Current favorites to win the Grant Thornton Invitational

Odd provided by FanDuel – accurate as of December 11

Tom Kim and Jeeno Thitiku (+500 at DraftKings sportsbook)

At the top of the odds board heading into the Grant Thornton Invitational is the team of Tom Kim and Jeeno Thitiku. Kim had a fantastic year on the PGA Tour where he recorded one runner-up finish to go along with two top 10 results and seven top 25’s in 24 events played. As for Thitiku, she has been on a serious run of late on the LPGA Tour having just won at the Tiburon Golf Club for her seventh straight top 10 finish as the 21-year-old continues to excel on the women’s tour.

Tony Finau and Nelly Korda (+600 at bet365 sportsbook)

Tony Finau returns to action for the first time since teeing it up at the Tour Championship where he finished the season tied for 23^rd. Sitting 26^th in the official world golf rankings, Finau has six career victories on the PGA Tour over his career. Finau recorded one runner-up finish this season to go along with five top 10 finishes, and 15 top 25 results over just 22 events. Meanwhile, Korda has more wins this season than Finau has in his career as she has tallied seven wins on the LPGA Tour this season. She won her second career major this season and won the LPGA Rolex Player of the Year.

Corey Conners and Brooke Henderson (+800 at Caesars Sportsbook)

The Canadian duo of Corey Conners and Brooke Henderson should be an interesting team to follow this week in Florida. Conners sits 41^st in the official world golf rankings and is coming off a season that saw him record four top 10’s and 13 top 25’s in 23 events without missing one cut. Conners will be in action for the first time since he last teed it up at the Procore Championship in the middle of September when he finished tied for seventh place. The pair finished in solo second place here last year and should once again be a force to consider.

Jason Day and Lydia Ko (+850 at FanDuel sportsbook)

Defending champions Jason Day and Lydia Ko return for another shot at the Grant Thornton Invitational as the pair look to go back-to-back and defend their title. With 13 career wins on the PGA Tour, Day certainly has the chance of being one of the all-time best players to ever tee it up in the men’s game. Last year, the pair held off Conners and Henderson to bring home the trophy by one stroke over the Canadian connection. On the LPGA Tour, Ko has won two-times here at the Tiburon Golf Club.

Sahith Theegala and Allisen Corpuz (+1200 at Caesars Sportsbook)

After a disappointing finish here last year, Sahith Theegala and teammate Allisen Corpuz return for another crack at the Tiburon Golf Club in Naples. Theegala had another impressive year on the PGA Tour as the 27-year-old recorded 2 runner-up finishes to go along with nine top 10 finishes and 12 top 25 results in 26 events. Sitting 13^th in the official world golf rankings, Theegala is certainly a player on the rise in the men’s game. For Corpuz, she won the U.S. Women’s Open last year but has been relatively quiet since that victory.

Grant Thornton Invitational longshot

Cameron Champ and Mel Reid (+8000 at bet365 sportsbook)

The longest shot on the board this week is the partnership of Cameron Champ and Mel Reid who both return for another crack at the Tiburon Golf Club, except this time they are both doing it with different partners than in the past. Champ is the closest thing to an anomaly on the PGA Tour as his game tends to be all over the place at times. He’ll contend, as shown in his three career PGA Tour titles, but then he’ll have zero top 10 finishes and just two top 25 results in 26 events, which is what he did this season. Reid hasn’t impressed that much either to date, making just two cuts in six events in 2024.
