Winless pro is our choice

This week on the PGA Tour, golf fans will see a brand new event at the 2024 Black Desert Championshipand we’re picking a winless pro who has shown positive signs of late as our long shot to win. Here’s our long pick, Black Desert Championship odds, betting favorites and everything else you need to know.

Black Desert Championship Odds: Long Shots Betting

For the inaugural Black Desert Championship, Utah’s first PGA Tour event in 60 years, we’re getting Bud Cauley at +5500 odds to win as our long shot.

Cauley is a veteran of the US circuits, having played for more than 10 years on the PGA and Korn Ferry tours. His only win came 10 years ago at the 2014 KFT Hotel Fitness Championship.

With limited status, he played in 14 PGA Tour events this season, making eight cuts and collecting two top 25s. But he has played his best golf of late during FedEx Fall. In the Procore Championship, he finished T32.

Then last week, Cauley almost had his breakthrough moment, finishing the Sanderson Farms Championship T5 at 21 under, just two shots short of making the playoff.

If you place a $10 bet on Cauley to win and he hits, you’ll win $550. Consider placing additional small bets on Cauley to finish top 10 and top 20 for insurance.

Looking for more Black Desert Championship long bets? This week’s honorable mentions are Doug Pin (+5500) and David Skinns (+8000).

Black Desert Championship Odds: Favorites

Many of the betting favorites for the Black Desert Championship played key roles last week, including the man at the top of the list. Keith Mitchell bogeyed the 72nd hole to miss the playoff at the Sanderson Farms Championship, but he opens this week at +1,600 odds.

He is followed by The Power of Seamus (+2200) and last week’s runner-up, Beau Hossler (+2800).
