitzing the field by seven shots. Smith is also the defending champion, having won the inaugural LIV Golf Chicago event a year ago. Smith is listed at +700 at Caesars. Six other players are listed with golf betting odds of less than 20-1. They are Bryson DeChambeau at +900, Brooks Koepka at +1000, Dustin Johnson at +1200, Patrick Reed at +1400, Talor Gooch at +1600 and Mito Pereira at +1800 Let’s look at LIV Golf Chicago picks.

Venue: Rich Harvest Farms Golf Course is a par 72 that measures 7,735 yards. It features a raucous 17^th hole where fans will be seated all around and where there will be a live DJ and walk-up music.

Notes: Cameron Smith can wrap up the individual title with a win this week if Talor Gooch doesn’t finish fourth or better. Only nine players are still alive to win the title. Smith currently leads Gooch by 21 points and he is 50 points clear of Patrick Reed.4Aces GC has a slight lead over Torque GC in the team standings.

Last Year: Cameron Smith won this event, winning by three shots over Dustin Johnson and Peter Uihlein.

Favorite

Cameron Smith +700

If you have followed golf for any length of time and followed my picks you will know that golf betting favorites don’t win that often and they definitely don’t win often enough to be profitable. Maybe Smith wins this week, but I am not taking him at odds this low.

Value Picks

Bryson DeChambeau +900

It is all about driving distance this week and DeChambeau ranks 4^th on the LIV Tour in driving distance. He has really played well the last few months and he played well at this event a year ago. It would be nicer if we got DeChambeau at double-digit odds, but I can’t ignore the way he has been playing of late and his distance off the tee.

Dustin Johnson +1200

Johnson still hits the ball a long way, as he ranks 3^rd in driving distance on the tour. He has seven top 15 finishes this season and he should be in the mix this week and we get DJ at double-digit odds.

Dean Burmester +2000

I sure was hoping for better odds than 20-1 on Burmester but the oddsmakers know the same thing that I know and that is Burmester hits the ball a long way. He is 2^nd on the LIV Golf Tour in driving distance this season. He could definitely be in the mix on Sunday and we get decent odds.

Jason Kokrak +3500

Kokrak went and finished in a tie for 4^th in an Asian Tour International Series event at the end of August. He has gained strokes in four of his last five events overall and we know he can hit the ball a ton. I think there is some value on Kokrak at these odds.

Peter Uihlein +6500

I don’t get the odds on Uihlein being this high. He was rolling early in the season and then fell off. He has had a month off to get ready and he leads the LIV Golf Tour in driving distance. I think he can win this week and we get 65-1 odds.
