The 2025 Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship continues the Korn Ferry Tour season with the event at the Scarlet Course at the Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, welcoming 144 world-class players to the Korn Ferry Tour's second event of the season-ending series.
The 2025 Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship betting odds indicate this week's favorite is Johnny Keefer, who comes in at 14-to-1 (+1400) betting odds.
Taylor Montgomery is 16-to-1 this week and second on the odds table this week, as he looks to earn a full PGA Tour card back through the Korn Ferry Tour.
Neal Shipley is third on the board at 20-to-1 heading into the week, as he seeks a third Korn Ferry Tour win this season.

2025 Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship betting picks
The Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship is the second 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.
Hank Lebioda will be on my radar this week, as this tournament was essential last year to getting to the season-ending event in Indiana.
Joe Weiler is worth a longshot play this week given some decent results in Nashville last week.
Austin Smotherman should have some edge playing on a tougher course that's more like the PGA Tour.
