Golf futures
Here are the odds for the US Open, which gets underway on June 15.
At last year’s US Open, Matthew Fitzpatrick outpaced the field by carding a -6. Scheffler and Zalatoris tied for second place, a stroke behind. The last of the four majors is the British Open (aka The Open Championship), which starts on July 20.
Cameron Smith was the winner last time around at -20, with Cameron Young in second at -19. McIlroy finished third at -18. While the British Open is the last of the four yearly golf majors, there are still several other tournaments before the PGA Tour season comes to a close.
Golf betting odds explained
There are a number of options for betting on golf. You can wager on who will win a tournament, bet on the finishing positions of the participants, try to identify the best-performing golfer from a pair or group and much more. Here’s a look at how various golf bets work:
Tournament winner
For golf betting, the featured attraction often is the winner of a tournament. There will be odds for all of the golfers who are scheduled to compete. Since choosing the outright winner from a field that’s typically filled with 100+ participants is challenging, the odds can be fairly long, even for the favorites.
To win the Canadian Open:
- Rory McIlroy:
- Tyrell Hatton:
- Matthew Fitzpatrick:
Finishing positions
Beyond wagering on the winner, you can also bet on where a golfer will place at the event. There are several options for each tournament, including the top five, top 10 and top 20. For a general rule, the higher the finish, the higher the odds will be. As an example, consider the below odds from a previous tournament.
Tiger Woods finishing position
- Top five: +750
- Top 10: +500
- Top 20: +250
Matchups
You can also wager on who will do the best in a tournament out of pairings or groups of golfers. The odds for head-to-heads look like a standard moneyline bet: negative for favorites and positive for underdogs.
Brooks Koepka vs. Bryson Dechambeau head-to-head
- Koepka: -196
- Dechambeau: +152
For a three-way bet, you’ll also have the option to wager on a tie.
Match winner three-way
- Max Homa: -155
- Tie: +350
- Kevin Kisner: +175
If you are betting on a three-ball group, the favorite will sometimes have negative odds but could also have the lowest of three positive numbers.
Three-ball betting
- Justin Thomas +200
- Jon Rahm +125
- Cameron Young +220
