Three weeks before Justin Thomas won the PGA Championship five years ago, he missed the cut at the Open Championship and followed that up with a 28th-place showing at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational. His win remains his only career major victory, but he returns to the tournament at Southern Hills Country Club as a 14-1 option in the 2022 PGA Championship odds at Caesars Sportsbook. In his 2017 victory, he bounced back from a two-over in the first round with a five-under the following day to put him back into contention.
This year, Thomas has finished worse than 30th in three of his last five tournaments, but he still has better odds to win the PGA Championship 2022 than others like Dustin Johnson (16-1), Brooks Koepka (18-1) and Jordan Spieth (20-1). World No. 1 and Masters champion Scottie Scheffler is the 2022 PGA Championship favorite to win in his second major of the season at 11-1.

SportsLine’s proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact, it’s up over $7,500 on its best bets since that point, nailing tournament after tournament.
At the 2022 Masters, McClure’s model was all over Scottie Scheffler’s first career major championship victory heading into the weekend. In addition, McClure’s best bets included Collin Morikawa winning outright at the 2021 Open Championship, even though he was listed as a massive 40-1 long shot. The model was also all over Jon Rahm’s (10-1) first career major championship victory at the 2021 U.S. Open. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the weekend, but the model still projected him as the winner.
This same model has also nailed a whopping eight majors entering the weekend. Anyone who has followed…
