US Open 2023 Each-Way Betting Tips: Three dark horses to consider in LA

Los Angeles Country Club plays host to the 2023 US Open this week.

Here at BettingOdds, our golf tipster Jamie Broadhurst has already provided a comprehensive US Open Betting Preview on the third major of the year, complete with his five best bets for glory in LA.

We've supplemented this with a look at three dark horses that are well worth considering at the George Thomas-designed course, in the hope that the US Open fires out another big-money winner, as was the case in 2019 when 80/1 shot Gary Woodland triumphed - the same price as Webb Simpson in 2012 and Graeme McDowell in 2010.

Adam Scott

We'll tee-off with Aussie Adam Scott who jets over to the West coast on the back off a hugely encouraging pocket of form.

Scott has carded three top-10 finishes in his last four tournaments, securing T5 at the Wells Fargo Championship, T8 at the AT&T Byron Nelson, and T9 last time out at The Memorial Tournament.

The former Masters champion has yet to win the US Open, but has claimed three Top-10 finishes at the major, the most recent of which was T7 in 2019.

Consistency has been key for the 42-year-old who has remarkably made 18 consecutive cuts stretching back over a year. If he can build on a really positive last six weeks, then he could make a mockery of his hefty 70/1 price.

Mito Pereira

On first glance this is a potentially strange pick given that he's yet to make the cut in two US Open appearances, however, there's a lot to like about Mito Pereira, who can be backed at 90/1 with BoyleSports.

Pereira has been on great form this year over on the LIV Tour, where he's registered three Top-5s in his last five appearances, which includes third at the LIV Golf Invitational DC a couple of weeks ago.

Also this year, he can draw on the experience of 43rd at the Masters and 18th at last month's PGA Championship. 

Pereira may, perhaps, feel like he should already have a major under his belt, having led the 2021 PGA Championship heading into the final hole. Unfortunately, he had somewhat of a stinker on the 18th and ended up third.

Definitely one to watch this week.

Keegan Bradley

Our third and final pick is Keegan Bradley, who is out at the three-figure price of 100/1 with bet365.

The former major winner has been solid, not spectacular, over the last few months in making the cut in five consecutive tournaments.

This includes T23 at the Masters and T29 at the PGA Championship, while he came home in T7 at the US Open in 2022.

Earlier this year the 37-year-old finished 2nd at the Farmers Insurance and T10 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

Admittedly, it's difficult to see Bradley being bang in the mix for glory, but I could see him mount a charge for the places.
