Before locking in any 2024 Open Championship picks, make sure you see the PGA Tour predictions and best bets from golf betting and fantasy expert Sia Nejad.
Nejad specializes in betting and DFS in golf, among other sports. He's had incredible success in the outright and first-round leader markets and in betting head-to-head matchups. He also has been strong with his head-to-head matchups since last year's Charles Schwab Challenge, going 51-36-5 and returning 11.93 units over that span.
Nejad also nailed 75-1 longshot Wyndham Clark as the outright winner at the Wells Fargo Championship in 2023. The same year, SportsLine debuted The Early Wedge, and in the first three months of the show, he hit two first-round leaders and three outright winners.
Now, Nejad has been digging into the 2024 Open Championship field to find the best value and just locked in his best bets and favorites to avoid.
One surprise: Nejad is fading Tommy Fleetwood, even though he is ranked No. 12 in the world. Another curveball: Nejad is high on former Open champion Collin Morikawa, even though he's a double-digit longshot! "I think the strategy required by this course fits his style quite well," Nejad told SportsLine.
Nejad is also jumping on a longshot who's priced at more than +6000! This player "certainly seems to be in good form" and could surprise. You ABSOLUTELY need to see whom it is before locking in any 2024 Open Championship picks of your own.
So which 2024 Open Championship players should you target or avoid, and which HUGE longshot could bring a huge payday of more than 60-1? ... Join SportsLine right now to see Sia Nejad's picks for the 2024 Open Championship, all from the expert who is 51-36 on his last 92 golf head-to-head picks!
