Shriners Children's Open 2024 odds, course history and picks to win

The PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup Fall rolls on in Las Vegas for the 2024 Shriners Children’s Open at TPC Summerlin. Back-to-back defending champion Tom Kim — the Korean hasn’t played a Tour event since the FedEx St. Jude Championship in August — highlights the field as he looks for a turkey.

Other players teeing it up on Thursday include Rickie Fowler, Taylor Pendrith, Adam Hadwin, Maverick McNealy, Keith Mitchell and Beau Hossler. Stephan Jaeger, the runner-up at last week’s Black Desert Championship in Utah, is also in the field and looking for his second win of the year.

The winner on Sunday afternoon will earn $1.26 million of the $7 million purse and 500 FedEx Cup points.

Shriners Children’s Open picks to win

Beau Hossler (28/1)

Analysis: Hossler has played some great golf over the last two weeks, losing in a playoff at the Sanderson Farms Championship and tying for 11th at the Black Desert Championship. He’s returning to a venue where he’s seen some success with two top-10 finishes in six starts, including a T-7 performance last season.

It’s time Beau gets win No. 1.

Adam Hadwin (40/1)

Analysis: Hadwin hasn’t played in a Tour event since the BMW Championship in August, but thanks to his course history, this is a spot we have to take the Canadian. Over the last five years, Hadwin has finished inside the top 10 four times including a solo runner-up to Kim in 2023.

Matti Schmid (45/1)

Analysis: Schmid has gotten better and better with every start this fall. He opened with a T-58 showing at the Procore Championship and followed it up with a T-16 finish at the Sanderson Farms Championship. Finally, at last week’s Black Desert, Schmid grabbed solo fifth. In his lone start at the Shriners, Schmid tied for 26th last year.
