First-round leader odds for 2022 John Deere Classic

We break down the odds to lead after the first round at the John Deere Classic this weekend.

Why is Adam Hadwin the favorite at the John Deere Classic?

While the field is a bit of a disappointment, there is still $7.1 million on the line for the winner of the 2022 John Deere Classic at TPC Deere Run in Silvis, Illinois this week.

While the odds for the winner are available as well, here we’ll focus on who will be the leader after the first 18 holes at what should be a birdie-fest just outside of the Quad Cities on the other side of the Iowa border.

The pick: Jason Day +5000

Day missed the cut at the Travelers Championship last weekend, and started with a 71 in both the PGA Championship as well as The Memorial. But before that he opened with a 65, 63, and 68 in his last three outings on the PGA TOUR. The Australian has the ability to go low, and often does so earlier in the week than later.

Against what is not exactly a dominating field this week, Day can certainly get his tour status back with a win this week on a course that should favor his game. He’s 108th on the FedEx Cup points list, and is not exempt for next year as of now. So we’ll pick him to be the leader after 18 holes, but what Day really needs is a win to be exempt for both the FedEx Cup Playoffs this year, as well as on the PGA TOUR thru the end of 2024.
