The 2023 Barbasol Championship tees off Thursday, July 13, from Keene Trace Golf Club in Nicholasville, Kentucky. Taylor Pendrith is the 18-1 favorite in the latest PGA Tour odds, followed by Vincent Norman (25-1), Lucas Glover (25-1) and Akshay Bhatia (28-1). 

We simulated the 2023 Barbasol Championship 10,000 times, and there are some MAJOR surprises. Join SportsLine here to see the model's shocking 2023 Barbasol Championship projected leaderboard.

Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact, the model is up more than $10,000 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.

McClure's model predicted Jon Rahm would finish on top of the leaderboard at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions and The American Express. And at the 2023 Masters, the model was all over Rahm's second career major victory heading into the weekend. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the third round, but the model still projected him as the winner. It was the second straight Masters win for the model, which also nailed Scottie Scheffler winning in 2022.

In addition, the model included Nick Taylor in its best bets to win the 2023 RBC Canadian Open. That bet hit at +7000, and for the entire tournament, McClure's best bets returned nearly $1,900. McClure's best bets also included Jason Day (17-1) winning outright at the 2023 AT&T Byron Nelson and Rickie Fowler (14-1) finishing on top of the leaderboard at the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic.

This same model has also nailed a whopping nine majors entering the weekend! Anyone who has followed it has seen MASSIVE returns! 

Kentucky is hosting this tournament for the fifth time, with this being its second year as a co-sanctioned event with the DP World Tour. Julien Guerrier is the top-ranked player from the DP World Tour in this week's field, joining Aaron Cockerill and Marcus Helligkilde. Meanwhile, recent PGA Tour winners Cameron Champ, Chad Ramey and Erik van Rooyen are also in the field. There are only six events remaining in the FedEx Cup regular season, so several golfers are hoping to secure playoff berths. 

One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2023 Barbasol Championship: Glover, one of the top favorites, stumbles and barely cracks the top 10! Another surprise: Troy Merritt, a 45-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He's a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday.

Also, the model is targeting THREE other golfers with odds of 30-1 or longer who will make surprising runs! Anyone who backs these golfers could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any 2023 Barbasol Championship picks!
