2020 Memorial Tournament: SportsLine has surprising picks and predictions
The revamped PGA Tour schedule continues on Thursday, July 16, when the 2020 Memorial Tournament tees off from Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio. We simulated this tournament 10,000 times, and there are some MAJOR surprises.Â
Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, was all over long shot winner Collin Morikawa last week at the Workday Charity Open. It identified him as a top contender from the start despite his long odds and McClure recommended an outright bet on him to win at 33-1. The model also called Bryson DeChambeau taking the Rocket Mortgage Classic. Additionally, it has nailed two of the last three majors entering the weekend.
The model predicted Gary Woodland's first career major championship at the U.S. Open even though he wasn't the favorite entering the weekend. The result: Woodland held off a late charge from Brooks Koepka and won by three strokes. The model also called Koepka's historic victory at the 2019 PGA Championship, predicting he'd hold his lead in the home stretch. In all, the advanced computer model has nailed a whopping six majors entering the weekend.
And already this season, the model called Justin Thomas (15-2) winning the CJ Cup, Rory McIlroy (11-2) taking down the WGC-HSBC Champions and Viktor Hovland (11-1) earning his first career PGA Tour victory at the Puerto Rico Open. Using the model for his best bets, McClure returned a whopping +788 during the 2020 Charles Schwab Challenge, including nailing top-five bets on Xander Schauffele at 13-2 and Collin Morikawa at 9-1.Â
The model was also extremely high on 30-1 long shot winner Webb Simpson at the RBC Heritage. The model had him in the top five from the start and McClure's best bets included Simpson winning outright. Those who followed that advice saw a whopping +3000 return! Anyone who has followed it has seen MASSIVE returns.Â
One major surprise the model is calling for at the Memorial: Bryson DeChambeau, the Vegas favorite at 9-1, stumbles big-time and barely cracks the top five! Another surprise: Hideki Matsuyama, a monster long shot at 25-1, makes a strong run at the title. He's a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday.
Also, the model is targeting FIVE OTHER golfers with odds of 20-1 or higher, including a MASSIVE long shot higher than 40-1. Anyone who backs this underdog could hit it BIG.
So who wins the 2020 Memorial Tournament? And which surprising underdog shocks the golf world? ... Join SportsLine right now to see who you can bank on to win the Memorial, and see which long shots make a run at the title, all from the model that's nailed six golf majors and was high on Collin Morikawa last week!
