After the world's top golfers returned en masse to the Tour last week, PGA betting keeps that momentum — but adds an international flavor — by teeing off at this weekend's Zozo Championship. 

After the inaugural Zozo Championship was held in Japan in 2019, last year's event was moved to U.S. soil due to COVID protocols, but PGA Tour odds return to Narashino Country Club for the 2021 event. 

Here are the latest live odds to win the Zozo Championship.

Zozo Championship pre-tournament favorites

After shooting 10-under in the final round of the CJ Cup, and finishing in second place by one stroke at -24, Collin Morikawa is the +600 co-leader on the Zozo Championship odds board. Morikawa is tied with Xander Schauffele, who also had a strong final round (-9) and finished T18 at 18-under.

"Hometown" favorite Hideki Matsuyama — a native of Japan — is third on the odds board at +1,400, although he has struggled in his last two events — placing T59 and T67 — after opening the season with a T6 result at the Fortinet Championship.

Veteran Paul Casey, who is coming off a T25 last weekend, is fourth on the odds board at +1,600 while the Top 5 is rounded out by youngster Will Zalatoris (+1,800), who has two Top-14 finishes and a missed cut through three events this season.

How to bet on PGA Tour odds

The most popular way to bet on golf is by simply picking the winner, which is also referred to as outright. There are plenty of other ways to wager, however. Some of the more popular markets include head-to-head betting, where sportsbooks pair up two golfers and you simply choose who you think will have the lower score over the course of the weekend or for one round only.

There are also 3-way betting markets (choose the best golfer among three choices) and group betting (choose the best golfer amongst a group of players).

Other ways to wager include Top-5/Top-10/Top-20 finish, top golfer by nationality, to make the cut/to not make the cut, and the leader after each round. Then, of course, there's the popular prop bet of whether or not there will be a hole in one at the tournament. 

Where can I bet on the PGA?

You can bet on PGA odds at many online and casino sportsbooks, including PGA outrights, matchup bets, and other golf props. Head over to our best golf betting sites for the top spots to bet on PGA odds in your area.
