Golf major championship predictions 2024: Scottie Scheffler takes Masters, Viktor Hovland breaks through

Predicting who comes out on top at golf's biggest events in 2024

Predicting major championship winners at any point can be a fool's errand. It's a difficult task on Sunday morning before final rounds begin let alone at the start of tournament week. Forget attempting to do so months in advance. So with three months until the first major of 2024, we recognize that is completely foolish to try and predict who will win the four major championships ... which is exactly why we're going to attempt it! 

Perhaps we will look back on this in seven months and laugh at the absurdity of our choices. Perhaps we look back on it and consider our prognostication tremendous. Regardless of the outcome, it's always fun and interesting to discuss the major championships. Who's going to win them? How will they play out? 

In light of what has happened with regular-season golf and the PGA Tour-LIV Golf scuffle over the last two years, the majors have only accumulated more importance and greater stature within the game. We cannot discuss them too much, and today, we're going to talk about why the following players are (probably) going to collect these four trophies over the next half year.
