There are just five PGA Tour events left this year, starting with the 2025 Baycurrent Classic. It tees off at 5:45 p.m. ET on Wednesday from Yokohama Country Club in Japan, marking the first time this course will host this event. Many of the tour's best players are being joined by those from the Japan Golf Tour, with this tournament being an unofficial event on the latter. Unlike many other FedEx Cup Fall events, the Baycurrent Classic 2025 field is stacked with big names like Xander Schauffele, Collin Morikawa, Wyndham Clark and Hideki Matsuyama.

It is Schauffele who tops the 2025 Baycurrent Classic odds board at +1000. Both Morikawa (+1600) and Matsuyama (+1800) are past winners of this tournament, while Clark is a +3500 golf longshot, as is Max Homa. Nico Echavarria, who won this event last year, is a massive PGA longshot and comes in at +8000 to utilize in Baycurrent Classic bets.

2025 Baycurrent Classic predictions 

One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2025 Baycurrent Classic: Kurt Kitayama (+2000), who is one of the favorites, stumbles this week and barely cracks the top 10. While Kitayama has strong iron play and excels in both the long game and short game, it's often his first and last shots which are a bit off. He ranks 123rd in driving accuracy percentage and 141st in strokes gained: putting. What he does in between those strokes can only do so much when there are struggles with both the driver and putter.

Arguably the closest course comp to Yokohama Country Club is Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina. Both courses were remodeled by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw and have similar bunkering, and Kitayama struggled in his lone start at Pinehurst. That course hosted the 2024 U.S. Open, and Kitayama missed the cut and shot 7-over-par over his two rounds. His lack of precision off the tee will be magnified at a course like this which is a big reason why the model sees better options with PGA bets. See who else to fade here, and then use FanDuel to get $300 in bonus bets instantly. 

Another one of the model's surprising Baycurrent Classic picks: Min Woo Lee (+3000) makes a strong run at the title. He had a top-25 at that U.S. Open at Pinehurst and has posted strong recent results on the DP World Tour. Lee had a fifth-place finish, which followed an 11th-place finish, in a pair of September events in Europe, and he notched his first PGA Tour victory earlier this year at the Texas Children's Houston Open. Lee is a target for anyone looking for a huge payday at the Baycurrent Classic.

At 7,315 yards, Yokohama Country Club is middle-of-the-pack when it comes to length of 2025 PGA Tour courses. So, someone like Lee, who ranks 15th on tour in driving distance should be able to take advantage of his length off the tee and put himself into advantageous second shots. Few players are better with their short game as the Australian is 13th in strokes gained: around-the-green. Add in that he ranks among the top quartile of golfers in both overall putting average and putts per round, and he's someone who can make a run up the leaderboard in Japan. See who else to pick here.
