2024 U.S. Open picks, odds, field: Surprising predictions by PGA golf model that's hit 12 majors

SportsLine's proven model simulated the U.S. Open 2024 10,000 times and revealed its surprising PGA Tour golf picks

Justin Thomas is hoping his prior experience at Pinehurst No. 2 will lead to success at the 2024 U.S. Open. The Kentucky native got his first look at the difficult North Carolina course as a 21-year-old at the 2014 U.S. Open, one year after he turned pro. Since then, Thomas has won 15 career events, including two major victories. He is coming off a T8 finish at the PGA Championship and hoping his current form will help him in a competitive 2024 U.S. Open field. Thomas is a 35-1 longshot in the latest 2024 U.S. Open odds, while world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is the 11-4 favorite.

Should you back a longshot like Thomas, or is picking one of the 2024 U.S. Open contenders like Scheffler a safer bet? Before locking in any 2024 U.S. Open picks of your own, entering PGA DFS lineups on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel, or finalizing U.S. Open props and U.S. Open Pick 6 or PrizePicks entries, be sure to see the 2024 U.S. Open golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.

Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact, the model is up almost $9,000 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.

McClure's model correctly predicted Scheffler would finish on top of the leaderboard at the 2024 Masters, the Arnold Palmer Invitational, and The Players Championship this season. McClure also included Hideki Matsuyama in his best bets to win the 2024 Genesis Invitational. That bet hit at +9000, and for the entire tournament, McClure's best bets returned nearly $1,000.

The model also predicted Rahm would be victorious at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions and The American Express. At the 2023 Masters, the model was all over Rahm's second career major victory heading into the weekend. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the third round, but the model still projected him as the winner. It was the second straight Masters win for the model, which also nailed Scheffler winning in 2022.

This same model has also nailed a whopping 12 majors entering the weekend, including the last three Masters and 2024 PGA Championship. Anyone who has followed it is way up.

Now with the U.S. Open 2024 approaching, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard.

Top 2024 U.S. Open predictions

One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2024 U.S. Open: Xander Schauffele, one of the top favorites and the most recent major winner at the PGA Championship, stumbles and barely cracks the top five. Schauffele finally picked up his first major win in 28 tries when he held off Bryson DeChambeau and Viktor Hovland at Valhalla in May.

That has vaulted him up in the PGA odds as he's now the co-second favorite in the U.S. Open 2024 odds. However, his overall track record doesn't justify that kind of status as he has just three top-five finishes in majors since 2019. He also was shaky at The Memorial over the weekend, shooting two rounds of 73 or higher to fall out of contention. The model has found better values to utilize in 2024 U.S. Open bets. See who else to fade here.

Another surprise: Brooks Koepka, a 35-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He has a much better chance to win than his long odds imply, so he's a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. The 2023 PGA Championship winner likes to elevate his game at major events, especially at the U.S. Open. Koepka is the last golfer to successfully defend a U.S. Open title, winning the third major of the season in 2017 and again in 2018.

Koepka has also played well at Pinehurst No. 2 in the past, finishing T4 when the U.S. Open was last held there in 2014. The 34-year-old didn't finish in the top 20 at either the Masters or the PGA Championship this year, but his experience at Pinehurst and his prior major success give him a stronger chance to win than his long odds entail. See who else to back here.

How to make 2024 U.S. Open picks

The model is also targeting two other golfers with odds of 20-1 or longer to make a strong run at the title. It's also targeting two triple-digit longshots in its best bets. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model's picks here.
