Phil Mickelson minted golf history on Sunday, becoming the oldest winner of a major tournament with his victory at the 2021 PGA Championship.
Jon Rahm
Jon Rahm is one of the best and most exciting players in the game. He’s already been #1 in the world rankings, earned 12 worldwide victories, competed for the victorious 2018 European Ryder Cup team, received the 2019 European Tour Player of the Year award, and he won two PGA Tour events in 2020. Rahm used Callaway and Odyssey equipment throughout his career at Arizona State University, where he won 11 times and reached #1 in the world amateur rankings.
PGA Championship 2021 picks: Our 8 favorite value bets at Kiawah Island
It’s a major championship week, which means we are back with another installment of value bets. Alternate title: Two clowns from New Jersey find eight more creative ways to light money on fire. Apparently, that’s too much of a mouthful. Whatever.
All jokes aside, we’ve had some decent success in this value space (please don’t actually go back and check on this, but you will find a cashed first-round leader ticket on Brendon Todd from last year’s PGA), enough for our editors to allow us to run it back for every major. If one or two or—gasp—three of these cash, we’re confident you’ll come out in the green this week. That’s the whole point of hunting for perceived value, and hitting on it, which we plan to do.
OK, enough filibustering. Here we go—our 8 favorite value bets for the 2021 PGA Championship at Kiawah Island. Say it with me everybody: Winners. Winners. Winners. Winners.
Justin Rose to finish in the top 20 (+300, William Hill)
Death, taxes, and Justin Rose showing up at major championships. Entering the Masters, there were a number of questions surrounding both his health and his game, and he still managed to finish solo seventh. He’s only played in two events since, finishing T-11 in the team event at Zurich and missing the cut at Valspar, which must be the reason for this crazy dip in his odds. But on the four biggest weeks of the year, the Englishman is as reliable as they come, with 26 top-20 finishes in majors in his career, including a T-3 at Kiawah Island at 2012. — Christopher Powers
Brian Harman to finish in the top 20 after Round 1 (+350, DraftKings)
This bet cashed easily in this space for me at last month’s Masters—Harman was T-2 after Round 1. It continues a trend we’ve seen from the diminutive lefty: He ranks third on the PGA Tour this season in Round 1 scoring. The cherry on top? This guy is a true big game hunter. He likes the spotlight of the majors. Don’t forget at Erin Hills—one of the longest courses in major history—Harman contended ’till the very end. This former Georgia Bulldog loves to eat in Round
1. — Stephen Hennessey
Cameron Smith to finish in the top 20 after Round 1 (+275, DraftKings)
Love, love, love Stevie’s Harman call, but I love this one a little bit more. Guess who is leading the PGA Tour in first-round scoring average? It’s the mullet man Cam Smith, who averages 68.54 on Thursdays, 0.21 better than Patrick Reed, who ranks second. He could have a below average round, say something in the 70-72 range, and you’ll still likely cash this ticket, unless all these guys are all lying about how hard it’s going to play. — CP
Stewart Cink to finish in the top 20 (+500, FanDuel)
Few golfers have been better this season than Stewart Cink. The 47-year-old has added so much distance that he’s hitting it further than he did 10 years ago (he’s ranked in the top 25 on tour for driving distance). Plus, he just won the last PGA Tour event in South Carolina … Cink should feel at home here and keep up his consistent play. — SH
Will Zalatoris to finish in the top 10 (+450, William Hill)
We live in a results-based world, and the results say Willy Z has seen a dip in form since his runner-up at Augusta National. A closer look at the numbers, however, would show you he’s still been red hot with his irons and just had a few off weeks with the putter. We know that can flip at any moment, and Zalatoris has already proven he can dial it in at the majors, with a T-6 and a runner-up in two of his three (!) career major starts. — CP
Tony Finau to finish in the top 10 (+410, FanDuel)
