2026 Biltmore Championship Betting Guide: Best Bets & Sleepers

The FedExCup Fall opens September 17 to 20 at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, a Jack Nicklaus design in Arden, North Carolina, just south of Asheville. It's a brand-new tour venue, so nobody in the 132-player field brings course history, and every model is starting from scratch. We break down how this par 71 should play in the mountains, which stats matter most when there is no past-results data to lean on, and where the value sits on a flattened board.

Jackson Koivun opened as the betting favorite at +1325 on DraftKings, with Jacob Bridgeman at +1850 and Ben James at +2450. Justin Thomas withdrew over the weekend, which reshuffled the top of the market. We also get into the Presidents Cup tune-up angle for Koivun, Bridgeman, and five International team players, plus the card pressure on Billy Horschel, Tony Finau, and Lucas Glover as they sit right around the top-100 FedExCup line. Then we dig past the favorites for the mid-board ball strikers and longshots worth a look before Thursday.
