We're onto the final round of the second iteration of the Rocket Mortgage Classic at Detroit Golf Club in Detroit, Michigan, in the PGA Tour’s fourth event back in its Return to Golf plan.
Bryson DeChambeau has been in the hunt each weekend thus far since golf returned and after opening as the tournament favorite at +625, he now sits at +225, which is second on the oddsboard.
He no longer has the fave designation at the best golf betting sites as Matthew Wolff has the odds edge at +110. Wolff shot a 64 on both Friday and Saturday to sit in the driver seat at -19 and manage a three-shot lead on the field. Wolff was +1200 prior to the start of Round 3 while Webb Simpson, the favorite after Round 2, has dropped to +2200 from a horrendous Saturday where he finished with a 71 (-13).
As for DeChambeau, he's in second place at -16 and is tied with Ryan Armour (+1100) in that spot. The 26-year-old has lived up expectations thus far in his first Rocket Mortgage Classic and has finished T-3, T-8 and T-6 in the first three events back after the PGA Tour’s hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Here’s a helpful outline of some of the different betting options for the Rocket Mortgage Classic to help you decide which wager(s) would be best for you.
Props
Golf is unique for many reasons, but one of them is the significant number of betting props available.
Due to the lack of sports happening, sportsbooks are going all out for golf tournaments right now, offering odds on things like whether there will be a hole-in-one, OVER/UNDERs on the winning score for the eventual champion and odds on golfers to make or miss the cut, to name a few. Similar to other sports, props are a fun way to enhance your betting experience.
Live Betting
Live betting is an exhilarating way to watch golf. If the player you placed a pre-tournament bet on is out of the running at any point during the event, you can easily get back in the game by wagering on another golfer as the days go by.
If there are only a few men in the hunt on the final day, the odds likely won’t be significantly high, but your chances of winning are.
Depending on your sportsbook, you should be able to access live betting options during most PGA Tour tournaments.
