Scottie Scheffler is favored in the US Open Odds

U.S. Open Odds: Scheffler Chalked To Win

The 2023 U.S. Open is here!

The 123rd playing of the national championship will take place on the famous Los Angeles Country Club as the City of Angels hosts a major championship for the first time in 75 years.

All the usual suspects will be making the trip out west, and they are led by betting favorite, and world No. 1, Scottie Scheffler at +700.

The Texan arrives in Los Angeles off a near miss at the Memorial Tournament and the Charles Schwab Challenge. Scheffler finished T2 at the 2023 PGA Championship and now has three top-two finishes in the last six major championships when dating back to the start of 2022.

Jon Rahm, the only man from Europe to win the U.S. Open and the Masters, may be the forgotten man at +1100 as he narrowly checks in ahead of five-time major champion Brooks Koepka at +1200.

Fans have not seen Koepka since his play at LIV Golf DC, but he has dominated this tournament throughout his career winning it in back-to-back years in 2017 and 2018.

Rory McIlroy hopes to break a nine-year major championship drought from +1400 with Viktor Hovland +1600, Patrick Cantlay +1800, and Xander Schauffele +2000 all trending towards their first career major titles.

2023 U.S. Open Betting Picks

Below are our picks to win this year's U.S. Open along with our first round leader odds.

Scottie Scheffler: +700 to win

What the world No. 1 is doing from tee-to-green this season is historic. He is beginning to mirror 2000 Tiger Woods numbers, and should the putter cooperate, his second major title will be his.

Scheffler has been seen out at LACC testing new flat sticks and just a neutral performance on the greens should be enough to enter the winner’s circle. He ranked second in strokes gained tee-to-green at Augusta National and first in strokes gained tee-to-green at Oak Hill but outside the top 30 in strokes gained putting in both instances.

His last two U.S. Open finishes read: T2 and T7 and he rides a 15-tournament top-12 streak into Los Angeles.

Xander Schauffele: +2000 to win

It is not a matter of it, but when for Schauffele and raising a major championship trophy. He has been persistent in the four big tournaments, and the U.S. Open may be his best chance. In five career starts, Schauffele has not finished outside the top 20 and boasts three top-six finishes.

The California native rides five straight top-20 finishes in major championships into Los Angeles and looks to have zero weaknesses in his game. The wider fairways of LACC should help Schauffele as he has a knack for being wayward off the tee every now and again.

Tony Finau: +4000 to win

Finau has hit a bit of a dry spell since his victory at the Mexico Open, but this tournament should be a great bounce back spot. Over the last six months, the six-time PGA Tour winner ranks inside the top 50 in terms of driving distance and driving accuracy and inside the top 10 in total strokes gained.

His iron play has the potential to match that of Scheffler and Morikawa and his around-the-green game has improved. In seven appearances in the U.S. Open, Finau has been very much hit-or-miss with four missed cuts and three top-15 finishes. At this price, I am willing to suggest he’ll be inside the top 15 and give his first major championship a real scare.

Jason Day: +6000 to win

When the former world No. 1 was at the height of his powers, the U.S. Open was his for the picking. From 2011-2016, Day collected five top-10 finishes in this championship including runner-up finishes at Congressional and Merion.

He is beginning to mirror such form and his victory at the Byron Nelson in May could be a launching pad for additional major success. He has hit a bump in the road with back-to-back missed cuts, but Day’s long-term metrics remain sound.

Over the last six months, the Australian ranks sixth in total strokes gained and inside the top 25 in strokes gained tee-to-green, strokes gained off the tee, strokes gained around the green and strokes gained putting. LACC will require a well-rounded skillset to win, and Day certainly possess that.

Odds as of June 13

Scottie Scheffler: +1800 First Round Leader

When Scheffler contends in major championships he is good for a fast start as well. He fired a round of 3-under at the PGA Championship to sit two off the early pace and a round of 68 at Augusta National to fall three short of Rahm, Koepka and Hovland in the year’s first major championship.

Both of those efforts came without the assistance of his putter. Over the last three months, he is gaining more than three strokes on the field per round and holds a half-stroke margin over the player in second.

Xander Schauffele: +3000 First Round Leader

Schauffele ranks second in total strokes gained over the last three months as he gains roughly +2.50 strokes on the field per round trailing only Scheffler.

The last time the U.S. Open was held in California Schauffele opened with a 2-under 69 to fall two off the 18-hole lead set by Russell Henley and Louis Oosthuizen at Torrey Pines. Despite failing to capture a victory in 2023, this has been Schauffele’s best statistical season to date, and an early round lead should be in the cards.
