The 2024 Mayakoba is set to take place on Friday, February 2 at the El Camaleón Golf Course in Mexico. The biggest headline is that Job Rahm is getting his first start with LIV and at Mayakoba. Rahm is the current moneyline favorite to win at +450.

The Mayakoba will take place at the El Camaleón Golf Course, which is a Par-72 that spans across 7,024 yards. As you can see, it is not a fairly long course and golfers have typically done well on shorter courses at this event.

Defending champion Charles Howell III showed great success with his ability to hit shots when they mattered most and had exceptionally strong scrambling averages. If golfers can have a great day of hitting straight shots and approaching the green, as well as making birdies, this should be an appealing three days.

Many golfers present a strong argument for victory, particularly considering the absence of prior tournament performances to reference. Here are some players who might shine in the top 10 or even clinch the overall win.

Tyrell Hatton +1400

Hatton, having had a remarkably steady 2023 season on both the PGA and DP World Tours with six top five finishes and 16 top 20 finishes in 26 global appearances, will make his debut at LIV this week. Despite his T31 finish in Dubai last time, he currently holds the second position on the board for a good reason.

He last ranked 78^th in the DP World Tour rankings, but has now shifted his position to join LIV and be on Rahm’s team. Can he follow a close lead behind his teammate?

Talor Gooch +1800

Gooch won three times in LIV events last season and will be another key competitor to watch here. These included Adelaide, Singapore, and Besminister, with the first two on the list being back to back wins. Overall, he has plenty of quality experience in these events and his resume matches up well with the field.

The 2024 Mayakoba offers diverse betting choices, featuring Jon Rahm as the favorite with +450 odds on MyBookie. Several golfers provide compelling reasons for consideration, and a standout contender presents a convincing case.

Rahm is the reigning Masters champion who secured victory four times in 2023, achieving ninth place or better in three DP World Tour events as well. Regarded as the world's top golfer for an extended period, he currently holds the third position in rankings.

This will be his first move in LIV and bettors are already liking what he has to offer. He might have the most pressure on him to perform, especially with a massive contract he signed. However, his resume shows that he can handle this situation.
