U.S. Open Field and Course

Los Angeles Country Club was founded in the late 1890's, but has sat in its current location and general form since 1911 in Beverly Hills. While the country club is known for being one of the best courses in the area, the 2023 U.S. Open will be the first major golf tournament hosted here.

This year's U.S. Open 156-player field features almost all the world's top golfers. The most famous name in golf though, Tiger Woods, will be absent, as he's still recovering from ankle surgery. Both major winners from this season Jon Rahm (Masters) and Brooks K oepka (PGA Championship) will be teeing it up.

U.S. Open Picks & Predictions

With Brooks Koepka being healthy again, coming off a big major win at the PGA Championship, I find it hard to pick against him. Still getting him at +1100 to win seems like solid value for Koepka in a major. He was T2 at The Masters and won the PGA Championship. and while he was terrible in majors during 2022, clearly dealing with injuries, prior to that he was just as automatic.

From the 2015 U .S. Open until the 2021 Open Championship (22 starts), he only placed outside the top 20 in a major three times. In that same span, he had 14 top-10 finishes and four wins. When he is right, he is almost always in contention at the majors. Take him to win back-to-back here. If you're a little timid on the win bet, take him to place top five or top 10.

Pick: Brooks Koepka to win (+1100)
