Defending champion Jon Rahm, Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth headline a strong field this week when the PGA Tour tees off Thursday in the 2021 Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village. 

Rahm is the 10-1 favorite in the latest 2021 Memorial Tournament odds from William Hill Sportsbook, followed by McIlroy and Spieth at 16-1.

Before you lock in your 2021 Memorial Tournament picks or bet this tournament, you MUST see what SportsLine analyst Rick Gehman has to say, given his uncanny track record of success.

With his data-driven approach to betting golf, Gehman routinely crushes sportsbooks. Since the calendar turned to 2020, Gehman's bets have cashed more than $1,500 for $100 players! 

The golf expert has picked 12 outright winners in the past 18 months and three this season, including Viktor Hovland at 25-1 at the Mayakoba Golf Classic and Daniel Berger at 20-1 at Pebble Beach! He JUST missed on nailing the winner in consecutive February events, with Hovland and Tony Finau finishing as runners-up on bets that would have cashed more than $1,900 on their own.

Gehman's biggest success this season has come on matchup plays, and he has had three straight winning weeks while going 8-1 on these picks! At last week's Charles Schwab Challenge, he also hit a +320 ticket on Brian Harman to finish in the top 10! 

At the PGA Championship, he hit all three of his matchup plays for a second straight week, with Shane Lowry routing Brendon Todd, Stewart Cink crushing Charl Schwartzel and Harman edging Cameron Tringale.    

Gehman has been on a roll all year! At Pebble Beach, Gehman made a profit of $400 thanks to backing Berger. He cashed top-10 bets on Hovland and Will Zalatoris at Torrey Pines. At The American Express, his bets brought in nearly $600 when he hit a top-five wager on Patrick Cantlay and top-10s on Abraham Ancer and Francesco Molinari. Anyone who followed Gehman's advice cashed in HUGE!

Now Gehman, whose models have produced three outright winners this season, has analyzed the latest 2021 Memorial Tournament odds from William Hill Sportsbook and revealed his picks to win.

We can tell you Gehman is backing Collin Morikawa (-110) to win a matchup with world No. 2 Justin Thomas (-110). Both are great players, but Morikawa is one of the best ball-strikers on tour, while Thomas has been struggling on his approach game. That aspect can take time to fix, and it will be a critical component this week at Muirfield, so the golf expert is going with the young gun. 

Gehman also has isolated two players to win, including a long shot who is listed at more than 30-1! This veteran has seen Muirfield plenty of times and plays well on tough courses against strong fields. He could surprise this week! You ABSOLUTELY need to see who Gehman is backing and check out his detailed bets and picks before you make your 2021 Memorial Tournament predictions!
