Australian Open golf outright odds: Smith looking for Melbourne magic

The Australian Open gets underway this week, and once again a star-studded field will battle it out over four days in Melbourne.

A number of top Australian players have returned home to compete at the Kingston Health & Victoria Golf Club, with Cameron Smith among the field.

It looks set to be an exciting tournament, so let’s take a look at the latest outright odds for the Australian Open.

Cameron Smith

Smith has an impressive CV to say the least, with the Open Championship and Players Championship, the highlights of his career so far.

The Queenslander also has three Australian PGA titles to his name, but so far, the Australian Open has eluded him.

He will be desperate to put that right this week and is in good form having finished second at the Australian PGA, which finished on Sunday.

Smith finished on -12, two shots behind winner Elvis Smylie and he's 7.50 to win that elusive Australian Open title this year.

Marc Leishman

Leishman, available at 11.00 in the outright market, also looks to be in good touch after finishing Tied for Third at the Australian PGA Championship.

He finished on -11 and will be looking to go one step further by winning the Australian Open.

Leishman has had a good 2024 when finishing in the top four at three LIV Golf events. His best finish was Tied for second at LIV Singapore.

With six US PGA Tour wins to his name, Leishman knows how to get the job done and will be a big threat this week.

Cameron Davis

Davis has had some strong finishes in 2024 and is expected to be in the mix at the Australian Open.

Finishing T12 at the Masters, would be his highlight, while he also came in T5 at the BMW Championship.

Davis won the Rocket Mortgage Classic and will be out to do the same this week, for which he is 13.00 to achieve.

He showed he is in good touch when finishing T6 at the Australian PGA Championship at the weekend with a score of -9.

Joaquin Niemann

Niemann is back to defend his Australian Open title following a memorable play-off win in the 2023 event and he's 5.50 to retain the title.

He has been in great form in 2024, winning two LIV Golf events at Jeddah and Mayakoba, while he finished T9 at the Olympics.

Niemann has been ranked as high as No.15 in the world and will be gunning to win his second Australian Open this week.

Jordan Smith

The Englishman has shown his quality in 2024 when finishing runner-up at the BMW Championship in Germany.

He also finished T7 at the Irish Open and fourth at the Dubai Invitational.

Smith warmed up for the Australian Open, which he is 17.00 to win, by finishing T21 at the Australian PGA Championship, with a score of -6.
