After the season-opening event last week in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, won by +10000 longshot Adrian Meronk, the circuit moves to Australia for LIV Golf Adelaide. This tournament, formerly played in April, is known as the tour's most rowdy event, where fans will pack "The Watering Hole," otherwise known as the 12th hole at Grange Golf Club. As a whole, Grange plays as a par 72 at less than 7,000 yards with birdies galore over the three days of play. Talor Gooch won the inaugural event in 2023 at 19-under par with Brendan Steele becoming a long shot winner at -18 under par last year. Play begins Thursday evening. 

Jon Rahm, who has never finished outside the top 10 in a LIV Golf event that he has completed, is the favorite at +550 odds, followed by Tyrrell Hatton (+750), Bryson DeChambeau (+850), Joaquin Niemann (+900), and Australian Cameron Smith at +1400. DeChambeau is -145 (risk $145 to win $100) to finish inside the top 10 this week. 

Before making any LIV Golf Adelaide golf picks, be sure to see what golf handicapper Eric Cohen has to say.

Cohen is an avid golf bettor who correctly predicted the pre-tournament outright winners of the first two LIV Golf events in 2024, Joaquin Niemann at Mayakoba and Dustin Johnson in Las Vegas, as well as Sergio Garcia at Andalucia last July. He also accurately predicted Bryson DeChambeau's victory at the 2024 U.S. Open at +2000 odds. Eric is a contributor to SportsLine's YouTube shows including "Early Edge" and is the host of "The Early Wedge" golf show (Tuesday nights at 7 p.m. ET starting later this month). Anyone who has followed Cohen's predictions is likely to have made positive gains on their golf picks.

Now, Cohen has studied the 2025 LIV Golf Adelaide field and locked in three best bets. Unfortunately, one of them isn't home countryman Cameron Smith, who Cohen is fading at +1400 odds. "By putting Smith as my top fade this week, that doesn't mean I think he will necessarily perform poorly. I just don't think he'll be a contender for a win in his home country. He did T3 here in 2023 followed by a T14 last year, so another top-10 finish is squarely in play. But a T39 at the Australian Open in December and T25 last week, losing shots on approach, are reasons for me to be tepid as to his outright chances in Adelaide."

Cohen also has broken down the 2025 LIV Golf Adelaide event and reveals why he's backing two underdogs to finish in the top 10! You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any picks of your own.
