Scheffler’s odds have actually gotten slightly longer from where they opened on Sunday night (+290) but he remains the shortest favorite at a major since Tiger Woods in 2009.
The 39-year-old Kaymer, who now plays on the LIV Golf tour, is listed at +30000 to win for a second time at Pinehurst.
Scheffler Enters 2024 US Open Red-Hot
Scheffler’s incomprehensible hot streak continued last weekend with a win at the Memorial Tournament in Dublin, OH. Scheffler looked mortal on Sunday, firing a two-over 74 in tough conditions but that was enough hold off Collin Morikawa for a one-stroke victory at Muirfield.
Scheffler has now won five tournaments on tour already this season and hasn’t finished worse than T10 in any of his last eleven starts. All five of his victories have come in his last eight tournaments, and he also has a pair of T2s in that span and a T8 at the first major of the season, the PGA Championship.
Scheffler widened his already-massive lead in Strokes Gained after his victory at Muirfield. Scheffler now sits at +2.913 while second-ranked Xander Schauffele is back at 2.223 an third-ranked Rory McIlroy is at just 1.662. The gap between Scheffler and fourth-ranked Alex Noren (1.238) is bigger than the gap between Noren and 143rd-ranked Alejandro Tosti (-0.434).
Schauffele Continues Strong 2024
If it wasn’t for Scheffler’s current tear, a lot more people in the golf world would be talking about world #2 Xander Schauffele. After a T8 at Muirfield last week, the 30-year-old has now finished in the top ten in five of his last six tournaments, including his first-even major victory at the PGA Championship three weeks ago.
As mentioned, Schauffele is second in overall Strokes Gained this season, which includes sitting second in SG: Tee-to-Green, sixth in SG: Approach the Green, and seventh in SG: Off-the-Tee.
Schauffele also has a rock-solid history at the US Open: in seven previous starts, he’s never finished worse than T14 and each of his other six appearances results in a top-ten finish. His best was a T3 back in 2019 at Pebble Beach. Last year at Los Angeles Country Club, he finished T10 at -3.
