The PGA Tour moves from North Carolina to Fort Worth, Texas this week for the 2025 Charles Schwab Challenge. 

Last week, Scottie Scheffler capped off a dominant performance at Quail Hollow with a win at the PGA Championship, securing his third career major title and reinforcing his status as the top player in the world. 

With Scheffler back in a league of his own, he returns to his home state as the overwhelming favorite to win the Charles Schwab Challenge at just +230 odds. No other player in the field owns better than 20-1 odds to win the tournament, a sign of Scheffler’s dominance over the past two years.

The next closest contenders include Daniel Berger (+2200), along with Tommy Fleetwood (+2500) and hometown favorite Jordan Spieth (+2500). From there, the field is wide-open with capable longshots and sleepers, all looking to challenge the World No. 1 at Colonial Country Club, where precision, patience, and a hot putter can turn the tide on Sunday.

Read on to find the latest 2025 Charles Schwab Challenge odds, along with expert picks and the best bets for all of the action in Fort Worth this weekend. 

Charles Schwab Challenge 2025 Odds

The Charles Schwab Challenge features a strong field, especially when considering it’s scheduled one week after a major.

Scottie Scheffler opens as the overwhelming favorite at +230. Scheffler moved to Dallas as a child and attended the University of Texas but has never won the Charles Schwab Championship. 

Behind him, the rest of the field opens at much longer prices. Berger checks in at +2200, followed by Fleetwood and Spieth, both at +2500. From there, four players sit with +3300 odds, including Aaron Rai, Maverick McNealy, Harris English, and Hideki Matsuyama.

Here are the Charles Schwab Challenge 2025 odds for the top 50 players on the board.

Charles Schwab Challenge 2025 Predictions

Here are our Charles Schwab Challenge 2025 predictions and the best bets to win the tournament. 

  • Aaron Rai (+3000)
  • Harris English (+3300)
  • Brian Harman (+6000)

Aaron Rai (+3000)

Aaron Rai is a strong value pick at +3000 for the Charles Schwab Challenge. Colonial favors accuracy over distance, which plays right into Rai’s strengths. He leads the PGA Tour in driving accuracy and ranked third in strokes gained approach last week. Fresh off a T19 at the PGA Championship on a course that didn’t suit his game, he now heads to a place that fits him perfectly. With a T12 finish here two years ago, Rai’s form, fit, and value make him a sharp play this weekend.

Harris English (+3300)

Harris English is trending up at the right time and offers strong value at +3300 for the Charles Schwab Challenge. He enters Colonial in peak form, following a T11 at the Truist Championship and a runner-up finish at Quail Hollow. English led the entire PGA Championship field in strokes gained approach (+1.99) and currently ranks third in tee-to-green performance among this week’s field. Colonial rewards precision, and English has proven he can thrive here with multiple top-5s and a T12 last year. With his iron play dialed in and a deep course résumé, he’s a live contender this week.

Brian Harman (+6000)

At +6000, Brian Harman is a sneaky-good value play for the Charles Schwab Challenge. He knows Colonial inside and out, with 12 starts and three top-10s to prove it. Since his win at Valero, Harman has quietly maintained strong form, gaining true strokes on the field in every start. His putter has been especially sharp, gaining strokes in five straight events, a crucial edge on Colonial’s tricky greens. Most notably, he’s gained true strokes putting in each of his past five starts, ranking 11th in this week’s field.
