U.S. Open Odds 2023: Rahm, McIlroy Favored as Fitzpatrick Looks to Defend Title

Jon Rahm, the 2021 U.S. Open champ, is the early consensus favorite for the third major of 2023 as we break down the U.S. Open odds.

The 2023 U.S. Open will be the first PGA Tour event held at the Los Angeles Country Club since 1926. The 7,200-yard, par-70 venue may be unfamiliar to this year's field under professional settings, but many of the top U.S. Open contenders are native to California.

Read on as we preview the 2023 U.S. Open odds and break down the favorites, contenders, and long shots (odds via DraftKings Sportsbook, FanDuel Sportsbook, BetMGM, Caesars Sportsbook, and PointsBet).

U.S. Open odds analysis

It's good to note that FanDuel is offering the best prices on each of Rahm and McIlroy as the consensus favorites. Value disperses across the rest of the market the further down the board we go.

DraftKings remains the only one of our best sportsbooks not offering U.S. Open odds for those who'll be returning from the LIV Golf Invitational Series, including Cameron Smith, Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka, Bryson DeChambeau, and Phil Mickelson.

U.S. Open odds movement

Few have seen bigger movement in their U.S. Open odds than Max Homa, who has improved from No. 17 to No. 6 in the in the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR) since the end of 2022.

On the flip side, the U.S. Open odds have been rising for reigning champion Matt Fitzpatrick. That's not unsurprising given his injury concerns, current form, and the fact the U.S. Open is shifting to Los Angeles from last year's tournament near Boston.

U.S. Open odds 2023: Favorite

Max Homa (+2000)

The U.S. Open might be the only major this year in which I'm willing to fade each of the top three golfers in the OWGR. That's not a detriment to Scheffler, Rahm, or McIlroy, especially with Rahm collecting two wins on the PGA Tour's West Coast swing early this year. However, Homa—now ranked sixth in the OWGR—opened 2023 with a win and a runner-up finish in his native California. The U.S. Open odds are right for backing Homa's major breakthrough.

U.S. Open odds 2023: Contender

Cameron Young (+4400)

The reigning PGA Tour Rookie of the Year, Young carries much higher odds than the numerous California natives in the contender tier. Though Young missed the cut in each of his three U.S. Open appearances to date, he has plenty of distance to spare and finally showed some of his 2022 form at the WGC-Match Play. He has two top-three finishes and four missed cuts in six career major appearances, so there's plenty of value in these odds that reflect his boom-or-bust nature.

U.S. Open odds 2023: Long shot

Si Woo Kim (+19000)

The staple conditions of a U.S. Open, combined with the West Coast winds, lend themselves to a long-shot winner better than the other majors. These U.S. Open odds for Kim are far too high considering his four career PGA Tour victories, including the 2021 American Express in California.

U.S. Open odds 2023: Fade

Collin Morikawa (+2200)

A two-time major winner, Morikawa is rightfully priced among the U.S. Open favorites, and if these odds were just a little bit higher I might be very interested. However, Morikawa doesn't have the same distance as others in this tier of the U.S. Open oddsboard, and his putting has been in disarray early in 2023. The U.S. Open is the major that worst suits Morikawa's game and may long elude him.

U.S. Open odds 2023: Tiger Woods (+7000)

Tiger's odds to win the U.S. Open dropped across the board after an impressive showing at The Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club. He should be expected to play only the four majors the rest of the year, and his odds will be entirely dependent on his performance in the Masters. With this year's tournament held at a rare major venue where Tiger doesn't have an experience edge over the competition, I'm unlikely to invest in him via the outright market.
