The RSM Classic 2025 Intro
That went fast.
Back in January, Hideki Matsuyama captured the season-opening Sentry tournament in Hawaii.
Now, the PGA TOUR is heading to its 46th and final event of 2025 with plenty at stake for the annual visit to St. Simons Island in Georgia.
At the end of this week, the top 100 in the standings will secure cards for 2026 and there are plenty of players hanging around the bubble.
Some wrapped it up in Bermuda last week where the winds blew hard.
Thankfully, the forecast this week is for much calmer conditions.
That means the winning score is likely to be in the 20-unders after Maverick McNealy got it done with 16-under in more testing weather 12 months ago.
Sea Island Resort in Georgia plays host once more and the tournament uses two short courses with Bermuda greens.
For the opening two rounds, The Plantation Course and The Seaside Course host 18 holes each before those making the cut (low 65 and ties) head back to the Seaside for the final 36.

Favorites to Win the RSM Classic 2025
Harris English (+2000) at bet365
The Georgia Bulldog has had a season to remember with a win at Torrey Pines, two second places in the majors and a Ryder Cup debut. But this is his first start since the USA’s defeat at Bethpage in September so he could be rusty. In truth, he’s rather underwhelmed at Sea Island. A closing 62 in 2020 elevated English to sixth but that’s his only top 10 and you’ll find more missed cuts than top 25s.

Brian Harman (+2200) at bet365
The lefty hasn’t played much golf either in the last couple of months but he did pitch up in the Far East to finish 26th at the India Championship in October. Harman promised much better after sitting second at halfway and fourth with a round to go. The 2023 Open champion was runner-up here in 2022 and fourth in 2017. He has another pair of top 25s in his last eight visits and has cashed in seven of those.

Michael Thorbjornsen (+2200) at bet365
It’s a matter of ‘when’ not ‘if’ in terms of the super-talented Thorbjornsen getting a first PGA TOUR win. He made a big impression on his tournament debut last year, opening with a 62 and finishing eighth. Three starts ago Thorbjornsen was third at the Baycurrent Classic in Japan while he’s only finished worse than 38th on one of his last 10 starts.

Whaley for the Win
In a field very short of top quality, Vince Whaley looks to have a golden chance of securing his first PGA TOUR win.
Current form has been a far better predictor than course form in this event although, for good measure, Whaley has both.
The 30-year-old hasn’t missed a cut for seven months and in his last three starts he owns third-place finishes at both the Sanderson Farms Championship and last week’s Bermuda Championship.
Whatever the conditions, Whaley seems to score well, a testament to his strong short game.
Last week in Bermuda he ranked 4th for Scrambling and 9th for Putting Average.
Putting isn’t always everything in PGA Tour events but it does seem to count for plenty here as the last five winners all rolled it well in the week of their wins.
As for tournament form, Whaley was 13th in 2023 and eighth last year.
He shot Saturday scores of 64 and 63 in those two events and also opened with a 63 in 2021 so it’s a place where he can go low.
Back the in-form Whaley at the attractive each-way odds of +4000 (1/5 1-2-3-4-5-6) with BetMGM.

Power a Worthy Pick
We landed another winning match bet last week when that man Whaley beat rising star Michael Brennan by six shots.
With two courses being used here, at the time of writing match-ups haven’t been published.
Therefore, let’s add a second each-way play.
The golfer to go for is Ireland’s Seamus Power, who is definitely coming back to form after a poor first half of the season.
He’s made seven of his last eight cuts and caught the eye in Bermuda last week when 11th. And that after a poor finish.
Power has a strong record in coastal events with a previous win in Bermuda the highlight.
In this event, two of his previous three visits have resulted in top fives so it looks the perfect place for the double PGA TOUR winner to try and save his card or at least gain some decent status for 2026.
Back Power each-way at +5000 (1/5 1-2-3-4-5-6) with BetMGM.

McGreevy for Top 10
Max McGreevy was third in Bermuda on Sunday and last November captured the prestigious Dunlop Phoenix Tournament in Japan - an event won by Tiger Woods, Seve Ballesteros and a host of other big names.
With three top 12 in his last four starts, McGreevy is playing some consistent golf and looks a good bet to keep that going here.
Back the three-time Korn Ferry Tour winner at +550 with bet365 to finish in the top 10.
