The Tournament Contenders

The American Express, formerly the Desert Classic, is a popular tournament on the PGA Tour. The inaugural edition, won by the great Arnold Palmer, took place way back in 1960 as the Palm Springs Desert Golf Classic.

The best in the world are still finding their feet in 2025, but this promises to be a special tournament on Californian soil. Nick Dunlap stunned the golfing world by taking home the crown last year, seeing off Christiaan Bezuidenhout by 1 stroke.

Justin Thomas and Im Sung-jae are the joint-favourites to win the 2025 version, both priced at 13.00. Elsewhere in the betting, Sam Burns is available at 15.00, Patrick Cantlay is currently priced at 17.00, and Tony Finau and Wyndham Clark are 25.00.

With the tournaments coming thick and fast and The Players Championship on the horizon, the top players are looking for their best form. This weekend’s American Express in the Golden State promises thrills and spills.

Will Thomas Secure First Title Since 2022 PGA Championship?

Thomas’ last PGA Tour win was the 2022 PGA Championship. He likes this Pete Dye-designed course, and the 31-year-old heads into the American Express as the favourite to come out on top.

Even though several familiar faces have pulled out, Thomas will face stiff competition in California. However, the price of 13.00 is tough to turn down, and we are backing Thomas to secure his first PGA title since prevailing in Oklahoma three years ago.  

As for an outside bet, why not take a punt on Dunlap to make it back-to-back American Express victories at odds of 35.00? The 21-year-old became the first amateur in 33 years to win a PGA tournament with his triumph at La Quinta last year. Can he cause another upset in 2025?
