Turns out we don’t have to travel too far for this week’s Travelers Championship with a strong field of players assembled just a few days after the season’s third major. One player not making the short trip is U.S. Open winner Matt Fitzpatrick, though two of the top-5 at the Country Club are in attendance. Scottie Scheffler has been so good it almost feels like he... 

Just a few days after a thrilling conclusion at the third major of the season, a strong field is ready to peg it up this week at the Travelers Championship. The top of the odds board has a definite major championship feel to it with two of the top-5 finishers at the U.S. Open listed as the betting favorites on the opening line. Rory McIlroy, who was T5 last week and on a run of strong form, emerged at the top of the list with last week’s co-runner-up Scottie Scheffler close behind. Justin Thomas and Patrick Cantlay round out the top four favorites with all having odds of 12/1 or shorter. In all six of the world’s top-10 are scheduled to tee it up at TPC River Highlands, including defending champ Harris English, who won in an epic eight-hole playoff.

Sportsbooks go all out when golf’s major championships are on the schedule. That means this week’s U.S. Open will have plenty of wagering opportunities when the field pegs it up at historic Country Club of Brookline. With an expanded menu of prop bets, avid and novice golf fans have something to keep their interest over four days. Unfortunately there is no Tiger Woods in... 

Golf’s elite gather at historic Brookline Country Club just outside Boston this week for the 122nd U.S. Open. The hope is that the tournament can deflect what’s going on in the game with the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Series creating a heated debate among players. Though players who competed in the LIV were banned by the PGA Tour, those who qualified are allowed to play by a ... 

With other events dominating the world of golf let’s not forget we have one of the biggest tournaments of the year taking place this week. The PGA Tour and those players banned for participating in the LIV Golf Series who are eligible will assemble at the historic Country Club of Brookline for the 122nd U.S. Open. Fresh off his win in the RBC Canadian Open, Rory McIlroy ... 

After a two-year absence the RBC Canadian Open makes its long awaited return to the PGA Tour schedule. The last stop ahead of the season’s third major features a strong field headlined by the longest defending champion. Rory McIlroy won this event when it was last held in 2019, though that came at a different venue. This time the full-field of 156 golfers will navigate St. George’s Golf and Country Club, considered one of the finest in Canada. The venue last hosted in 2010 and was scheduled for the 2020 and 2021 editions, however COVID wrecked those plans. There is a strong contingent of Canadian players led by Corey Conners, who is ranked the highest in the FedExCup standings among the 21 players looking to get a win on home soil for the first time since 1954. Four-time winner this season Scottie Scheffler has emerged as the outright betting favorite and is featured in several matchups.

Welcome back, ehh. For the first time in three years the PGA Tour will tee it up north of the border at this week’s RBC Canadian Open. The global pandemic wreaked havoc on the sports world but no event was impacted more than this tournament, twice cancelled due to the virus. Headlined by defending champ and betting favorite Rory McIlroy, the field will navigate one of the f... 

A strong field is assembled at the house that Jack built for this week’s Memorial Tournament. A PGA Tour stop since 1976, Jack Nicklaus was the inspiration behind the design of Muirfield Village Golf Club, though the course underwent a massive remodel following Jon Rahm’s victory in 2020. Rahm was on his way to a repeat last year with a six-shot lead after 54 holes but ... 

With no Scottie Scheffler in the lineup Jon Rahm has moved to the top of the odds board for this week’s Memorial Tournament. And if fate has anything to do with it Rahm is owed one after last year’s edition. Rahm had a six-shot lead after 54 holes but had to withdraw following a positive COVID test. Thrust to the top of the leaderboard to start the final round, Patrick ... 

The celebrity golf series known as ‘The Match’ has been hugely popular with fans and bettors since the first edition was played in 2018 featuring PGA Tour royalty Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods. The next three installments pitted two-man teams squaring off and once again that’s the case, only there are no professional golfers involved this time. Instead we have a battle of National Football League excellence with first ballot Hall of Famers Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers taking on young guns Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes in a 12-hole made for TV event on Wednesday, June 1. If experience means anything the duo of Brady and Rodgers certainly has the advantage on the football field and on the golf course. They have each competed in The Match previously and are the betting favorites. Meanwhile Allen and Mahomes, who staged an epic battle in last season’s NFL playoffs, will be making their debuts in The Match series. The teams will play at the Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas at 6:30 p.m. ET with television coverage provided by TNT. ... 

The Charles Schwab Challenge will always be a special event on the PGA Tour. It was the first tournament played after the Tour shut down for a period of time due to COVID and despite following the second major of the season it always draws a strong field. This year is no different with a number of highly-ranked golfers set to tee it up at Colonial Country Club... 

