US Open Odds: Dustin Johnson And Tommy Fleetwood Most Backed

We analyze the latest from the betting markets for the 2020 US Open; Golf’s second major of the year

With the US Open getting underway on Thursday, we’ve taken a look at the best backed golfers by bettors in the last two days. Considering the favorite for this year’s US Open is trading at +850 (best odds) it’s unsurprising that bettors are spreading their money around, however two golfers stand out as the best backed.

One of those golfers is the favorite Dustin Johnson. In the last 48 hours, DJ has accounted for 6.2% of total bets on the 2020 US Open and that’s certainly not a surprise. The world number one is the favorite this week and comes into the event off the back of a win at the Tour Championship, where he also took home the season-long FedEx Cup Championship.

FanDuel currently offer the best odds for Dustin Johnson this week at +850. That means that if you wager $100, you’d profit $850 if he comes out on top. If you wager $100 at the worst odds (+750), you’d win only $750, so a $100 difference in profit for one wager.

While DJ being well backed is certainly not a surprise, the identity of the best backed golfer for the event is somewhat a surprise to most. That man is Tommy Fleetwood, who comes into the event off of the back of a third-place finish on the European Tour and it seems bettors were encouraged enough with that performance to wager on him breaking his major-duck. He has accounted for 7.75% of total bets for the second major of the year in the last two days, the most of any man in the line-up.

Of the rest, Rory McIlroy and Xander Schauffele are popular with bettors accounting for 4.39% and 4.9% of total bets respectively.

Knicks vs Spurs Game 2 Odds: Polymarket Backs San Antonio at 68% Despite the Spurs Trailing 1-0

The NBA Finals stay in San Antonio with the New York Knicks up 1-0 on the Spurs, and Polymarket is leaning hard the other way for Game 2. The board prices San Antonio at 68% to even the series, with Knicks shares sitting down at 32%. The pitch is home court and a Wembanyama bounce-back after his 6-for-21 opener, not the team that actually won Game 1. More than $5 million has traded on the market, and the Spurs' number has stayed pinned near the top since the loss. Tip-off is Friday, June 5 at 8:30 p.m. ET, 5:30 p.m. PT, on ABC.

Knicks vs Spurs Game 2 Odds: San Antonio Jumps to 66% on Kalshi Despite Dropping Game 1

The NBA Finals stay in San Antonio with the New York Knicks up 1-0 on the Spurs, yet the betting market is leaning the other way for Game 2. Kalshi prices San Antonio at 66% to even the series, with Spurs Yes shares running 68¢ against New York's 34¢. The logic is home court and a Wembanyama bounce-back after his 6-for-21 opener, not the team that actually won Game 1. More than $10.6 million has traded on the Kalshi market, and the Spurs' number climbed after the loss instead of falling. Tip-off is Friday, June 5 at 8:30 p.m. ET, 5:30 p.m. PT, on ABC.

Hurricanes vs Golden Knights Game 3 Odds: Hurricanes Tick to 52% on Polymarket to Take the 2-1 Series Lead

The Stanley Cup Final shifts to Las Vegas with the Carolina Hurricanes and Vegas Golden Knights tied at a game apiece, and Polymarket just cracked open a fresh book on it. The series-score market gives Carolina a slim 52% edge to grab a 2-1 lead, with Vegas a hair back at 48%. Buying Yes runs 54¢ on Carolina and 51¢ on Vegas, and that gap shows how thin the order book still is. Only a few dollars have traded so far, so a single bet can swing the number. Puck drops Saturday, June 6 at 8 p.m. ET, 5 p.m. PT, on ABC.
