There are a variety of ways for golf fans to bet on the 2024 BMW Championship, which gets underway from Castle Pines Golf Club in Colorado on Thursday, Aug. 22. You can pick the winner of the overall tournament, or you can take a deep dive into the PGA Tour props market.

Play gets underway on Thursday at 9:25 a.m. ET, so now is the time to lock in your PGA picks.
Scottie Scheffler's over/under for total strokes in Round 1 is 68.5. Will Scheffler cash PGA prop bets, or will he fall short and shoot 69 or higher in Thursday's opening round?

With sites like DraftKings, FanDuel, PrizePicks, Underdog Fantasy, Sleeper Fantasy, and more offering tons of games surrounding BMW Championship PGA props, you'll want to check out the top 2024 BMW Championship props and PGA prop predictions from SportsLine's Mike McClure.
McClure built SportsLine's proprietary golf model, which has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact, the model is up more than $9,500 on its best bets since June 2020, nailing tournament after tournament.
This same model has also nailed a whopping 13 majors entering the weekend, including the 2024 Masters, its third Masters in a row, and this year's PGA Championship and U.S. Open. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.
Now, McClure has focused his attention on Round 1 of the 2024 BMW Championship and locked in his best bets for DraftKings Pick6. You can only see them here.
Top 2024 BMW Championship picks for Round 1
McClure is backing Rory McIlroy to finish with Under 4.5 birdies in Round 1. McIlroy has won the FedEx Cup three times in his career, the most of any player on the PGA Tour. However, McIlroy has struggled mightily in recent weeks, finishing T-68 or worse in his last two starts on the PGA Tour.
The 35-year-old enters this week's event averaging 4.03 birdies per round, which ranks 43rd on the PGA Tour. He's ranked 83rd in driving accuracy and 105th in greens in regulation percentage (65.66%), which doesn't bode well for his chances of going low at a course like Castle Pines. Those inconsistencies are a big reason why McClure expects he'll finish the four or fewer birdies in Round 1. See McClure's other BMW Championship picks right here.
