Golf betting tips for The US Open (in more detail):
Xander Schauffele:
To win outright (2 points win @ 11/1).
Current form (last 5 starts): 8 – T18 – 2 – 1 – T8.
Reasons to believe – Xander Schauffele:
“This is his first time starting a major tournament, as a major champion! He put together another impressive showing last week with a T8 finish at the Memorial. I have a feeling we could see Xander, Scottie and Rory in contention come Sunday.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Rory McIlroy:
To win outright (2 points win @ 11/1).
Current form (last 5 starts): T33 – 1 -T12 – T4 – T15.
Reasons to believe – Rory McIlroy:
“In the last five U.S. Open tournaments Rory has finished in the top 10 and was runner-up last year. The fact the tournament is played at a different course each year doesn’t seem to phase Rory, who clearly relishes how the USGA always set-up the course for this specific week. He is in good form this season, coming here with 5 top 15 finishes including two wins, so I am hopeful this continues this week.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Ludvig Aberg:
To win outright (1 point e/w @ 20/1 – 8 places).
Current form (last 5 starts): T14 – 2 – T10 – MC – T5.
Reasons to believe – Ludvig Aberg:
“Even though he’s still looked upon as the new kid on Tour, he’s one of the few who have some experience at Pinehurt, having played in the 2019 U.S. Amateur. He’s coming in hot after a good T5 finish at the Memorial last week, where he looked over his recent injury.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Colin Morikawa:
Each-way (2 points win @ 14/1).
Current form (last 5 starts): 9 – T16 – T4 – 4 – 2.
Reasons to believe – Colin Morikawa:
“Colin comes here in great form and can hopefully complete the third leg of the career grand slam. He started the season with a strong T3 at the Masters and has followed it up with four top 10 and six top 25 finishes. He ended up only one shot behind the winner last week at the Memorial tournament. Amazing what happens when you go back to basics and re-discover the original game that got your first 2 major wins.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Big Dal’s, big price outsider – Hideki Matsuyama:
Each-way (1 point e/w @ 45/1 – 8 places).
Current form (last 5 starts): T6 – T7 – T38 – T35 – T8.
Reasons to believe – Hideki Matsuyama:
“Impressive T8 finish at last week’s Memorial. Hideki showcased his classic tee-to-green skills and led the field in scrambling, which will be huge this week at Pinehurst.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
