2023 Ryder Cup odds, top picks, teams: Surprising predictions, best bets from proven golf expert
Home course advantage has been a huge factor in recent Ryder Cups. The United States and Europe have traded winning the last four Ryder Cup championships, with the host winning each time. The host team has also won seven of the last eight Ryder Cups as the 2023 Ryder Cup tees off on Friday at the Marco Simone Golf & Country Club, just outside of Rome, Italy. The Americans, led by the world’s No. 1 ranked golfer Scottie Scheffler, seek their first victory on European soil since 1993. Golfers like Xander Schauffele, Patrick Cantlay and Max Homa will also be crucial if Americans can win on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.
Team USA is listed as the slight +110 underdog (risk $100 to win $110) in the latest 2023 Ryder Cup odds. Team Europe, with the world’s No. 2 Rory McIlroy and No. 3 Jon Rahm, is the -105 favorite. A tie returns +1100 and there are a bevy of 2023 Ryder Cup props on the Ryder Cup odds board. There are plenty of ways to bet on the Ryder Cup 2023, but before you lock in your 2023 Ryder Cup picks, be sure to see the best bets and predictions from SportsLine’s Mike McClure.
McClure’s proprietary golf model has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June 2020. In fact, the model is up more than $9,000 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
McClure’s model predicted Jon Rahm would finish on top of the leaderboard at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions and The American Express. And at the 2023 Masters, the model was all over Rahm’s second career major victory heading into the weekend. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the third round, but the model still projected him as the winner. It was the second straight Masters win for the model, which also nailed Scottie Scheffler winning in 2022.
In addition, the model included Nick Taylor in its best bets to win the 2023 RBC Canadian Open. That bet hit at +7000, and for the entire tournament, McClure’s best bets returned nearly $1,900. McClure’s best bets also included Jason Day (17-1) winning outright at the 2023 AT&T Byron Nelson and Rickie Fowler (14-1) finishing on top of the leaderboard at the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic.
This same model has also nailed a whopping 10 majors entering the weekend. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.
Now, McClure has evaluated the 2023 Ryder Cup odds and locked in his best bets. Head to SportsLine now to see the top picks and predictions for the Ryder Cup 2023.
Top 2023 Ryder Cup predictions
McClure’s 2023 Ryder Cup best bets include backing Wyndham Clark to finish as the top USA rookie at +260 odds. Clark had a strong finish to the summer, including finishing third at the Tour Championship in the season’s final event. Clark won the U.S. Open and Wells Fargo Championship as a part of a season in which he had eight top-10 finishes in 28 events.
Clark has climbed to No. 10 in the world and could play a key role for an American team to win its first consecutive Ryder Cups since 1991 and 1993. The 29-year-old was 12th on the PGA Tour in total strokes gained, 11th in driving distance and 15th in scoring average on the 2022-23 PGA Tour season. Clark was 22nd in one-putt percentage (42.48%), and Clark has the all-around skillset to easily become the top-finishing USA rookie at the Ryder Cup 2023.
McClure is also targeting Ludvig Aberg to finish as the top European rookie at +165 odds. The 23-year old Swedish golfer is one of just four rookies on Team Europe, giving him a great shot to cash this prop. Aberg appeared in nine PGA events in 2023 and his results were impressive in that sample size.
He missed just one cut and recorded five performances of T25 or better. He saved some of his best performances for last, including a T4 finish at the John Deere Classic in July and a T14 finish at the Wyndham Championship in August. He also won the Omega European Masters earlier in September with an impressive 19-under performance. He’s the first player to ever be picked for the Ryder Cup without first playing in a major. That’s a lot of confidence shown by Donald in selecting him, so you can expect Aberg to be heavily utilized at the Ryder Cup 2023. See the rest of McClure’s best bets right here.
