2024 Sony Open: PGA Tour Predictions, Bets, Odds 1/11/24

This week, the PGA Tour presents golf bettors with the 2024 Sony Open.

Before I dive into my favorite bets for the first full field event of the PGA Tour season, let's take a quick look at the golf course the field will play and the key player statistics that I feel are the most vital to a player's success at this week's 2024 Sony Open. 

The 2024 Sony Open will be played at the Waialae Country Club in Honolulu, Hawaii. The golf course is a par 70 that measures approximately 7,044 yards. This track features tree lined fairways and rather small green complexes. Water hazards are in play on two holes. Additionally, this golf course will present this week's tournament field with bermuda grass fairways and greens.

The key player statistics that I will be focusing on this week are strokes gained ball striking, GIR (greens in regulation), bogey avoidance, and strokes gained putting.

Now let's shift our attention to my favorite bets for the 2024 Sony Open.

Here is a golfer to consider placing on your card to finish in the top ten.

Brian Harman +280

Since the beginning of July, Brian Harman played ten tournaments on the PGA Tour. In those ten events just noted, Brian Harman accumulated eight top 25 finishes, including an impressive win at the 2024 Open Championship.

In relation to this week's current listed 2024 Sony Open field, in the last 36 rounds played on the PGA Tour, Brian Harman ranks sixth in strokes gained putting, ninth in birdie or better percentage, and first in bogey avoidance.

It should also be noted that Brian Harman finished fourth at the 2023 Sony Open.   

Here is a golfer to consider placing on your card to finish in the top 20.

Byeong-Hun An +280

Last week, Byeong-Hun An fired a second round 64 at the 2024 Sentry en route to an eventual fourth place finish.

Byeong-Hun An has posted a quality result at the Sony Open previously. More specifically, An finished 12th at the 2023 Sony Open.

In summary, I am backing Byeong-Hun An to post a top 20 result at odds of +280.
