Texas Children’s Houston Open 2024 PGA Tour picks to win, odds

After four weeks in the Sunshine State for the Florida Swing, the PGA Tour heads west for the Texas Children’s Houston Open at Memorial Park Golf Course in Houston.

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler – winner of his last two starts at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and Players Championship – is the heavy betting favorite at +260 (13/5) and is joined in the field by Wyndham Clark, Sahith Theegala, Will Zalatoris, defending champion Tony Finau and Jason Day. In his last two trips to Memorial Park, Scheffler has finished 9th (2023) and 2nd (2022).

This week is the second-to-last opportunity for players to earn their way into the year’s first major championship – the Masters is slated for April 11-14 – if they’re not already exempt.

The total purse in Houston is $9.1 million with $1.638 million going to the winner.
