2024 Open Championship odds, picks, field: Surprising predictions from same golf model that nailed 13 majors

Sportsline's proven model simulated the british open 2024 10,000 times and revealed its surprising pga tour golf picks.

After missing two short putts and losing by a stroke to Bryson DeChambeau at the U.S. Open, Rory McIlroy has decided to take some time off from the PGA Tour, but he'll be back in action at Royal Troon in Scotland when the 2024 Open Championship begins on July 18. McIlroy won the 2014 Open Championship at Royal Liverpool but his major championship drought is approaching 10 years and he'll likely face heavy scrutiny after forgoing the media at Pinehurst. So can he finally get the monkey off his back to win a fifth major championship?

McIlroy is priced at 13-2 in the 2024 Open Championship odds, while Scottie Scheffler is the 5-1 favorite. They're followed by Bryson DeChambeau (11-1), Xander Schauffele (14-1) and Ludvig Aberg (14-1) in the 2024 British Open odds. Before locking in your 2024 Open Championship picks, be sure to  see the golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine .

Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June 2020. In fact, the model is up nearly $9,500 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.

This same model has also nailed a whopping 13 majors entering the weekend, including the 2024 Masters, its third Masters in a row, and this year's PGA Championship and U.S. Open. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns. 

Now with the Open Championship 2024 field locked in, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard .

Top 2024 Open Championship predictions 

One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2024 Open Championship: McIlroy (13-2), the 2014 Open Championship winner and one of the top favorites, stumbles and doesn't even crack the top five. McIlroy's 10-year major championship drought is well documented, which made his mishaps down the stretch of the U.S. Open even more painful. He missed multiple putts within four feet in the final three holes, leading to a brutal runner-up finish. 

It is going to be difficult for McIlroy to overcome those lingering emotions in the final major of the year, especially since the Open Championship brings its own unique pressure for the Northern Irishman. He has finished outside the top 40 in two of his last four appearances at this tournament, and he did not crack the top 10 at the Masters or PGA Championship earlier this season. McIlroy ranks outside the top 50 on the PGA Tour in GIR percentage, which is another reason why the model is fading him in this year's final major. See who else to fade here .

Another surprise: Jordan Spieth, a 47-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He has a much better chance to win it all than his odds imply, so he's a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. The 30-year-old is a 13-time PGA Tour winner and three-time major champion, including a victory in the 2017 Open Championship at Royal Birkdale.

Spieth has never missed the cut in 10 attempts at the British Open and he's piled up four other top-10 finishes in addition to his win in 2017. He's currently ranked No. 29 in the world and he's put together three top-10 finishes in 2024. He was T-30 at Royal Troon in 2016 so he'll have course knowledge at his disposal this time around and is a serious threat to hoist the Claret Jug.  See who else to back here . 

How to make 2024 Open Championship picks

The model is also targeting two other golfers with odds of 20-1 or longer to make a strong run at the title. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big.  You can only see the model's picks here .

Who will win the 2024 Open Championship, and which longshots will stun the golfing world? Check out the Open Championship 2024 odds below and then visit SportsLine to see the projected Open Championship leaderboard, all from the model that's nailed 13 golf majors, including the last three Masters and all three majors this year .

2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic DFS: Optimal DraftKings, FanDuel daily Fantasy golf picks, lineups, strategy

Expert with over $2m in winnings gives pga dfs advice and 2024 rocket mortgage classic dfs strategy for draftkings and fanduel.

The PGA DFS player pool for the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic is loaded with golfers looking to make a name for themselves. Cameron Young and Alex Noren are veterans on the PGA Tour but both are still searching for their first victories on tour. Young made history last week, shooting a 59 in the third round of the Travelers Championship, the 13th sub-60 score in PGA Tour history. Meanwhile, Noren has racked up 10 top-25 finishes this season. 

Should Young or Noren be included in your PGA DFS picks, or should you look elsewhere for value? Before you lock in your PGA DFS picks for the Rocket Mortgage Classic 2024, you'll want to see the latest daily Fantasy golf picks, advice and player pool from SportsLine's Mike McClure .

McClure is a DFS pro with over $2 million in career winnings, and he's been red-hot on his PGA Tour picks this season. McClure is also a predictive data engineer at SportsLine who uses a powerful prediction model that simulates every tournament 10,000 times, taking factors like statistical trends, past results, and current form into account. This allows him to find the best PGA DFS values and create optimal lineups that he shares only over at SportsLine. They're a must-see for any PGA DFS player.

In addition, McClure's model is up nearly $9,500 on its best bets since June 2020, nailing tournament after tournament. This same model has also nailed a whopping 13 majors entering the weekend, including the 2024 Masters -- its third Masters in a row -- and this year's PGA Championship and U.S. Open.

Now, McClure has set his sights on the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic and revealed his optimal PGA DFS advice, strategy, and player pool. Head to SportsLine now to see his top golf DFS picks for the Rocket Mortgage Classic 2024 . 

Top 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic PGA DFS picks

One of McClure's top PGA DFS picks for the Rocket Mortgage Classic 2024 is Maverick McNealy at $8,900 on DraftKings and $11,300 on FanDuel. McNealy enters this week's event full of confidence after finishing T-17 or better in each of his last two starts on the PGA Tour, which includes a T-7 finish at the RBC Canadian Open earlier this month. 

The 28-year-old has all the tools needed to return solid value for your PGA DFS lineups at Detroit Golf Club. In fact, McNealy is currently ranked fourth in scoring average (69.22), seventh in putts per round (27.86), eighth in strokes gained: total (1.154), and 16th in birdie average (4.15), making him a solid building block for PGA DFS lineups. 

McClure's optimal PGA DFS strategy also includes rostering Aaron Rai at $8,800 on DraftKings and $10,600 on FanDuel. 

In order to score well at Detroit Golf Club, players will need to be extremely accurate with their irons and few do it better than Rai. In fact, the 29-year-old enters this week's event ranked sixth in greens in regulation percentage (70.68%) and seventh in strokes gained: approach to green (0.639). He also ranks eighth in driving accuracy (72.92%) and 26th in strokes gained: off the tee (0.379). Those impressive stats make Rai a complete steal at this price point, so confidently lock him in your PGA DFS lineups. See who else to back right here .
