Our picks for the 2023 AT&T Byron Nelson
Having evaluated the current form of all players, and the odds on offer, our top pick for the 2023 AT&T Byron Nelson is Scottie Scheffler.

However, if you’re looking for someone who has an outside chance at victory, then we feel that Si Woo Kim at 30/1 is a good outside chance of doing well in this tournament.
