2024 U.S. Open Top Pick

Although the PGA Championship was Xander Schauffele’s first win of the season, the top choice to take the Memorial has played great golf throughout. Xander scored a second at The Players Championship and an eighth at the Masters.

When golfers like Schauffele start to roll, they keep it going. The second at the Wells Fargo, the tournament before the PGA Championship, is a sign Schauffele is about to challenge Scheffler for the world’s top ranking. Also, the odds are much better than the chalk’s.

2024 U.S. Open Second Pick

Scottie Scheffler followed up an eighth place finish at the PGA Championship with a second place finish at the Charles Schwab. The second place finish tells us that the world’s top ranked golfer hasn’t missed a beat, even though his chances of winning the PGA Championship were compromised due to a morning incident before the second round.

For sure, Scheffler can win this. But the odds are light and Scottie is due for a string of non-victories after winning four of five, including The Players and the Masters, earlier in the season.

2024 U.S. Open Third Pick

The defending champion is a contender. After a missed cut at the Masters, Viktor Hovland bounced back in the PGA Championship with a surprising third place finish.

The 68-66-66-66 that Hovland shot at Valhalla Golf Club was fantastic. Nobody can argue with the odds. So if you like Viktor to make it two straight Memorial Tournament wins, then back him.

2024 U.S. Open Underdog Pick

Since early April, Hideki Matsuyama has played in two tournaments, the Masters and the PGA Championship. Hideki finished thirty-eighth at Augusta National.

He finished thirty-fifth at the PGA Championship. Matsuyama for sure is a contender in this. Hideki has been sitting on the bench and perfecting his swing. If he unleashes the sweet swing this week, Matsuyama could score a victory at the better than decent odds.
