The 2025 Simmons Bank Open continues the Korn Ferry Tour season with the event at Vanderbilt Legends Club in Franklin, Tennessee, welcoming 139 world-class players to the Korn Ferry Tour's first event of the season-ending series.
The 2025 Simmons Bank Open betting odds indicate this week's favorite is Neal Shipley, who comes in at 16-to-1 (+1600) betting odds.
Johnny Keefer is 18-to-1 this week and second on the odds table this week, as he looks to earn a third Korn Ferry Tour win this season.
Emilio Gonzalez is third on the board at 20-to-1 heading into the week, and he won the last event in Boise.

2025 Simmons Bank Open betting picks
The Simmons Bank Open is the first leg of the Korn Ferry Tour Finals, with relatively small cuts for the first two events before a huge cut to the top 75 in the points list after the Compliance Solutions Championship in Oklahoma.
Emilio Gonzalez makes a lot of sense here as he was T-3 last year, has already won this season, and he's on a roll.
Chandler Blanchet is going to get play here for the same reason, finishing T-15 in this event last year.
Blades Brown is going to be on my list this week, as he's got everything to play for and practically nothing to lose.
