Get ready for a golf showdown that’s bound to shake up the leaderboard! The 2026 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am is here, and it’s already packed with surprises. Kicking off this Thursday at the legendary Pebble Beach Golf Links, this PGA Tour Signature Event marks the season debut of Rory McIlroy, who returns as the defending champion. But here’s where it gets controversial: despite his title, McIlroy is only the second favorite at +1400, trailing Scottie Scheffler’s commanding +300 odds. Could this be the year someone else steals the spotlight? And this is the part most people miss—the SportsLine computer model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has simulated the tournament 10,000 times and uncovered some jaw-dropping predictions.
For starters, Chris Gotterup, who’s been on fire this year with two wins in three events, isn’t even projected to crack the top 10! Meanwhile, Kim is tipped to finish in the top two, making him a high-reward pick for bold bettors. But the real shocker? The model is eyeing four golfers with odds of +3000 or higher as top-10 contenders, including a massive +5000 sleeper. If you’re looking to hit it big, you’ll want to see who they are before placing your bets.
This isn’t just about odds—it’s about strategy. The model has a proven track record of profitability, simulating every PGA Tour event 10,000 times to deliver data-driven insights. Whether you’re a seasoned bettor or a golf enthusiast, these predictions are a game-changer. But here’s the question: Do you trust the model, or do you think the favorites will dominate?
