The 2023 PGA Tour slate isn’t quite over yet. The Fall Series kicks off this week with the 2023 Fortinet Championship, and we’re picking a winless journeyman pro as our long shot. Here’s our pick, the Fortinet Championship odds, betting favorites and everything else you need to know for the week.

Fortinet Championship odds: Long-shot bet

For the first event of this year’s Fall Series, we’re going with a pro who could put an exclamation mark on a solid season this week: Mark Hubbard.

Hubbard, who comes into the week with +5000 odds-to-win, is a 34-year-old pro originally from Colorado. Hubbard has never won a PGA Tour event, but he’s had a very respectable season so far. In 32 starts, Hubbard made 18 cuts and amassed an impressive five top-10 finishes.

His best finish of the season came at the Sanderson Farms Championship last October, where he finished T5. That tournament was next on the schedule after last year’s Fortinet Championship, where Hubbard ended up with a solid T21.

If you bet $10 on Hubbard to win and he pulls it off, you’ll take home $500. For additional bets, consider putting small wagers on Hubbard to finish top 10 and top 20.

Fortinet Championship odds: The favorites

With the FedEx Cup Playoffs complete, most star players are sitting this week out, with some players using the time to prepare for the upcoming Ryder Cup. Justin Thomas, however, decided to get his Ryder Cup prep in on the course at the Fortinet where he’s hoping to build momentum after a rough year. His odds-to-win sit at +1400.
