PGA odds: Early lines for U.S. Open, Rory McIlroy favored

The 122nd U.S. Open begins Thursday at The Country Club in Brookline, Mass, and all eyes (for bettors, at least) will be on Rory McIlroy at the U.S. Open this week.

McIlroy’s game is on point heading into the Open. McIlroy posted a two-shot victory Sunday to defend his title at the RBC Canadian Open.

As a result, his odds to win the U.S. Open went from +1200 to the pre-tournament favorite of +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total).

McIlroy won the 2011 U.S. Open at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Md., among his four major victories.

Justin Thomas and Scottie Scheffler round out the top three favorites, both sitting at +1200 to win the event. Jon Rahm, last year’s champion, starts the week at +1400 to win it all.
