Sony Open 2025 Odds, Picks And Props

The Sony Open is the first full-field PGA Tour event of the year, and I’ve chipped in Sony Open 2025 odds and coverage at Forbes with a tournament preview and information you can bet on. Check out more in the article with tee times, featured groups, course info, picks and betting info beyond what’s provided here at Vegas Sports Zone.

Following last week’s Sentry event in Maui, that included a record-scoring win by Hideki Matsuyama (-35) over Collin Morikawa (-32) with final round coverage and adjusted odds, I chip in more PGA Tour golf coverage with picks, props and matchups of interest.

Last week’s Sentry was played on the 3rd longest tour course (7,596 yards – par 73) and this week’s Waialae course is the 5th-shortest on tour (7,044 – par 70).

There may be fewer tournament matchup picks posted in 2025 with coverage across various platforms. I’ll try to add more picks and props and update more coverage as time allows and I dig deeper into strokes gained stats and weekly tournaments. Reach me directly at [email protected] for questions and select picks I bet on beyond what’s posted here.

Next week it’s The American Express in La Quinta, CA, where we cashed in big ‘Dog tournament matchup winner on Cantlay over Scheffler in 2024, and favorite matchup on Eric Cole. In 2023 it was a Round 1 winner on Cameron Young on our only posted play. We also cashed a tournament matchup winner on Doug Ghim over Andrew Landry (cut) in the 2022 American Express tournament.
