Before locking in any 2026 Valspar Championship picks, you NEED to see the golf prediction and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, simulates every PGA Tour tournament 10,000 times, and has a lengthy history of being extremely profitable.
Now, with the 2026 Valspar Championship field locked in, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising.
One major surprise the model is calling for this week: Cantlay, one of the favorites, barely cracks the projected top 10! He’s a golfer to fade. Another surprise: Jacob Bridgeman makes a run at the title at +2000. He’s a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday!
The model is also targeting two golfers of +3000 or more to make a strong run to the top of the leaderboard! Anyone who backs this golfer could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY NEED to see who they are before locking in any PGA picks!
