2025 Truist Championship betting tips: Our expert’s top picks in Philadelphia

Tom Jacobs picks out his top Truist Championship betting tips ahead of the PGA Tour’s sixth Signature event of 2025.

Truist takes over sponsorship duties from Wells Fargo for the sixth Signature event of the 2025 PGA Tour season, with the tournament moving from its spiritual North Carolina home for just the third time since 2003, when it was called the Wachovia Championship.

With Quail Hollow set to host the PGA Championship next week, the Truist Championship moves to The Philadelphia Cricket Club in Pennsylvania for its debut running under its new guise.

Newly crowned Grand Slam winner Rory McIlroy is the tournament’s most prolific winner, having lifted the trophy on four occasions, albeit all at Quail Hollow. Regardless of whether four becomes five this week, McIlroy will be heavily fancied to contend for a second straight major of the season at one of his happiest hunting grounds.

This week’s Signature event does not feature a 36-hole cut, meaning the whole field will get four rounds to sharpen their games ahead of their quest for the Wanamaker Trophy.
