U.S. Open PGA Tips & Predictions
—
U.S. Open Best Bet – Brooks Koepka
It seems right to back the PGA Championship winner, and given Brooks Koepka has five majors from the last six years, he’s an excellent pick.
The American, in our opinion, is easily the best majors player in the field. Since he has been on the PGA and LIV Tour, Rory McIlroy hasn’t won a major, which is quite hard to believe.
He won the U.S. Open in 2017 and 2018, so he knows what it takes to win this tournament, and that’s why he should be favoured to with with the sportsbook.
When he plays well, he wins with arrogance, and he could have easily won the Masters as well. He tried to not make mistakes instead of attacking Augusta on the final day.
Punters get $13 for Koepka, which is the best value in U.S. Open betting markets.
Bet: Brooks Koepka @ $13
U.S. Open Best Value – Tyrrell Hatton
The feisty Brit is getting close to posting an overdue win, and it could come on the biggest stage.
He’s made for the U.S. Open, and he has had two solid finishes in this tournament throughout his career, so winning isn’t out of the realm of possibility.
He comes off a third placing at the RBC Canadian Open, where he played well on the final day, so his confidence levels should be high.
Hatton just needs to stick near the top of the leaderboard to have a chance on Monday morning, and we’re happy with the $29 odds available.
Bet: Tyrrell Hatton @ $29
U.S. Open Long Shot – Si Woo Kim
Si-Woo Kim has been playing excellent golf and punters get $67, which is a great price to include in U.S. Open picks.
The South Korean finished fourth at the Memorial behind Viktor Hovland, and that’s an excellent form guide for this tournament.
The 27-year-old also finished T2 behind Jason Day at the AT&T Byron Nelson, so he is knocking on the door of an overdue win.
It’s a risky bet, but that’s the risk you take when you accept massive odds.
Bet: Si-Woo Kim @ $67
U.S. Open Top 20 – Rickie Fowler
Rickie Fowler has been in great form in 2023, including multiple top 20 finishes in some of the biggest tournaments.
He might be struggling to find winning form, but the American is knocking on the door of a breakthrough win, and it could come at the U.S. Open.
His consistency is enough to bet on him with confidence, and punters get $2.70 for Fowler to finish in the top 20, which is a tidy value bet.
Bet: Rickie Fowler @ $2.70
U.S. Open Top Australian – Jason Day
Jason Day got back to winning form earlier this year, and his confidence levels should be high.
His win in the AT&T Byron Nelson was a credit to his tenacity, and we don’t think that’ll be the last win he has on the PGA Tour.
It’s a hot field of Australians, led by LIV’s Cameron Smith, but Smith hasn’t been playing well since making the move to the rebel league. Therefore, that leaves Day as our top pick.
$3.75 is available with bookmakers and that’s well worth taking.
Bet: Jason Day @ $3.75
