Detroit is known for many things. It includes the Lions, Pistons, Tigers, and Red Wings, its amazing automobiles, music and yes, golf. This will be the seventh year of the Rocket Mortgage Classic, and it has become an intriguing stop on the PGA Tour schedule. Its past champions include Americans Bryson DeChambeau, Tony Finau, and Rickie Fowler, and Australia’s own Cameron Davis, who has won the Rocket Mortgage Classic twice. Here are the three golfers we like this week.
Collin Morikawa
The world number five is the favourite this week at +1200. Even though Morikawa, the two-time major champion (2020 PGA Championship and 2021 British Open) has not won a PGA event since the 2023 Zozo Championship, favourites have done well in Detroit in the past. When DeChambeau won in 2020, he was the overwhelming 6-1 favourite, and came through in winning by three strokes.
Keegan Bradley
All of a sudden the Ryder Cup captain is a contender. The reason why he is at +1800 is because of his spectacular play last week at the Travelers Championship, where he shot a four round score of -15, and came up huge in the clutch as he came back to beat Tommy Fleetwood. Bradley is now all of a sudden seventh in the world, and needs to be praised for his great consistency. He has only missed one cut in 2025, and that was at the Masters.
Ben Griffin
Another golfer who has been extremely consistent lately has been Ben Griffin of Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The world number 17 is at +2200 this week. He has made eight of his last nine cuts, won the Charles Schwab Challenge, and finished second at the Memorial.
