DP World Tour - Soudal Open

May 23, 2024


The Soudal Open is approaching soon on Thursday, May 23 and offers a prize purse of $2,500,000. Golfers will take their talents to the Rinkven International Golf & Country Club in Belgium. Adrian Otaegui is the favorite here with a moneyline at +1825.

Soudal Open Betting Preview

Golfers in the DP World Tour will compete in Europe for the first time this season with the 2024 Soudal Open. This event has roots dating back to the early 1900's, with a recent iteration of this event coming back to life prominently in 2018 when it was known as the Belgian Knockout.

After two years of this event ending in 2019, it is back to traditional stroke play and has been an entertaining event to watch. The course is fairly flat, has some holes that are moderately lined with trees, and some minor hazards to worry about. Nonetheless, it is a simple course for golfers with plenty of experience.

The course is nearly 7,000 yards and is a Par 71. Many golfers should expect to reach the high teens in their score.

Golfers That Could Win

Tons of quality talent will be available in the field and all competing on an appealing course to drive up the score. Below are a few names worth checking out.

Johannes Veerman +4400

Veerman could be a steak here at his price point. He is coming off an eighth place finish at the Volvo China Open and was T2 a few weeks back at the Hero Indian Open. He clearly has some solid form heading into this event and is competing in a slightly weaker field.

Joel Girrbach +5600

Girrbach has landed his last five cuts on the DP World Tour and was appealing back at the Volvo China Open with a T3 finish a few weeks back. He is a threat with his third place ranking in driving accuracy and 11th in strokes gained approach, which is a perfect opportunity here for him.

Matthias Schwab +6400

Schwab came in eighth at the Volvo China Open and dominated with his diving accuracy (ranked third), greens in regulation (third), led in scrambling, and was strong with strokes gained approach (fifth). His consistency in that event should show some in this one.

Odds, Series Trends and Free Pick

MyBookie has the odds ready for the 2024 Soudal Open, with Adrian Otaegui. He makes a great case for victory, but there is another golfer to consider.

Thomas Pieters is returning home and is considered a favorite to win here. He is coming off a couple of top 10 finishes in LIV Golf over his last three starts before making the jump back here. Being in front of his home crowd and back in familiar territory should give him a slight edge.

 

Final Pick: Thomas Pieters +2000
