Paris 2024 Olympic men’s golf odds, predictions: Sunday surprise prediction from model that has been correct in 13 majors

The 2024 Olympic men’s golf finals begin early Sunday morning, and it’s an intriguing leaderboard filled with stars. Spain’s Jon Rahm and the United States’ Xander Schauffele top the leaderboard at 14 under par. Schauffele is the defending Olympic gold medalist, but he’ll have to beat some tough competition if he’s to repeat. Seven golfers are just four shots behind the lead, including Tommy Fleetwood (-13), Nicolai Højgaard (-11), Hideki Matsuyama (-11), Rory McIlroy (-10), Scottie Scheffler (-10), Tom Kim (-10) and Thomas Detry (-10).

Schauffele is the slightly favorite at +150 (risk $100 to win $150) in the 2024 Olympic men’s golf odds, followed by Rahm (+200) and Fleetwood (+550). In total, six golfers are priced at +2500 or lower, making for an exciting Sunday at Le Golf National in France.

Top predictions for golf at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games on Sunday

The model predicted a big surprise on Sunday at the 2024 Olympic golf tournament: Scheffler (USA), who was just four strokes behind the lead entering the final round, failed to close the gap and failed to win a medal in his first Olympic appearance.

Scheffler has had a great season, with six wins and 14 top-10s on the PGA Tour. However, he has struggled in the final round in most of his recent starts. In fact, Scheffler has shot 71 or worse in the final round in four of his last five tournaments leading up to the Summer Olympics.

Scheffler’s struggles in the final round could be attributed to his putting. He enters the 2024 Paris Olympics ranked 69th on the PGA Tour with a final-round average of 28.36 strokes gained: putting in the tournament. He also ranks 90th in total strokes gained: putting (.037), which doesn’t bode well for his chances of winning an Olympic medal on Sunday. See all model options here.
