We simulated the 2018 Valero Texas Open 10,000 times and came up with a very surprising leaderboard. SportsLine's prediction model, which was built by DFS pro Mike McClure, nailed the 2018 Masters, calling the career-defining victory for Patrick Reed entering the weekend. It was also all over Jordan Spieth at the 2017 British Open from the start and called the 24-year-old's third major victory.
One huge surprise the model is calling for at the Valero Texas Open this week: Zach Johnson, a 30/1 long shot, makes a serious run at the title. He's a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. Another surprise, Ryan Moore, who Vegas views as a legitimate contender, doesn't sniff the Top 12. Avoid him.
Also, the model says five additional golfers with odds of 25/1 or longer will make a deep run at the Valero Texas Open title. Anyone who bets on these underdogs could hit it big... Join SportsLine here to see who you can bank on to win the Valero Texas Open and see which long shots make a run at the title, all from the model that's nailed four of the last five majors heading into the weekend.
