WM Phoenix Open Odds & Favorites

Shout out to DraftKings for once again jumping the gun and posting early WM Phoenix Open odds for the tournament that'll conclude on Super Bowl Sunday near Phoenix, AZ.

The WM Phoenix Open has become one of the most popular PGA Tour events on the calendar. Running during the week of the Super Bowl each year surely helps, as does the eccentric party-like atmosphere that floods TPC Scottsdale's Stadium Course.

For the second straight year, DraftKings is capitalizing on this popularity while releasing outright odds for the WM Phoenix Open months before the actual event. That was previously done for only the four majors.

Bettors should note that the listed betting options may not necessarily be in the final field announced the Friday before the tournament. You'll be refunded in full if your early picks withdraw.

Here's our look at the (very) early WM Phoenix Open odds from our best golf betting sites.

WM Phoenix Open betting analysis

The first thing bettors need to note is that the 2024 PGA Tour schedule looks much different than it did for 2023. The 2022 WM Phoenix Open was not only played during the week of the Super Bowl in Arizona, but it was also a designated event to help draw out many of the top golfers from the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR).

The WM Phoenix Open now isn't a signature event in 2024, and it's sandwiched between two others—the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Genesis Invitational. That will likely cause many of the WM Phoenix Open favorites listed above to skip the event, making it the ideal time to target some long shots on the early oddsboard before their prices are drastically reduced.

Scottie Scheffler (+700 via DraftKings)

Scheffler is the only player of the top WM Phoenix Open favorites I'd expect to participate in this event, as he'll be defending his 2023 victory.

Given the nature of the PGA Tour's schedule in 2024 and the priority that'll be given to the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Genesis Invitational, I'd expect the likes of Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, and possibly Viktor Hovland to withdraw. Their departure from the oddsboard would make Scheffler an even more popular bet and result in our best sports betting apps lowering his odds significantly.
