2024 RSM Classic odds, picks, field: Surprising predictions from golf model that’s nailed 13 majors



Mackenzie Hughes has had tremendous success at the RSM Classic over the years. In fact, Hughes finished on top of the leaderboard in 2016 and secured a runner-up finish in 2021 and 2023. The 33-year-old could certainly find himself in the mix again at Sea Island Resort in St. Simons Island, Georgia, when the 2024 RSM Classic gets underway on Thursday, Nov. 21. 

Hughes, who’s finished T-8 or better in two of his last three starts on the PGA Tour, is listed at 35-1 (risk $100 to win $3,500) according to the latest 2024 RSM Classic odds. Defending champion Ludvig Aberg is the 8-1 favorite on the PGA odds board, followed by Davis Thompson (22-1), Denny McCarthy (25-1) and Brian Harman (25-1). Before locking in your 2024 RSM Classic 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 2020. In fact, the model is up more than $9,500 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.

This same model has also nailed a whopping 13 majors entering the weekend, including the 2024 Masters — its third Masters in a row — and this year’s PGA Championship and U.S. Open. Anyone who has followed its sports betting picks has seen massive returns on betting apps like FanDuelDraftKings and Fanatics

Now with the 2024 RSM Classic field locked in, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard.

Top 2024 RSM Classic predictions 

One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2024 RSM Classic: Davis Thompson, a PGA Tour champion and one of the top favorites, stumbles this week and doesn’t even crack the top five. Thompson recorded his first career victory on the PGA Tour at the John Deere Classic in July. He’s also finished T-12 or better in two of his last four starts, which includes a T-5 showing at the Shriners Children’s Open in October. 

However, Thompson has been inconsistent on the green this season. In fact, the 25-year-old enters this week’s event ranked 70th in one-putt percentage (40.18%), 81st in strokes gained: putting (0.088) and 91st in total putting (197.8). He’s not a strong pick to win it all and there are far better values in the RSM Classic field. See who else to fade here

Another surprise: J.J. Spaun, a 35-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He has a much better chance to win it all than his odds imply, so he’s a target for anyone looking for a huge payday.

Spaun has recorded four top-10 finishes this season, which includes a T-6 showing at the Zozo Championship in October. He enters this week’s event ranked 12th in greens in regulation (71.37%) and 17th in strokes gained: approach to green (0.493). Spaun has also finished T-16 or better in each of his last three starts at the RSM Classic, providing great value at these odds. See who else to back here
