The 2026 Austin Championship continues the PGA Tour season with the event at Omni Barton Creek Resort in Austin, Texas, welcoming 120 world-class players to the PGA Tour event.

The 2026 Austin Championship betting odds indicate this week's favorite is Doug Ghim, who comes in at +1300 betting odds.

Jackson Koivun is 15-to-1 as he looks to add to his win in the 3M Open earlier this year.

Blades Brown is 18-to-1, seeking an opportunity to go back-to-back after a breakthrough win last week.

2026 Austin Championship betting picks

The Austin Championship is the seventh event of the FedEx Cup Fall, with this being the first year for the tournament.

Barton Creek should be pretty easy for these guys, playing like a classic Fazio design that should yield plenty of birdies for players that can keep the ball in play.

Austin Smotherman has to get some love here, just because of his number. He's won his last two starts, and that doesn't get him much market respect.

Sudarshan Yellamaraju should thrive in a set up like this one, playing steady golf and not being too worried about overpowering the place.

Adrien Dumont De Chassart might be a worthy longshot, having showed up pretty well the last four times out and needing a big move these last two weeks.
