Who Will Win the 2025 Rocket Classic?

What is the 2025 Rocket Classic Course and Layout?

Though a historic golf course, Detroit Golf Club has only hosted this event since 2019. This Donald Ross-designed par-72 stretches to 7,370 yards but is known more for its scoring opportunities than its length, thanks to wide fairways, receptive greens, and minimal rough. Winning scores have routinely pushed past 20-under, and with ideal summer conditions expected, another birdie-fest is likely on tap.

Now in its seventh edition, the Rocket Classic has quickly built a reputation for favoring sharp iron play and hot putting. Four of the six past champions have reached 23-under or better, with ball-strikers thriving. Two-time and defending champion Cam Davis returns, while the full 156-player field will be fighting not only for the $9.6 million purse but also for crucial FedExCup points as the six-week rush to the Playoffs begins.

Expect fireworks this week as players target the favorable par 5s and look to make their mark in one of the TOUR’s most attackable venues. With approach play serving as a key indicators of success, the Rocket Classic should deliver plenty of drama—and birdies—as contenders jockey for position in Detroit.

The Rocket Classic Betting Preview

We're looking at the golfers that our model has identified with a higher probability to win than that implied by the sportsbook odds. Many big names are out of the field but with 156 golfers in play, there's plenty of value to be found.

We'll also highlight some standout prop and placement bets if we find any appealing value when perusing the board.

Keegan Bradley (+1800 on DraftKings)

First up is last week's winner, coming off a dramatic come-from-behind victory at the Travelers Championship, where he birdied the 18th to claim his eighth PGA Tour title

Ranked a career-high No. 7 in the world, Bradley now holds third-shortest odds (+1600) to win the Rocket Classic and is in peak form with three top-10s in his last four starts.

Bradley boasts elite ball-striking metrics: he ranks top 10 in strokes gained total (+1.192) and top 3 in tee-to-green.

His approach game (22nd) and short-game around-the-green (12th) are strong suits, which suits the Detroit Golf Club setup that rewards iron play and wedge control.

The only weak area is his putting, but given the soft greens and birdie-friendly conditions, this is less concerning.

He hold value throughout the board with our fair odds for him to win at +1000 based on our 9.1% probability, yet he is available as long as +1800 at DraftKings. 

Ben Griffin (+2200 on DraftKings)

Next up is a golfer who's having himself a career year, more like a breakout, as well.

Ben Griffin enters the Rocket Classic on a torrid run, ranking 6th in FedExCup points this season and capturing two PGA Tour wins, a solo victory at the Charles Schwab Challenge and a team win at the Zurich Classic, and that's to go along with six other top-10s

He's recently finished T8, 1st, 2nd, T10, and T14, including a stellar T8 at the PGA Championship and a T10 at the U.S. Open—showing he can hang with the elite.

Griffin’s game is well-rounded - he sits 16th in strokes gained total (+1.007), with solid marks across key areas—notably tee-to-green (26th) and putting (35th).

Detroit Golf Club demands precise iron play and rewards those who can shave off strokes with the putter—a perfect match for Griffin’s strengths. While none of his stats jump off the page as a runaway winner, his consistent all-around performance makes him a dangerous contender on this gettable setup.

We were on Griffin last week and he was one better round away from cashing Top 10 and Top 20, and he once again offers a ladder play this week.

At 6.6% to win, fair odds for Griffin would be +1400.

Harry Hall (+4000 on DraftKings)

It's never a Dimers golf preview without an Englishman in the mix.

Harry Hall arrives in Detroit on a five-event run with consistent results, including a T9 at the Travelers and T6 at Charles Schwab.

Known for his clutch short game, he enters this tournament second on TOUR in Strokes Gained: Putting and 17th Around the Green.

In a week defined by low scoring and birdie chances, Hall’s putting proficiency and consistency make him a strong contender at +4000 odds to win, with the fair price identified by the Dimers model closer to +3600 based on our 2.7% probability.

He doesn't have much spark off the tee, and approach, but enough to put him in position as he can clean up on the short game. You don’t need to be a bomber at Detroit Golf Club, just convert when it counts.

Hall holds less value in his ladder placements than the others in this article, but he does for a Top 20 finish at 37.4% and +210.

Alex Noren (+6000 on DraftKings)

With high upside and long odds, Alex Noren returns to Detroit with momentum, bagging two Top 10s at Detroit Golf Club in 2021 and 2023.

He's earned a payday in four of his five starts since coming back after offseason recovery, including a strong T17 at the PGA Championship, 

At +6000 to win, Noren is a bit of a sleeper at 2.6% compared to other players in his probability range, with experience and course history in his favor.

Though unqualified for SG stats this season, his 2024 stats show a well-rounded game:

• SG: Total +1.011 (12th)

• Tee‑to‑Green +0.798 (19th)

• Approach +0.286 (43rd)

• Around‑the‑Green +0.394 (8th)

• Putting +0.213 (54th)

Fair odds for Noren to win would be +3750, with his Top 20 a strong side bet at +36.8% (fair at +170).

In addition to the outright winner picks with value, we've got placement bet value to consider for this week's 2025 Rocket Classic as well.

Zach Johnson Top 20 (+1100 on BetRivers) 

We're looking way down the board for this one as a big value play.

Zach Johnson draws an 18.2% probability to finish Top 20 at the Rocket Classic, which makes fair odds of +450.

However, Johnson is a whopping +1100 on BetRivers - he's as short as +750 at DraftKings.

Johnson is a PGA TOUR vet with 12 career wins, and though he's not had a strong showing here, he's flashed the upside this year with finishes of T21, T18 and T8, which his best result getting better as the season has progressed.
