US Open Golf Odds & Betting Markets
The US Open is one of golf’s majors, and all elite players want to win it. Of all the majors, it’s often played on the toughest tracks, limiting scoring opportunities and punishing wayward shots with devilish sand traps and super thick rough.
Here, we look forward to the 2026 US Open and consider which golfers will compete at the tournament's business end. We also explain how to bet on golf responsibly by creating an account at Parimatch Sportsbook.
When and Where is the 2026 US Open?
The 2026 US Open is the 126th edition and will be held at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, New York. This will be the sixth US Open to be held at Shinnecock Hills.
The last US Open at Shinnecock Hills was in 2018, when Brooks Koepka won with a hard-fought 281 to edge it ahead of Tommy Fleetwood. In winning the 2018 US Open, Brooks became only the third man to successfully defend the crown since the Second World War.

US Open Betting Options
After creating an account at Parimatch, you can do your research and prepare your betting slip for the US Open. Below are the most popular betting markets available for this tournament:
Outright Winner
The most popular market among golf fans is picking the winner of the US Open. Decide who has what it takes to lead the pack into the final day and secure victory in one of the toughest tests in golf.
At Parimatch, we also offer each-way betting options for the US Open. So, if you back a player to win and they finish in the top five places, you will win ¼ of the odds.
First-Round Leader
Some players get off to a brilliant start in major tournaments, only to fall away over the weekend. Freddie Couples at Augusta National comes to mind, but many golfers tend to play well on opening days at major tournaments on different tracks.
If you have some insight or a good feeling about a player who will lead the pack after day one, you can bet on them to be the first-round leader, essentially turning the US Open into an 18-hole shootout as far as your betting slip is concerned.
Make the Cut
After the opening two rounds, only the top 60 players progress through to the weekend; the rest are cut from the field. So, players must be at their best over 72 holes to bring the trophy home.
At Parimatch, rather than backing a player to win outright, you can back them to make the cut, which means you fancy them getting through to the final two days of play. Just be careful – one lousy round can cause even the world’s top players to miss the cut!
Group Betting
Group betting is a fun way to narrow the field in US Open betting. Our group betting options enable you to place a wager on the top-performing golfer from a small group of two or four players.
Rather than competing against the 100+ field, your chosen player only needs to be the best in their group for you to win your wager.
US Open Previous Winners
JJ Spaun is the current US Open champion after winning the 2025 tournament at Oakmont in Pennsylvania. His one-under-par 279 was enough to see off the challenge of Bob McIntyre, as Spaun finished as the only player under par in one of the toughest US Opens of the past decade.
Spaun’s triumph marked the third consecutive US Open win for an American, following Bryson’s win at Pinehurst in 2024 and Wyndham Clark’s surprise victory at Los Angeles Country Club in 2023.
The last European player to win the US Open was Matt Fitzpatrick in 2022, following a blistering six-under-par triumph at The Country Club in Massachusetts.
Below are details of the previous ten winners of the US Open, highlighting the guys who have experience of winning one of the most demanding majors:
US Open Betting Tips for Responsible Gambling
Eight of the past ten US Opens have been won by American players, and European golfers tend to struggle at this event.
Since the turn of the century, Graeme McDowell, Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose, Martin Kaymer, Jon Rahm, and Matt Fitzpatrick are the only Europeans to have won a US Open title, suggesting the smart money is on a US player in 2026.
Additionally, US Open tracks can sometimes be low-scoring, more so than the Open Championship, US Masters and the PGA Championship. For instance, Geoff Ogilvy and Angel Cabrera both won with scores of 285 (+5) in 2005 and 2006, respectively, while Webb Simpson, Justin Rose, and Brooks Koepka have all won the US Open since 2000 with scores over par.
Oakmont played long and treacherous again in 2025, with eventual winner JJ Spaun the only player who managed to finish under par, underscoring just how challenging the US Open can be for the world’s best players.
So, the bottom line is to do your research, analyse the conditions, and pick in-form golfers to do well at this year’s US Open. Please also remember to gamble responsibly and bet within your means – find out more via our Safer Gambling Portal.
