- The U.S. Open is June 12-15 from Oakmont Country Club.
- The course is expected to play extremely difficult.
- Scottie Scheffler (+275) has the best odds to win.
It’s officially U.S. Open week and one of the best of the year for golf betting.
There are plenty of storylines on the course to follow, including Scottie Scheffler looking to continue his recent dominance, Rory McIlroy rebounding from a tough few events following his Masters victory, Bryson DeChambeau defending his title and more.
Scheffler has the best odds to win the U.S. Open at +275.
Picking an outright winner is extremely hard, but there are some trends to know for this week at Oakmont.
U.S. Open Betting Strategy
Since this is a major championship, naturally, one of the best players in the game is going to win.
Like most events, current form does come into play, so it’s important to look at how a player is performing at the moment.
Oakmont hasn’t hosted a major since 2016, so the vast majority of players in the field have not played the course before.
Even though there’s not much course history to go off of, it is a U.S. Open, so tough conditions with thick rough are expected. Do not expect many low scores this week, as it will be about limiting bogeys and taking advantage of the limited birdie opportunities.
