Scottie Scheffler shot a second-round 64 on Friday to move into solo first at 10 under, one shot better than Matt Fitzpatrick. Brian Harman and HaoTong Li are two shots back at 8 under, with nobody else in the field better than 5 under.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to the latest 2025 Open Championship odds for the weekend from FanDuel, Scheffler is the -175 favorite (risk $175 to win $100), with Fitzpatrick at +550. The rest of the field is +1400 or higher.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact,\u00a0the model is up nearly $9,000 on its best bets since June 2020, nailing tournament after tournament.<\/p>\n<p>This same model has also nailed a WHOPPING 15 majors entering the weekend, including the 2025 Masters, its fourth Masters in a row, this year&#8217;s PGA Championship and last year&#8217;s U.S. Open!\u00a0Anyone who has followed it could have seen MASSIVE returns!<\/p>\n<p>One surprise the model is calling for heading into the third round of the Open Championship 2025: HaoTong Li, who enters Saturday tied for third, stumbles down the stretch and falls all the way out of the top 5!\u00a0Another surprise: Rory McIlroy, a +2800 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He&#8217;s a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday!<\/p>\n<p>The model has also identified a couple of triple-digit longshots who make a run!\u00a0Anyone who backs these golfers could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any 2025 U.S. Open picks for the final two rounds!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The second round of the 2025 Open Championship concluded on Friday, setting the table for an exciting weekend&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20448,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[71],"tags":[427,99],"class_list":["post-20447","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-golf","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20447","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20447"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20447\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20448"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20447"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20447"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20447"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
