2023 Barracuda Championship odds, picks: Proven model reveals projected leaderboard, surprising PGA golf predictions
The 2023 Barracuda Championship tees off Thursday, July 20, from Tahoe Mountain Club (Old Greenwood) in Truckee, California. Stephen Jaeger and Keith Mitchell are the 18-1 co-favorites in the latest PGA Tour odds, followed by Vincent Norrman (25-1), Patrick Rodgers (25-1) and Mark Hubbard (28-1).Â
We simulated the 2023 Barracuda Championship 10,000 times, and there are some MAJOR surprises. Join SportsLine here to see the model's shocking 2023 Barracuda 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!Â
The Barracuda Championship is a co-sanctioned event between the PGA Tour and DP World Tour, featuring the Modified Stableford scoring format that awards eight points for an albatross, five points for an eagle and two points for a birdie. The winner receives 300 FedEx Cup points heading into the final two tournaments before the playoffs. This is the fourth year for Old Greenwood to host the event, with Chez Reavie winning by one point last year.Â
One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2023 Barracuda Championship: Sam Bennett, who made a run at the Masters in April and is one of the top favorites this week, stumbles and fails to crack the top 10! Another surprise: Nick Hardy, 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 28-1 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 Barrucada Championship picks!Â