The guy’s nickname is top-10 Tony for crying out loud . . . who wouldn’t bet this at over 4-to-1 on your money! In all sincerity, there’s a lot to love about this bet. Finau has top-10 finishes in 10 of his 18 career major starts. I also love that he ranks third in this field in strokes gained/total in the past 50 rounds on difficult courses with difficult-to-hit fairways, which is what we should expect this week (stat per Fantasy National). His length gives him a big-time advantage over the rest of the field. — SH
Round 1 groups, best score – Lee Westwood (+300, DraftKings) over Xander Schauffele and Viktor Hovland
This one kind of jumped off the page for me when I locked eyes on it, and I’m betting on Viktor Hovland to win the tournament. But here, all you need is Westwood to beat him on Thursday, and hopefully for my sake it’s with a 67 to Hovland’s 68 (Xander can shoot whatever as long as it’s higher than Westy). The veteran Englishman took some much-needed time off after Harbour Town, and looked back in form last week at Byron Nelson. Historically at majors, he usually gets off to very great starts, then comes up short on the weekend. With this bet, you get right into the action and don’t have to worry about the weekend. I love the old dog here. — CP
Make-the-cut parlay: Jordan Spieth, Xander Schauffele, Viktor Hovland, Cameron Smith, Abraham Ancer, Corey Conners and Marc Leishman (+650, Bet365)
These are some of the most fun bets to make. Not every book allows you to parlay these make-the-cut bets, but if yours does, I like the consistency that these players offer. It’s a great sweat come Friday afternoon—though hopefully these guys make it to the weekend sweat-free. — SH
K.H. Lee wins AT&T Byron Nelson, earns first PGA TOUR Victory
K.H. Lee was more than happy to play through a steady downpour in the final round of the AT&T Byron Nelson, and didn’t mind waiting out a weather delay of more than two hours Sunday.
His win earned him fully-exempt status through the 2022-23 PGA TOUR season, 500 FedExCup points and entry into many of the game’s biggest event’s, starting with this week’s PGA Championship.
Lee also earned his first PGA TOUR victory and became the second consecutive AT&T Byron Nelson winner from South Korea by finishing at 25 under, three ahead of third-round leader Sam Burns.
Heavy rain fell most of the back nine for the leaders, with puddles showing up on greens over the final holes and one ball in the fairway stuck in the middle of a fast-moving stream. The players slogged through the deluge before lightning forced a delay.
Most of the standing water was gone when play resumed two hours and 23 minutes later. Lee missed a par putt on No. 16 to cut his lead to two, but answered with two birdies. The sun came out just as Lee was finishing his 6-under 66.
Burns struggled to a 71 to finish at 22 under, a shot ahead of Charl Schwartzel, Daniel Berger, Patton Kizzire and Scott Stallings. Troy Merritt and Joseph Bramlett finished two more back at 19 under.
When the delay hit, Jordan Spieth already knew he was going to fall short again in his hometown event, played on its third course in the past four Nelsons at the rain-soaked TPC Craig Ranch in McKinney, about 30 miles north of Dallas.
Spieth, three back to start the day, shot 71 and tied for ninth, giving him his first top 10 at the Nelson 11 years after he was a contender on Sunday as a 16-year-old when the course was at its home of more than 30 years at the TPC Four Seasons.
South Korea’s Sung Kang was the defending champion after winning in 2019.
Threesomes started from the first and 10th tees just after daybreak to try to beat a forecast calling for increasing rain throughout the day.
Steady rain for two-plus hours got progressively worse as players began ducking for cover under umbrellas immediately after shots and constantly wiped grips with towels. From the start of the round, they got to lift, clean and place their shots in the fairways.
Lee overtook Burns, who shot 70, before it got really wet.
The 29-year-old from Seoul went ahead for good with a birdie on the par-4 third hole and stretched the lead to four at No. 8 by putting his second shot within 4 feet for birdie.
Lee, who finished tied for second at the Waste Management Phoenix Open in February, had the lowest score to par at the Nelson on the par-72 TPC Craig Ranch layout, beating 23 under from both years at par-71 Trinity Forest. The TPC Four Seasons was par 70.
