The 2026 Fortinet Founders Cup continues the 2026 LPGA Tour schedule with the event at Sharon Heights Golf and Country Club in Menlo Park, California, welcoming 144 world-class players to the LPGA event.

The 2026 Fortinet Founders Cup betting odds indicate this week's LPGA Tour betting favorite is Jeeno Thitikul, who comes in at 6-to-1 (+600) betting odds. Thitikul finished the year brilliantly, and she looks to get going in 2026 with a win.

Nelly Korda is next best on the odds board at 7-to-1 to start the week, and she looks to build on her win in Orlando to start the year.

Lydia Ko sitting on 20-to-1, looking for a great start to her year after a strong opener in Orlando.

2026 Fortinet Founders Cup betting picks

This week, the LPGA is back stateside for the Founders Cup, which is meant to be a celebrating of the LPGA history, pioneers and endurance. This is a new venue for the tournament, so there's not a ton to be said for course history.

Auston Kim would be an interesting value pick given that she's been close to breaking through for quite a while now.

Chiara Tamburlini might be worth a long-longshot play as this course seems to resemble ones she would like on the Ladies European Tour.

Chizzy Iwai has played well to start the year, so perhaps that continues this week.
