It’s the first full-field event of the year on the PGA Tour and the 2024 Sony Open in Hawaii is looking like it will produce some brilliant golfing action. With five of the world’s top 20 fronting up for this event, and several players eager to jostle for contention in the major events later in the calendar, fans can expect plenty of great betting across the next four days.
Ludvig Aberg heads to Hawaii as the man to beat, but he’ll have some stiff competition. Can Si Woo Kim surprise the bookies and defend his title? Or will Will Zalatoris make 2024 his year by starting strong with a title? We break down all the latest betting odds from bookmaker William Hill to answer these questions and outline the best bets to make on the 2024 Sony Open in Hawaii this week.

Looking at the outright betting odds from bookmaker William Hill, there’s one favourite to win and it isn’t the defending champion. Ludvig Aberg leads the odds at 17.00, closely followed by both Matt Fitzpatrick and Tyrell Hatton at 19.00. Russell Henley and Brian Harman then round out the top five betting favourites on 21.00, with defending champion Si Woo Kim returning a hefty 36.00 in Hawaii this week.
Odds to finish in the top five follow a similar pattern, with Aberg at 3.75 through to Harman on 5.50, who sits slightly behind Henman’s 5.00.

While this is a well balanced field, we see two excellent bets to make ahead of the first tee on Thursday. Firstly, Tyrell Hatton has shown some strong form and consistency, making three impressive finishes of T2, T11 and T14 in his last four tournaments. The Englishman currently sits 12th in the PGA rankings for good reason and is a strong bet to continue his healthy results by claiming his seventh title in Hawaii.
For those interested in a slightly higher return, we recommend backing Will Zalatoris to storm back into the conversation this weekend. The 27-year-old last competed in a full year on the PGA Tour in 2022 but is looking to make a comeback in 2024. With three runner-up finishes in Majors, plus a title on his last full season, it’s hard to overlook Zalatoris at a payout of 51.00 this week.
