The Palmetto Championship at Congaree begins Thursday in Ridgeland, S.C., and serves as the fine tune-up before next week’s U.S. Open at Torrey Pines.
The event replaces the RBC Canadian Open, which was canceled for the second consecutive year due to COVID-19. The field includes only two top-10 players in No. 1 Dustin Johnson and No. 8 Brooks Koepka, who are the co-favorites at +800 by PointsBet. Tournament notes, betting odds and best bets:
Johnson (+800 at PointsBet) tied for second at the Houston Open ahead of winning the Masters in November. It was the most recent time he played the week before a major. Johnson does not have a top 10 finish in his past seven starts.
Brooks Koepka (+800) is also playing for the first time since a T2 at the PGA Championship. He has three runner-up finishes in his past six starts. He is first at PointsBet with 3.91 percent of the winner handle backing him and second with 3.45 percent of the total winner bets.
