The US Open tees off tomorrow at Shinnecock, and we’ve got a list of the top-4 prop bets to make for the third major of the year.
Also, take a look at our top-three outright win bets based on favorite, sleeper, and longshot tiers. Unless otherwise noted, we’ll be using odds from DraftKings Sportsbook for our top props below.
Top-Five Finishes at US Open
Matt Fitzpatrick (+400)
Matt Fitzpatrick won the 2022 US Open at The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts. The Englishman joined Jack Nicklaus as the only players to win the U.S. Open and U.S. Amateur at the same course.
Fitzpatrick is enjoying his finest season on the PGA Tour, with wins at the Valspar Championship, the RBC Heritage, and the Zurich Classic, partnering with his brother Alex in the team event. Oh, and Fitzy is coming off a runner-up finish at last week’s Canadian Open.
His major performances have been solid this year, with a T-18 at The Masters and a T-14 at the PGA Championship. We think he makes a solid push for a second US Open title and lands firmly in the top five.
Tommy Fleetwood +390
Here’s another Englishman to keep an eye on. Tommy Fleetwood‘s current form has been impeccable. Check out his last three starts heading into the US Open:
- Truist Championship T-5
- The Memorial T-4
- Canadian Open T-11
Shinnecock rewards players for their accuracy off the tee and on approach, two areas where Fleetwood excels. He’s also no stranger to handling heavy winds, given his history of play back home. Strong winds are forecast for Southampton, Long Island, this week.
Fleetwood made his US Open debut at Shinnecock in 2018, finishing runner-up to Brooks Koepka. He also has top-five US Open finishes at Erin Hills (fourth in 2017) and the Los Angeles Country Club (T-5 in 2023).
Top-10 Finish at US Open
Alex Fitzpatrick (+650)
Sensing a theme with our selections so far? Yes, here’s another Englishman for your consideration. This season’s been a coming-out party for the younger Fitzpatrick, who captured his first PGA Tour win in the Zurich Classic.
He’s played in three signature events since then. Check out the results:
- Cadillac Championship T-9
- Truist Championship 4th
- The Memorial T-6
Fitzpatrick, like his fellow countrymen, knows how to navigate the wind on links-style layouts. This looks like a sneaky good play.
Editor’s note: With any of these placement bets, make sure that they include ties. There’s nothing worse than thinking they do only to find out otherwise. It shaves your winnings accordingly if three or five players tie for the same position.
