Where is Jon Rahm’s best chance of winning a major in 2020?

Event 2020 Venue Best career result Odds
Masters Augusta National 4th (2018) +1400
PGA Championship TPC Harding Park T-4 (2018) +1600
US Open Winged Foot T-3 (2019) +2000
Open Championship Royal St. George’s T-11 (2019) +1600

Rahm missed the cut at two of the four majors in 2018, but he finished fourth or T-4 at each of the other two. He also missed the cut at last season’s PGA Championship in between a T-9 finish at the Masters and a T-3 at the U.S. Open. His best odds in 2020 come at the Masters, which is the only major where he has never missed a cut.

Will Jon Rahm win a major in 2020?

Among the golfers in the top 10 of the Official World Golf Ranking Rahm is one of the ones I like the most for the generic major bet. His best and worst sides can be difficult to predict, and his odds aren’t attractive enough at any of the individual events.
