Scottie Scheffler took a commanding three-shot lead after Saturday’s round at the PGA Championship. The World No. 1 shot a six-under 65 that included seven birdies and an eagle. To no one’s surprise, he is a heavy favorite to win the event on DraftKings Sportsbook. Full odds below.

Winner Without Scheffler
Most Birdies or Better Round 4
Scheffler is only up three shots, yet the next closest golfer in the betting market, Alex Noren, is still +1800. That is a respect level that we have not seen since prime Tiger Woods. This is still golf, however, and all it takes is for Scheffler to falter is to shoot even par and have someone close to him on the leaderboard go low. With that said, if you wanted to throw a sprinkle on either Noren, J.T. Poston or Jon Rahm, it certainly wouldn’t be the worst idea.
The without Scheffler market is way more interesting because of how wide open it is. There are currently 14 golfers within four shots of Noren’s eight-under score. Rahm is two back, while Bryson DeChambeau is just three back and lurking. He was at eight-under before imploding on Holes 16 and 17 on Saturday, where he went bogey, double-bogey back-to-back to close.
