[ad_1]

The American Express 2023 gets underway from a trio of courses in La Quinta, Calif., on Thursday, Jan. 19. Experienced and amateur bettors alike will lock in wagers for this event, which features a field loaded with experienced players. Major champions like Scottie Scheffler and Jon Rahm are expected to be in the mix at the 2023 American Express, with 500 FedEx Cup points going to the winner.

Rahm won this event in 2018 and he’s listed as the +550 favorite according to the latest 2023 American Express odds. He’s followed by Patrick Cantlay (+950), Scheffler (+1100) and Tony Finau (+1500) on the PGA odds board. Before locking in your 2023 American Express picks, be sure to see the golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.

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, the model is up nearly $9,500 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.

McClure’s model predicted Jon Rahm (+800) to finish on top of the leaderboard at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions. The model also included J.T. Poston in its best bets to win the 2022 John Deere Classic. That bet hit at +5500, and for the entire tournament, McClure’s best bets returned almost $1,100. 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….
