Where is Jon Rahm's best chance of winning a major in 2020?
| Event | 2020 Venue | Best career result | Odds |
| Masters | Augusta National | 4th (2018) | +1400 |

Rahm missed the cut at two of the four majors in 2018, but he finished fourth or T-4 at each of the other two. He also missed the cut at last season's PGA Championship in between a T-9 finish at the Masters and a T-3 at the U.S. Open. His best odds in 2020 come at the Masters, which is the only major where he has never missed a cut.
Will Jon Rahm win a major in 2020?
Among the golfers in the top 10 of the Official World Golf Ranking Rahm is one of the ones I like the most for the generic major bet. His best and worst sides can be difficult to predict, and his odds aren't attractive enough at any of the individual events.