Lee is getting his third shot at a major after twice missing the cut at the U.S. Open. The first was in 2014, more than three years before his second PGA TOUR appearance.
Burns wrapped up his PGA Championship spot two weeks ago with his first TOUR victory at the Valspar Championship when he converted a 54-hole lead into a win after two failed attempts this season.
The 54-hole lead again got away from the 24-year-old from Louisiana, who was trying to become the first player since Camilo Villegas in 2008 to get his first two PGA TOUR victories in consecutive starts.
Seamus Power was 21 under through eight holes but fell back with a rare double bogey at the par-4 13th on a course that yielded nearly 100 scores in the 60s in the opening round. Power shot 70 and was in the group at 18 under with Spieth, Jhonattan Vegas (67) and Doc Redman (70).
Kizzire, the only player with two rounds of 64 or better, was 8 under for the day through 12 before settling for his 63. He vaulted in contention with a second-round 64 before a 71 Saturday.

2021 Wells Fargo Championship odds: Surprising PGA Picks, Predictions from model that called Six Golf Majors
SportsLine’s proven computer model ran 10,000 simulations of the 2021 Wells Fargo Championship and came up with a surprising leaderboard
Ahead of the 2021 Wells Fargo Championship, there have been 30 winners on the PGA Tour this season. World No. 3 Jon Rahm, however, is still looking for his first victory. The Spaniard last won a tournament in August 2020 but has maintained a top-three ranking since then thanks to nine top-10 finishes over that span. Rahm will tee off on Thursday hoping to end his drought from Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, N.C.
Rahm is one of the favorites at 12-1 in the 2021 Wells Fargo Championship odds from William Hill Sportsbook. He’s just behind Justin Thomas (10-1), who won the 2017 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow Club. World No. 5 Bryson DeChambeau comes in at 16-1, while two-time Wells Fargo Championship winner Rory McIlroy is listed at 18-1. Before finalizing any 2021 Wells Fargo 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 last June. In fact, it’s up almost $10,000 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
At the Masters in April, McClure nailed Jon Rahm’s (+250) top-five finish, as well as Corey Conners’ (+550) top-10 showing. McClure’s best bets netted over $450 at the Masters.
In addition, McClure was all over Daniel Berger’s win at +1400 in his best bets at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in February. McClure also nailed Viktor Hovland’s (+2500) victory in the Mayakoba Golf Classic in December. That was one of many huge calls he’s made in the past few months.
This same model has nailed a whopping six majors entering the weekend. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.
Now that the 2021 Wells Fargo Championship field is locked, SportsLine simulated the event 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard.
The model’s top 2021 Wells Fargo Championship predictions
One major surprise the model is calling for at the Wells Fargo Championship 2021: DeChambeau, the third-favorite at 16-1, stumbles and doesn’t even crack the top five. DeChambeau is just one of two golfers who’ve won multiple events on tour this season, claiming the 2020 US Open and the 2021 Arnold Palmer Invitational. But he’s coming off back-to-back poor performances and finished outside the top 40 in his last two tournaments.
DeChambeau leads the PGA Tour in driving distance for the second year in a row, but his putting has dropped off considerably this season. He ranked among the top 10 in strokes gained via putting last season but now is a pedestrian 38th on tour. That drop-off will put him at a disadvantage at Quail Hollow Club as it has many crowned greens with firm surfaces, making putting a challenge. Don’t be swayed by DeChambeau’s work off the tee as other parts of his game should keep him from the top of the 2021 Wells Fargo Championship leaderboard.
Another surprise: Patrick Cantlay, a 28-1 long shot, makes a strong run at the title. Cantlay has a much better chance to win it all than his odds imply, making him a great choice for 2021 Wells Fargo Championship bets. He already has one win on tour this season in addition to a runner-up, a third-place finish and four other top-15 finishes.
