2024 Houston Open one and done picks, field, top sleepers, rankings: PGA Tour predictions, golf betting advice

Mike McClure locked in his expert PGA one and done golf picks, projected leaderboard, and sleepers for Texas Children's Houston Open 2024 at Memorial Park Golf Course in Houston

· CBS Sports

The PGA Tour wrapped up its Florida swing last week, now heads to Texas for the 2024 Texas Children's Houston Open at Memorial Park Golf Course in Houston. The 2024 Texas Children's Houston Open field is headlined by world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who is making his first appearance following back-to-back wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players Championship. Scheffler enters as the 14-5 betting favorite in the latest 2024 Texas Children's Houston Open odds. Other top contenders in the field include Wyndham Clark (14-1), Tony Finau (18-1), Will Zalatoris (18-1), Sahith Theegala (20-1), Jason Day (28-1), and Si Woo Kim (35-1). The 2024 Texas Children's Houston Open purse is $9.1 million and the winner's share is listed at $1.638 million. 

As the heavy betting favorite, Scheffler will likely be a popular one and done pick for this week for the Houston Open. With this not being a signature event, would it still make sense to use Scheffler in One and Done pools? Or should you target another top contender like Clark, Zalatoris, or Theegala? Before locking in your 2024 Texas Children's Houston Open one and done picks, you need to see what SportsLine DFS pro and PGA expert Mike McClure has to say

The One and Done format is growing in popularity. It has several noticeable similarities to NFL Survivor pools, with the main difference being entries are not eliminated with a bad week. Players pick one golfer per week and earn points based on their selected golfer's prize money for that tournament. Golfers can only be used once per season, and the point format makes nailing majors, signature events, and big money tournaments critical.

McClure is a DFS legend with over $2 million in career winnings, and he's been red-hot on his PGA picks dating back to the PGA Tour restart in June of 2020. McClure uses his proprietary simulation model to analyze the field and crush his golf picks.

McClure has been on fire with his One and Done picks in 2024. At The American Express he backed Justin Thomas, who finished in third place and took home $635,600. At the Genesis Invitational, McClure tabbed Patrick Cantlay, who finished in fourth place at the signature event, as his top OAD pick. At the Cognizant Classic, McClure's top one and done pick, Min Woo Lee, finished in a tie for second place. Finally, at the Arnold Palmer Invitation, another signature event, McClure recommended using Scottie Scheffler and Will Zalatoris. The Result: Scheffler won the event by five strokes, and Zalatoris finished in fourth place.

His hot steak continued at the Players Championship, where McClure again recommended using Scheffler (if was still available) and Xander Schauffele. Both players were in contention until the end, with Scheffler coming out with the win and Schauffele finishing in second place. Then, at last week's Valspar Championship, McClure recommended using Cameron Young, who finished in second place, in OAD pools.

Now, McClure has dialed in on the Texas Children's Houston Open golf tournament and just locked in his one and done picks and PGA predictions. They are a must-see for any player looking for an edge in their One and Done pool. You can only see McClure's Texas Children's Houston Open 2024 one and done picks at SportsLine.

Top 2024 Houston One and Done picks

One of McClure's favorite one and done plays this week for the Houston Open is Wyndham Clark. The 30-year-old PGA Tour veteran has three career outright wins, including his triumph at the 2023 U.S. Open. Clark also notched a win at this year's AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and finished in second place at The Players and the Arnold Palmer Invitational. 

The Denver, Colo. native has climbed to No. 4 in the Official World Golf Ranking and has become a threat to win any tournament he enters. Clark enters this week ranked third on the PGA Tour in total strokes gained (1.869), eighth in strokes gained tee-to-green (1.214), 12th in strokes gained putting (0.656), and 17th in strokes gained on approach (0.615). With the Houston Open field being wide open, McClure expects Clark to be in contention until the end. You can see who else to back at SportsLine.
