LIV Golf Riyadh field and favorites

After essentially an entire season of Jon Rahm being the No. 1 betting choice, Tyrrell Hatton is the one getting the nod to kick off the 2025 season in Riyadh.

Hatton's been on a heater since the end of the 2024 LIV season, winning twice (Alfred Dunhil Links, Dubai Desert Classic) and logging four more Top-10 finishes in six worldwide starts. That form has him atop this week's board as short as +600 and as long as +725.

Rahm did win two of three events to close the 2024 LIV season and logged three straight Top 7s on the DP World Tour since then, but he is coming off an ugly missed cut at the Dubai Desert Classic two weeks ago and his odds have taken a hit, listed between +650 and +725 after winning in Chicago as a +500 solo favorite.

Bryson DeChambeau rounds out the Top 3 after a runner-up finish at the International Series India event last week. He finished T6 in the Chicago event and last won at the U.S. Open in June.