Cantlay can thank his short game for his name appearing on many leaderboards this season as he ranks sixth on tour in strokes gained around-the-green (.458). His 67.81 scrambling percentage ranks second, which will come in handy as the Quail Hollow Club tightened its fairways in recent years. Few can match Cantlay’s acumen when chipping and that’s helped him to a 4.50 birdie average, which is top 10 on tour.

Nelly Korda survives a struggle, keeps lead in Olympic golf
Nelly Korda had to work for pars instead of making birdies look routine, and the 23-year-old American did well enough to keep her distance in pursuit of an Olympic golf medal.
Korda saved par with a 5-foot putt on the 17th hole and then got up-and-down from behind the 18th with a nifty pitch to 4 feet to finish with 12 straight pars for a 2-under 69.
She had a three-shot lead over Aditi Ashok of India, who is nearly last in the 60-player field in driving distance and near the top in sheer determination. She had a 68.
And for now, there will be a final round.
Olympic golf officials plan to start play as early as possible Saturday and take advantage of a window they hope is big enough to squeeze in 72 holes before a tropical storm in the forecast arrives.
Korda let out a sigh when her final par putt dropped. This was a day when her swing was off and she managed to hold it together at Kasumigaseki Country Club.
Asked what made her happiest amid such a struggle, she replied, “Probably my fight.”
“I didn’t have a really good back nine. I was kind of spraying it all over the place. I had some testy par putts,” Korda said. “But made all pars and I fought really hard to stay in it really, or ahead of it.”
Korda was at 15-under 198 as she tries to add a gold medal to a year in which she won her first major and reached No. 1 in the world.
Behind her was another fight shaping up for the bronze. Mone Inami of Japan, who was given the honor of hitting the opening tee shot, missed a 7-foot par putt on the final hole for a 68. She was five shots behind in four-way tie for third with Lydia Ko of New Zealand (66), Hanna Green of Australia (67) and Emily Kristine Pedersen of Denmark (70).
Inami said she spoke briefly to Hideki Matsuyama, who was eliminated in a seven-way playoff for the bronze in the men’s tournament.
“He said that because he wasn’t able to win the medal on the men’s side he wished us good luck on the women’s side,” she said.
The scenario was far different from last week with the men’s competition, when eight players were separated by four shots going into the final round. Outside of Ashok, the closest players to Korda were five shots back.
One of them was Ko, the silver medalist from Rio de Janeiro, who mentioned how Minjee Lee came from seven behind on the final day to win the Evian Championship two weeks ago for her first LPGA major.
“You can never give up. I think it doesn’t matter how many shots back you are,” Ko said. “Rory Sabbatini shot 10 under on the last day last week to become the silver medalist. Sometimes I just don’t think you can count yourself out of it.”
At least there’s a reasonable chance. For a short time, it looked as though Korda might turn this into a runaway. She quickly stretched her lead to five shots by opening with three birdies in six holes. She had a wedge from 80 yards for her third on the par-5 eighth.
But she hit a clunker, and it came down a ridge some 50 feet away. Korda came up 10 feet short and three-putted for a bogey. Until then, she had made birdie on every par 5 this week.
“There’s something inside of me when I bogey a par 5 that I just get so frustrated about because I shouldn’t be doing that,” Korda said. “But I kept telling myself that there’s more opportunities ahead.”
She just didn’t capitalize on them. Her last birdie of the day came on the sixth hole.
Ashok stayed close, even after a bogey from the bunker on No. 9 and a three-putt bogey from some 60 feet on the 11th hole.
She holed birdie putts from 18 feet on the 15th hole and 15 feet on the 17th hole, and her nervy par on the 18th kept her in range of Korda, with high hopes for bringing home a medal.
“One more day of golf and a lot happens on the final day,” Ashok said. “Sometimes the final day, although it’s just one round, it feels long mentally. So definitely staying patient, and hoping we have good weather and hope I play good tomorrow.”