It will be hard to outdo the excitement of last week’s PGA Championship when Justin Thomas rallied for a playoff victory over Will Zalatoris. The two are included in the field for this week’s Charles Schwab Challenge as the PGA Tour concludes its run through the Lone Star state. Five of the world’s top-10 players are scheduled to peg it up at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth with No. 1 Scottie Scheffler topping the PGA odds board. Despite missing the cut last week for the first time since October, Scheffler opened with shorter odds than both Thomas and Zalatoris with fan favorite Jordan Spieth also near the top of the odds list. Jason Kokrak looks to defend the title he won by two shots last year sending Spieth to his third career runner-up finish in this event. Head over to BookMaker.eu for a complete list of betting odds when you’re ready to place a wager. ... 

For golf bettors major championships are the equivalent of the Super Bowl with a prop bet menu full of wagers. This year’s PGA Championship will have over 150 of the best golfers in the world competing for the coveted Wannamaker Trophy and there is no shortage of betting opportunities. Rarely in a major does a player lead wire-to-wire so investing in the first-round leader will be different from the outright winner, or at least it should be. And we shouldn’t expect low scores on a course that’s ... 

The major championships bring out the best players in the world and numerous betting options. There’s no shortage of either for this week’s PGA Championship. A full-field of over 150 golfers will assemble at Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa, Okla. with Scottie Scheffler and Jon Rahm neck and neck for the top spot on the PGA betting board. However, with the biggest names in the... 

Major week is upon us with the PGA Tour headed to Tulsa, Oklahoma and Southern Hills Country Club for the 104th edition of the PGA Championship. Though we have a stacked field with the world’s best players assembled, the big news is who won’t be attending. Defending champ Phil Mickelson is not included in the field. To make up for Lefty’s absence we are expected to have a Tiger Wo... 

With the second major of the year a week out we’ll see plenty of big names on the PGA Tour pegging it up this week at the AT&T Byron Nelson to get their final prep work in. And why not, TPC Craig Ranch was a haven for low scores in its Tour debut last season with champ K.H. Lee carding a record 25-under. The cut line last year was 6-under wit... 

Serving as the final tune up before the second major of the season, the PGA Tour assembles just outside Dallas for this week’s AT&T Byron Nelson with a strong field ready to navigate TPC Craig Ranch. Following a two-week break Scottie Scheffler looks to continue his scorching run and is positioned as the betting favorite and the only player w... 

For just the second time in its existence the Wells Fargo Championship will be played on a different course. The full-field of players assembles this week at TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm as the tournament takes a one year break from Quail Hollow, which is prepping for the Presidents Cup in a few months. Rory McIlroy has enjoyed plenty of success at this tournament returning... 

It’s a familiar tournament at an unfamiliar location this week with the Wells Fargo Championship being contested at TPC Potomac at Avenal Farm. Host of the event all but once since it joined the rotation in 2003, Quail Hollow Golf Club is being prepped for the Presidents Cup later in the year forcing the PGA to move closer to Washington D.C. It’s not a completely new course, though, since TPC Potomac last hosted an event in 2018 with Francesco Molinari topping the Quicken Loans National field. Molinari is well down the PGA odds board with the entire field behind betting favorite, defending champ and three-time winner Rory McIlroy. There’s never been a successful title defense at the WFC, but McIlroy is coming off a final-round record-tying 64 at the Masters and he’s finished among the top-10 in eight of his 10 WFC starts. Be sure to visit BookMaker.eu for an updated list of betting odds when you’re ready to place a wager. ... 

An official event on the PGA Tour for the first time, the Mexico Open at Vidanta has actually been around since the 1940’s playing as the country’s national open. There are several big-name players among the full-field ready to peg it up at Vidanta Vallarta, which is set to host this tournament for the next three years. The biggest name of the group is also the highest ranked player and the... 

While the event is no stranger to golfers, this is the first time the Mexico Open at Vidanta is sanctioned by the PGA Tour with a full allotment of FedExCup points and a hefty paycheck going to the winner. Played in some form as the country’s national championship since 1944, the tournament essentially takes the place of the WGC event that was played in Mexico for the past several years. A ... 

All season players go head to head in individual stroke play tournaments, but for one week the PGA Tour deviates from its normal format with the only full-field team event. This week 80 teams of two players hit TPC Louisiana for the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. Teams will play a best ball format on Thursday and Saturday with alternate shot used on Friday and... 

The only full-field team event on the PGA Tour takes place this week with the playing of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. The field of 80 two-man teams will play a best ball format in rounds one and three and alternate shot format in rounds two and four at TPC Louisiana, located just outside of New Orleans. The top 33 teams and ties will advance to the weeke... 

Following the first major of the season is a tough act, but the RBC Heritage has done a nice job over the years and is back at it with a strong field ready to navigate Harbour Town Golf Links this week. Several players make the short trek from Augusta to Hilton Head S.C., including Collin Morikawa, who emerged as the betting favorite in the outright market. In all, five of t... 

One thing we know for sure this week is that Scottie Scheffler won’t win. After capturing his first career major at the Masters for his fourth title in six starts, Scheffler is giving the rest of the PGA Tour a chance by sitting out the RBC Heritage. A stout field is on tap with several big names making the trip from Augusta to Hilton Head, S.C. this week. The top of the odd...
