U.S. Open: Five Guys Who Aren't Chalk to Put Your Money On

With the U.S. Open starting on Thursday, many people will be looking at odds to try and make a little money. Of course most of the money will be placed on Jason Day, Jordan Spieth, and Rory McIlroy, but if you’re looking for a couple of guys who aren’t straight chalk, here are five that could net you a profit.

Hideki Matsuyama

Matsuyama has never finished higher than fifth in a major and his best finish at the U.S. Open was a tie for 10th in 2013, but I like him. I like his swing, the way he pauses on his follow through, and I like the fact that he’s so consistent that you can basically write him into the top 20 in almost every event he plays in. This season, Matsuyama has finished outside the top 20 only once, not including missed cuts and withdrawals.
