Scottie Scheffler is betting favorite

The 2024 PGA Championship betting odds show the betting favorite in the field this week is Scottie Scheffler, who comes in at 9-to-2 (+450) betting odds.

Rory McIlroy, on the back of a great season so far, is next best at 12-to-1.

The defending champion Koepka is on 16-to-1 to start the week.

2024 PGA Championship betting picks and first looks

Ludvig Aberg seemed a man on a mission, however, his knee injury is a serious concern. Koepka seems a better play given his recent LIV win.

Max Homa has not been at his best, save for in the majors, where he has steadily improved. I like him to do it again.

Ben An may be my sleeper pick now, as he likes Nicklaus designs and has been playing well recently. The only knock? He never wins. For the same reason, Denny McCarthy may be an interesting sleeper.
