The inaugural season of the LIV Golf series will continue this week as 48 players descend upon The International Golf Club near Boston for the fourth of eight events on the LIV Golf schedule. This week's event will be the LIV tour's third stop in the United States, which is expected to host five of the league's eight events.

According to the latest 2022 LIV Golf Boston odds, newcomer Cameron Smith is going off as the 11-2 favorite, with Dustin Johnson (6-1), Joaquin Niemann (9-1) and Talor Gooch (16-1) next in line. Before locking in your 2022 LIV Golf Boston picks, be sure to see the predictions and best bets from golf insider Patrick McDonald.

After spending time at FanSided and NBC Sports EDGE, McDonald joined CBS Sports as a golf writer in the spring of 2022. Now covering the sport from a broader perspective, McDonald still likes to dip his toes into the betting pools on a weekly basis on the PGA Tour. 

He takes a measured approach to his outright selections and is up nearly 75 units in 2022 having hit Cameron Smith (+2200) at the Tournament of Champions, Hudson Swafford (+25000) at the American Express, Joaquin Niemann (+7000) at the Genesis Invitational and Justin Thomas (+6600) live at the PGA Championship.

Now, McDonald has studied the 2022 LIV Golf Boston field and locked in his best bets, top sleepers and favorites to avoid. 

We can tell you that McDonald is fading Cameron Smith, who's listed as the favorite at 11-2. "I am surprised Smith is this short given the question marks surrounding his hip discomfort," McDonald told SportsLine. "Needing to withdraw from the BMW Championship and looking uncomfortable at the Tour Championship, I would have made Johnson the favorite this week. The Players Championship winner and Champion Golfer of the Year is a prolific champion and can win on any given week but given the variance we have seen in LIV thus far, +550 is far too steep to warrant any investment."

McDonald also has locked in a slew of other prop bets for the 2022 LIV Golf Boston event, including an EPIC long shot listed higher than 30-1 who could win it all! You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before locking in any picks of your own.
