2023 Memorial Tournament picks, odds, predictions, field: Golf expert fading Rory McIlroy at Muirfield

The PGA Tour heads to Jack’s Place for another designated event, so all the stars are back in action for the 2023 Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village Golf Club. The tournament tees off Thursday in Dublin, Ohio, and Scottie Scheffler is one of a handful of elite players who didn’t take last week off. The world’s No. 1 player tied for third last week at Colonial, while stars like Jon Rahm, Rory McIlroy and Patrick Cantlay took a break after the PGA Championship. Viktor Hovland, Collin Morikawa and Jordan Spieth also played last week and will be vying for the prestigious Memorial Tournament title on the Jack Nicklaus-designed course.          

Scheffler is the 6-1 favorite in Caesars Sportsbook’s latest 2023 Memorial Tournament golf odds. Rahm, who won the Memorial in 2020, is right behind at 7-1, and 2019 and 2021 champion Cantlay is priced at 10-1. McIlroy (12-1), Xander Schauffele (14-1), Hovland (20-1) and Morikawa (22-1) also are among the favorites. Spieth (30-1), Justin Thomas (30-1) and Cameron Young (30-1) also are expected to be top contenders in the Memorial Tournament 2023 field.
