ATLANTA – On Sunday, the betting odds for the PGA TOUR Championship 3rd Round shifted a bit. But, the shift isn’t exactly congruent with the current standings. This highlights sports bettors and sportsbooks trust in the top dogs that entered the tournament.
Those betting on the PGA TOUR knew that coming into the event that certain golfers were awarded an advantageous score based on their past performances.
Golfers like Dustin Johnson came in ranked first and started with a 10 under head start. Behind him was John Rahm with 8 under, Justin Thomas with 7 under, Webb Simpson with 6 under, Collin Marikawa with 5 under, a group of golfers at 4 under, and so on.
One of those golfers from the group of 4 under was Sungjae Im. After an incredible performance in day 2 of the tournament, Sungjae Im finds himself in second place at -12 under while Dustin Johnson has maintained his top spot at -13 under.
But, the odds tell a different story.

Despite falling 4 spots after round 2, bettors are still going all in on Jon Rahm to be able to bounce back and top the boards after Sunday. Rahm currently sits at 9 under and is tied at 5th place so he’ll need some help along with a great performance to prove sportsbooks right.
However, for bettors looking to ride the momentum of the tournament, odds for Sungjae Im would net bettors a substantially higher payout.
Sungjae Im won The Honda Classic earlier this year, and while that’s the only win of his career, he’s proven he has the capacity to outplay some of the best in the sport.
Legal sports betting will have live betting odds so those watching the third round action can possibly hedge this bet. There are also plenty of golfer vs. golfer prop bets that will give PGA fans some action on Sunday.
