Houston Open 2024 Golf Betting Preview
Time to tee it up in Texas for a pair of PGA Tour events ahead of The Masters. The Houston Open 2024 tournament drew 10 of the top 50 players in the world, and Memorial Park is the host course. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler (+270) is a huge favorite to win his third straight tournament after capturing the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players Championship against a strong field of top golfers.
