Get PGA sleeper picks and predictions for the 2024 U.S. Open, plus golf picks for the U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 on June 13-16.
While Max Homa hasn't had any success here at the U.S. Open, he's played much better at majors over the last year and we expect that trend to continue at Pinehurst this week. He highlights our U.S. Open sleeper picks below.The 2024 U.S. Open is here, and Pinehurst No. 2 is set to test the field for the fourth time. Alone atop this week's golf odds is World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, as he looks to win his second major championship and sixth tournament of the season.
Still, there were only three players to shoot under par when the track hosted the 2014 U.S. Open. The 117 bunkers and penial native areas featuring wiregrass are prominent throughout the track and can bring bogeys into play in bunches. Additionally, while accuracy off the tee will be critical, it's also important to highlight the forgiving fairway landing areas that stretch 35-40 yards wide — atypical of traditional U.S. Open setups.
Switchbacks are an additional characteristic of Pinehurst No. 2, with 10 tee shots moving left to right and then a number of second shots requiring a right-to-left shot shape to the green. Again, it reinforces the importance of accuracy while also having a strategic tee-to-green plan.Even with his underwhelming U.S. Open track record, I’m interested because of the odds. He’s begun to play better at majors with a T10-T3-T35 run since the 2023 Open Championship.
Again, English isn't a statistical darling heading into this event. He ranks 30th in this field in driving accuracy and 56th in true strokes gained tee-to-green across his past 76 measured rounds, but ranking eighth in true strokes gained putting has my attention.
