Truist Championship golf predictions, odds and PGA Tour picks for Today, 05/08/25

One player who has been playing well this season is Irishman Shane Lowry, who was 2nd at Pebble Beach and has added top-10 finishes at the Arnold Palmer and the Valspar Championship. The 38-year-old was tied-18th at the RBC Heritage last time out and he enters this tournament at a career-high 12th in the world, which is evidence of his consistent play. Another strong performance this week would throw him firmly into the PGA Championship mix. Armed with a brilliant short game, Lowry is 4th in strokes gained tee to green and 11th in approach, and those solid numbers should see him get into contention for the Truist Championship this week.

Collin Morikawa is another worth considering this week as he is another player who looks to be on the cusp of scooping a big prize, with his last victory coming at the 2023 ZOZO Championship. The 28-year-old has finished runner-up twice this season, at The Sentry and the Arnold Palmer, while he registered a top-10 at the Players Championship, was T14 at the Masters and shared 17th place at Pebble Beach and the Genesis Invitational. Ranked 2nd for driving accuracy and 3rd for strokes gained in approach and tee to green, the 2-time Major champion looks to be hitting peak form at the perfect time and can gain a confidence-boosting victory ahead of the PGA at Quail Hollow.
