2024 U.S. Open Odds & Picks: Max Homa

The U.S. Open is returning to Pinehurst No. 2 a classic Donald Ross design in the sandhills of North Carolina. Golf fans typically associate the U.S. Open with lightning-fast greens and thick, chewy rough that severely punishes errant shots. Pinehurst's greens will be slick, but instead of gnarly rough, sandy wastelands surround Pinehurst's fairways and greens, requiring players to be creative with recovery shots.

When the U.S. Open was last played at Pinehurst 10 years ago, Germany's Martin Kaymer crushed the field, finishing -9. Runners-up Rickie Fowler and Erik Compton finished -1. That only three players finished under par shows just how stern a test Pinehurst can be.

Will Scottie Scheffler build on a remarkable season by winning his second major of the year? Can Xander Schauffele win a second straight major after his victory at the PGA Championship a few weeks ago? Is the red-hot Rory McIlroy ready to win his first major in 10 years? Or will Pinehurst see a LIV Tour star such as Brooks Koepka or Bryson DeChambeau emerge triumphant?

Max Homa 2024 U.S. Open Betting Outlook

Traditionally, a U.S. Open course has deep rough and tight fairways. Pinehurst Course No. 2 has neither. This aligns well for Homa, who is currently above field average in both shots gained: putting and shots gained: approach to green. Homa has struggled driving the ball, ranking 125th in shots gained: off the tee. I like a top-20 bet for Max Homa (+165 at DraftKings) provides good value.
