Ludvig Aberg @ 14/1 with bet365
The rise to stardom has been stratospheric for Ludvig Aberg. It has not even been a year since the Swede turned professional, and he already has wins on the DP World Tour and PGA Tour, along with playing for the winning European team at the Ryder Cup. Last week, in his major debut, he finished 2nd at the Masters. The sky is the limit for Aberg, and with more tight fairways and small landing zones to deal with at Harbor Town this week, I fancy the Swede to win his biggest title yet! He is 14/1 to take the victory.
Tommy Fleetwood @ 20/1 with bet365
Could this be the week? We’ve all been waiting so long for Tommy Fleetwood to finally get over the line and win on the PGA Tour… The Englishman pieced together a sublime final round at The Masters to move into a tie for 3rd come the end of Sunday’s play. At 20/1, he is one of the favourites to win on Hilton Head Island, and this could well be the time that he finally gets that weight off his shoulders. Unsurprisingly after his three big wins in 2024, Scottie Scheffler is the favourite for the title at just 4/1. However, with wife Meredith about to give birth to their first child, we could see the World No 1 withdraw from this week’s event at any point.
