The Long Shots crew is back with a special early look at the 2026 U.S. Open from Shinnecock Hills. Matt Brown, Wes Reynolds, and Kelley Bydlon break down the opening odds board, Scottie Scheffler's pursuit of the career Grand Slam, and how the challenging setup at Shinnecock could impact betting strategy.

The guys discuss whether Scheffler's recent "slump" is creating value, analyze the biggest contenders, including Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Xander Schauffele, Bryson DeChambeau, and Tommy Fleetwood, and examine injury concerns surrounding Brooks Koepka, Collin Morikawa, and Jake Knapp.

Plus, they dive into course conditions, weather forecasts, wind projections, key statistical categories, outright betting strategies, placement markets, and how to build a winning betting card for one of golf's toughest tests.

If you're betting the U.S. Open, this episode provides valuable insight into the field, course setup, and early wagering opportunities before the tournament begins.
