The next DP World Tour event is the Italian Open, coming up on Thursday, June 27, at the Adriatic Golf Club Cervia. The purse for this event comes in at $3,250,000, so many golfers will want a slice. Patrick Reed is the favorite to succeed, with a moneyline at +1175.
The 2024 Italian Open is being played in Milano Marittima, Italy, and is now the 81st installment of this event. This will be the first time it is being played at Adriatic Golf Club Cervia.
The course is a Par 70 spanning just shy of 7,000 yards. There are three courses and 27 holes, but the event will be played on 18 of those holes and likely on just two courses.
There is not much information about this venue, and it will likely be challenging to gauge which golfers can handle this atmosphere until after the first day. The top golfers available here are appealing options to consider. However, some have great potential and positive momentum that should be considered.
Plenty of golfers stand out in the field, with some having excellent momentum or having done well at events like this in the past. Check out which ones are shining the most heading into Thursday.
Migliozzi recently won the latest DP World Tour event, the Dutch Open. He claimed victory in a three-way playoff over Joe Dean and Marcus Kinhult.
This marks his fourth DP World Title, which is excellent momentum before this event. Can he sustain this level of success?
Manassero is coming off a seventh-place finish at the Dutch Open. He also won the Jonsson Workwear Open in March earlier this year.
The market has him at appealing odds for a golfer back near his home venue. He has also missed a handful of cuts this season, sometimes making him a bit volatile.
MyBookie offers the DP World Tour betting odds for the Italian Open, with Patrick Reed coming in as the market favorite. Reed is arguably the favorite for a number of reasons and enters this event with arguably a weaker field than usual.
Tom McKibbin is currently ranked as the 36th-best golfer in the DP World Tour rankings. He has solid momentum coming into this event and threatens the field.
He is coming off a sixth-place finish at the Dutch Oepn, where he finished just two strokes behind. He also has three top-10 finishes in his last five starts. Look for him to make a great attempt at victory.
