The 2024 Barracuda Championship is set to go on from Tahoe Mountain Club’s Old Greenwood.
Truckee California is the home of the event that has gone on since 1999.
It is not considered the Reno-Tahoe Open, and goes on the same time as the Open Championship.
The 71 course is nearly 7,500 yards.
The prize fund for this event is $4M.
Vaughn Taylor has the course record for the event at -21.
Ashkay Bhatia won the event last season.
Let’s take a look at the Barracuda Championship Odds, Top 3 and our picks to win.
Writer’s Picks for the 2024 Barracuda Championship
Keith Mitchell +1600
The 32-year old from Chattanooga comes into the event 14th in driving distance, as he is hitting nearly 310 yards per attempt.
Mitchell is 13th in greens in regulation, at 71.11.
This season he has not won an event, but finished in the Top 10 three times.
He also has 9 top 25 finishes.
Taylor Pendrith +2200
Pendrith comes into the event listed 32 in the FedEx Cup standings, and 59th in the world.
The Canadian is coming off a 72nd place finish in Detroit at the end of June.
Before that he went for 16th at the US Open and 23rd at the Travelers Championship.
Pendrith is 14th in driving distance, with 309.7, while 25th in scoring average at 70.4.
He comes into the event looking for his 2nd win of the season.
He is also seeking his 5th Top 10 finish of the season, and 10th time inside the Top 25.
Michael Thorbjornsen +2500
The 22 year old from Cleveland Ohio is ranked 121st in the world.
He is coming into the event fresh off missing the cut in Kentucky at the ISCO Championship.
Before that, he went to the John Deere Classic, and was -24, which was tied for second.
He is a force at events like this, and we expect him to be right in the middle of the leaderboard when the final day comes.
He is listed at +2500 to win this event, which would be his first of the season, and second in the Top 10.
Others in Consideration:
- Chan Kim +2500
- Sam Stevens +2800
- Patrick Rodgers +2800
- Nick Dunlap +3000
- Kevin Yu +3300
- Beau Hossler +3500
- Rico Hoey +3500
- Mac Meissner +3500
- Mark Hubbard +3500
Michael Thorbjornsen +2500
When push comes to shove, we are going to start our betting for this event with Keith Mitchell, the favorite.
We feel he is the best golfer in this event, and prepared to take on the challenges of the course.
We like Mitchell, with his betting odds listed at +1600.
Our second bet is Patrick Rodgers +2800.
The veteran golfer should be able to get around the course with little to no issues, and we really think he is going to be able to compete.
Listing him at +2800 is a great value for those that place a bet with him.
