Collin Morikawa U.S. Open 2023 Odds, History & Prediction (Inconsistency, Injury Issues Mean Temper Expectations)

One of the most prestigious events in golf, the U.S. Open has the ability to launch any golfer's career to new heights. Collin Morikawa is one of the many competitors who's never won the tournament before, but he hopes to change that with this year's event being played in his home state of California. 

Here's everything you need to know about Collin Morikawa's U.S. Open odds and history heading into the 2023 event.

Collin Morikawa U.S. Open Prediction 2023

Although his first two U.S. Open showings left something to be desired, Collin Morikawa has turned things around as of late. He placed T4 and T5 in 2021 and 2022, respectively, while finishing four strokes back of first place on both occasions.

Morikawa has experienced some highs and lows throughout the 2023 PGA season. On one hand, he has four top-10 showings in 17 events and was even the runner-up at the Sentry Tournament of Champions. On the other hand, he's missed the cut twice in his last five events and was most recently forced to withdraw from the Memorial Tournament earlier this month due to back spasms.

While he's played extremely well at the U.S. Open over the last two years, Morikawa's back issues do raise some concerns. That's why I'm erring on the side of caution by backing a top-20 performance at +125 odds. Morikawa has the potential to finish much higher than that, but his injury history and inconsistency this season make picking a safer bet the smarter choice.
