How to read the 2027 board when it opens

A golf outright price is a chance written as a payout. +1000 implies 9.1%, +2500 implies 3.8% and +5000 implies 2.0%. Add up every price on a full board and the total runs past 100%; the excess is the sportsbook’s margin.

A futures bet on a major is worth making only when you rate the player’s chance higher than the price does. Rai is the case in point for why the board is hard to read eight months out: he finished 48th at the Masters in April 2026 and won the PGA Championship five weeks later. The best sports betting sites post these markets at different times and at different prices, so compare more than one before you bet.

Placement markets carried the 2026 result for the favorites. McIlroy and Schauffele did not contend for the win but both finished inside the top 10, and Thomas and Åberg finished inside the top five. Our golf betting guide explains each-way and top-finish terms, and the PGA Championship betting guide covers the statistics worth checking before the week.

Eight of the last ten were decided by two shots or fewer, and Thomas beat Will Zalatoris in a playoff in 2022. Koepka won three of the ten and Thomas two. The winning score ran from 5 under to 21 under, and the course sets that number.
