Following the Open Championship and Genesis Scottish Open, the PGA Tour is back in the United States with the 3M Open from TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, Minnesota.
Although many players are taking the week off, several strong players are in the field.
When it comes to golf betting at the BetMGM online sportsbook, Akshay Bhatia and Tony Finau are the two most popular players.
As of Wednesday, Bhatia (+2000) is pulling in the most money (11.46%) on the most tickets (11%). Although he missed the cut in the Open Championship, he finished T-2 (Rocket Mortage Classic) and T-5 (Travelers Championship) in his two starts before that.
Bhatia is having a very solid season, including a win, three top 10 finishes and 11 top 25s.
Finau, who has the shortest odds of any player at +1100, is drawing the second-most money (10.1%) on the second-most tickets (10.1%).
It’s no surprise, as Finau won the event in 2022 and has two other top 10 finishes. Like Bhatia, he missed the cut at the Open Championship but had three top 10 finishes in his three starts prior to that.
Fresh off his T-2 finish at the Open Championship, Billy Horschel (+3500) is another popular pick this week.
Horschel is taking in the third-most money (9.1%) on the third-most tickets (8.2%).
Bhatia, Horschel and Finau are BetMGM’s biggest liabilities this week.
