The WM Phoenix Open hosted at TPC Scottsdale is a fan favorite on the PGA Tour, and this week’s event is sure to lead perfectly into Super Bowl 60.
World No. 1 and two-time champion Scottie Scheffler is the betting favorite in the WM Phoenix Open odds, but I’m looking further down the board with my top longshot and sleeper golf picks.
WM Phoenix Open sleeper picks
- McNealy to win outright (+3500)
- Koepka to win outright (+4000)
- Spieth to win outright (+5000)

WM Phoenix Open sleeper predictions
Sleeper pick to win: Maverick McNealy
+3500 at Fanatics
Maverick McNealy finished solo 10th at the Farmers last week, and it was his second consecutive event gaining true strokes across the board to affirm his game is firing on all cylinders.
He’s also carded consecutive Top 10s in the WM Phoenix Open, including shooting a Saturday-low 63 last year and finishing third in true strokes gained putting for the event.
Sleeper pick to win: Brooks Koepka
+4000 at Fanatics
A two-time winner at TPC Scottsdale, Brooks Koepka was 11th in true strokes gained tee-to-green at Torrey Pines last week but gifted away strokes on the Poa greens while finishing last in true strokes gained putting.
Considering Koepka has gained in the metric in each of his five trips to this event, with the oversized green complexes relatively flat and lacking undulation at TPC Scottsdale, I’m expecting his solid tee-to-green game to pave the way to a late tee time Sunday afternoon.
Sleeper pick to win:
+5000 at Fanatics
Jordan Spieth gained true strokes across the board during his solid T24 start to the season at the Sony Open, and his track record at TPC Scottsdale pops.
In addition to his T4-T6-T6 run across his past three trips to the Waste Management, he’s added three more Top 10s across his nine total appearances in this event. Simply put, Spieth shouldn’t be trading this high.
