2026 John Deere Classic odds: Ben Griffin claims betting favorite honors

The PGA Tour heads to Illinois this week for the 2026 John Deere Classic, and a U.S. Ryder Cup team member is the betting favorite. Here is everything you need to know about the John Deere Classic odds and other betting favorites to start the week.

John Deere Classic betting favorites

Ben Griffin was a finalist for PGA Tour Player of the Year last season following a breakout campaign that saw him capture his first three PGA Tour wins.

Things haven’t gone as smoothly for Griffin in 2026. He hasn’t added another victory this year, though he has recorded three top-10 finishes, including a solo third at the Cadillac Championship and a T3 at the Charles Schwab Challenge.

With many top pros sitting this week out, Griffin comes in as the betting favorite at +1300 odds-to-win.

But unlike Scottie Scheffler in any event he’s played this season, Griffin is not a huge favorite. Right behind him on the odds list is Chris Gotterup at +1375.

Filling out the top 5 are Keith Mitchell (+1750), Keegan Bradley (+2600) and J.T. Poston (+2700).
