PGA Tour - ISCO Championship

July 11, 2024


The ISCO Championship is the same week as another popular PGA Tour tournament, the Scottish Open. Bettors can tune in on Thursday, July 11th, at the Keene Trace Golf Club for a co-sanctioned event with the DP World Tour. Golfers will compete for a share of the $4,000,000 purse, and Luke Clanton is the current favorite at +1175.


ISCO Championship Betting Preview


The ISCO Championship has been held at the Keene Trace Golf Club in Nicholasville, Kentucky, since 2018. This event was formerly known as the Barbasol Championship, but the sponsor changed this season.


The course is a Par 72 measuring roughly 7,330 yards. Expect a barrage of birdies and low scores throughout the tournament as winners pass over the -20 mark.


A clear path to victory is different for everyone. There have been winners who are heavy hitters off the tee and those who primarily excel with their irons. Either way, you have to have an opportunity for those birdies.


Golfers That Could Win


Since this is an alternative field of golfers not playing in the Scottish Open and the upcoming Open Championship, plenty have something to prove. Below are some who could make a good showing here.

Michael Thorbjornsen +1825

Thorbjornsen is coming off of a T2 finish at the John Deere Classic. He has the skills necessary to score at a high volume here, especially with a -24 outing in his last event.

Benjamin Silverman +2800

Silverman's recent play appeals to me. He is returning after a T18 finish at the John Deere Classic and a T17 finish at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. If he can withstand a competitive few rounds, he has a shot at winning this.

JJ Spaun +3900

Spaun is a great value play to finish in the top 10 and potentially win. He has a recent T23 at the John Deere Classic and a T10 at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. His game translates well to this course and could be a steal at this price.



Odds, Series Trends, and Free Pick


MyBookie has provided the latest PGA Tour betting odds for the ISCO Championship showdown. Luke Clanton is the more appealing pick of this tournament, as he has excellent momentum.


He is the first amateur to land in the top 10 on the PGA Tour in over 60 years. He had a 10th-place finish at the Rocket Mortgage Classic and recently placed T2 at the John Deere Classic.


While he could not land an invitation to The Open, he has another opportunity to prove he is ready to turn pro. Look for him to be motivated for a victory.


Final Pick: Luke Clanton +1175
