Tony Finau 2023 US Open Betting Guide: Odds, Picks & Predictions

The U.S. Open comes to the Los Angeles Country Club this week for the first time ever, and to the city of Los Angeles for the first time since 1948, when Ben Hogan won at Riviera.

A fascinating and unfamiliar venue should make for an entertaining tournament. Los Angeles Country Club's north course features five par-3s, and two of them are monsters. The 11th hole measures 290 yards, though it will play shorter since it's downhill. The 7th plays at 284 yards. Then there's the tiny 15th, which is listed at 124 yards. It could play even shorter if the pin is in front, but it's a harrowing tee shot to a small, well-guarded green. Another hole that promises high entertainment value is the 6th, a reachable 330-yard par-4 with a blind tee shot over a tree.

LACC has wider fairways than a typical U.S. Open venue, but course management will be of the essence, as having the proper angle of attack on approach shots is critical. The course figures to play firm and fast, and its undulating greens will present a stern test.

Scottie Scheffler is the betting favorite, followed closely by reigning Masters champion Jon Rahm. Not far behind is Brooks Koepka, who won the PGA last month and leads the contingent of players from the LIV Tour.

And speaking of LIV, this will be the first major since the bombshell announcement of a planned merger between the LIV and PGA tours. The deal is a controversial one, and with a blended field of PGA Tour and LIV Tour players, merger talk will add to the intrigue of the event.

The 123rd U.S. Open should be a fun ride. Buckle up.

Tony Finau 2023 U.S. Open Betting Outlook

While Tony Finau boasts two wins this season, there is not a lot of reason to be optimistic about a strong performance this week. He is coming off a missed cut at the Charles Schwab Challenge and finished 72nd the week prior at the PGA Championship. In fact, Finau has not finished better than T15 in any of his past eight major championships, going 0-for-2 on made cuts at the U.S. Open over that span.

The only play I would even consider for Finau is top 20 at +120, but there is not enough of a return to justify making that wager in my opinion.
