Scottie Scheffler

How much money would you have made at the top online sites, golf betting on World No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler to win each time he plays?

Scheffler enters the FedEx Cup Playoffs with a nearly insurmountable points lead over Rory McIlroy. The three-event playoff begins with the St. Jude Championship on August 7 at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee. The BWM Championship follows the following week at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Maryland. The season concludes with the Tour Championship at Atlanta's East Lake starting August 21.

Scheffler rolls into those final three PGA Tour events of the season coming off a dominant victory in The Open Championship. He began play in that event at average odds of +515, according to OddsJam. His official Thursday tee-time price was +550 at BetMGM.

Bettors backing him to win each time out since the start of the 2021-22 PGA Tour season would have turned a nifty profit.

Here's a look at the numbers. 

If you had wagered $100 on Scheffler to win before each of his last 83 PGA Tour starts (including the 2024 Olympics) going back to the start of the 2021-22 season, you would be up $5,455.

Scheffler Delivers Green On The Greens

That presents a 65.72% return on the $8,300 total wagered on top sports betting apps during that period. A number boosted by Scheffler's wins this year at Royal Portrush, at The Memorial in June and the Byron Nelson in May.

Scheffler has won 17 tournaments, 4 majors, the PGA Tour Championship, and an Olympic gold medal during his remarkable 4-year run. Those event victories include two at Augusta National in the Masters, a pair of wins in the THE PLAYERS Championship, a gold-medal winning run at Le Golf National, and his victory in the 2025 PGA Championship. THE PLAYERS is considered pro golf’s unofficial fifth major. Scheffler's dominant run in 2024 helped him secure the PGA Tour season points championship. 

Almost as impressive, Scheffler has finished second or tied for second 9 times. And he’s finished in the Top 10 in 56 of his 83 events, or 67.4% of the time. 

Here is a breakdown of Scheffler’s PGA Tour event victories and his Olympic gold, with the date, tournament, and his odds to win before Round 1.

How Does Backing Scheffler Compare To Other Investments

Let’s examine the return from backing Scheffler each week he played from October 11, 2021 through the 2025 Open Championship weighed against the return on many of the major stock indexes, in addition to the price of gold, silver and Bitcoin during that span. 

October 11, 2021 was the first trading day after Scheffler missed the cut in the 2021 Shriners Children's Open. And the close of trading on Wall Street at 4 p.m. ET on Friday (July 18) was the last full trading day in our cycle. 

Here is a breakdown of where those major market indicators stood at the start of the 2021-22 PGA Tour season, where they stood at the close on the last trading day of the Open Championship, and the percentage of your potential return compared to that of backing Scheffler over the same period.

Those backing Scheffler instead of the all three major market indexes during this run would have scored a larger return on their investment. But gold, silver and Bitcoin have beaten Scheffler in terms of monetary value.

But no one gets a green jacket for buying silver.

Scheffler’s numbers reflect his dominance on the course. He’s unflappable no matter the situation – as reflected by his performance at Valhalla Golf Club after he was arrested ahead of the 2024 PGA Championship. 

Scheffler rolled through the PGA Championship field this year at Quail Hollow, dominating on Sunday with a 65 and winning the event by 5 shots at 11-under. His trumph at Royal Portrush equally impressive.

He makes it look easy. Even though we know it isn’t. 

Even if betting on him is.
