Scheffler to Retain the Crown in Our Hero World Challenge Prediction

The top golfers in the world meet in The Bahamas for the 2024 Hero World Challenge, hosted by the great Tiger Woods. No FedEx Cup points are up for grabs, but this unofficial event on the PGA Tour promises to be special.

Betting Picks:

Scottie Scheffler to Win – 23/10

Scheffler vs Thomas H2H – Scheffler to Win – 7/20

Will Scheffler Retain the Title at Albany Golf Course?

The 2024 Hero World Challenge will see the top 20 stars do battle at Albany Golf Course in New Providence, The Bahamas, this week. The official 2024 PGA Tour schedule has come to an end, but this is an exciting way to start the end-of-season wrap-up.

Scottie Scheffler had a year to remember, racking up the most wins and FedEx Cup points. It was a fruitful season for the New Jersey-born ace, as he also topped the charts for prize money.

Scheffler picked up an impressive six wins, including the Players Championship and the Masters Tournament. The 28-year-old heads to The Bahamas as the bookmakers’ favourite at 23/10.

Scheffler may be the outright favourite, but he will no doubt face fierce competition at Albany. The likes of Justin Thomas (10/1), Ludvig Aberg (11/1), and Patrick Cantlay (12/1) are worth keeping an eye on.

Past Hero World Challenge Winners

The Hero World Challenge is a thrilling tournament and a fitting way to start winding down the season. Established in 2000, we have seen several notable players take home the trophy.

Tiger Woods, the current tournament host, has picked up the most Hero World Challenge wins, securing five gold medals from 2001 to 2011. Graeme McDowell and Viktor Hovland are both two-time winners.

Last year, Scheffler won the tournament, beating Sepp Straka to the line by 3 strokes. The American is hoping to retain the trophy at Albany in 2024.

Hero World Challenge Betting Tips & Predictions

It has been a remarkable season for Scheffler, and the FedEx Cup top points scorer is the man to beat in The Bahamas. The price may be short, but we cannot see past Scheffler at 23/10.

Golf fans are intrigued to see the battle between Scheffler and Thomas. Scheffler has been the main man this season, but Thomas heads to Albany as the second favourite. You can get 7/20 for Scheffler to get the better of Thomas in the head-to-head battle.

Betting Picks:

Scottie Scheffler to Win – 23/10
Scheffler vs Thomas H2H – Scheffler to Win – 7/20
