The PGA Tour heads to golf-crazed Japan this week for the 2024 Zozo Championship, and we have our eyes on a long-shot veteran whose game is rounding into form. Here’s our long-shot pick, the Zozo Championship odds, betting favorites and everything else you need to know.

Zozo Championship odds: Long-shot bet

We’re picking PGA Tour veteran Matt Kuchar (+5500 odds-to-win) as our long-shot pick to win the Zozo. Here’s a little background into why.

By: GOLF Editors

Kuchar is a 46-year-old, nine-time Tour winner whose best golf is likely behind him. His 2024 season is evidence. In 23 starts, Kuchar missed 12 cuts and only recorded one top-10 finish.

But he’s saved his best play for the end of the year. Of his six top 25s this season, he has four top-14 finishes in his last five starts, including a T3 at the 3M Open.

Should Kuchar summon his formerly elite play to capture his 10th title in Japan this week, and you put $10 on him, you’ll walk away with $550. Consider placing additional small bets on Kuchar to finish top 10 and top 20 for insurance.

Looking for more long-shot bets for the Zozo Championship? This week’s honorable mentions are Rickie Fowler (+5000) and Adam Svensson (+6600).

Zozo Championship odds: The favorites

Many stars are back in action for the first time in a while this week, including World No. 2 Xander Schauffele, who comes in as the betting favorite with +450 odds-to-win.

He’s trailed by World No. 4 and defending champion Collin Morikawa (+700) and 2021 Zozo champion Hideki Matsuyama (+850).

You can see the top 15 in Zozo Championship betting odds as of Monday morning below or head over to BetMGM to see the full list of odds and bets for this week.
