Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas began hosting the PGA Tour annually in 1946 and this week some of the best players in the world will return to the iconic course for the 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge. Daniel Berger is the defending Charles Schwab Challenge winner, beating Collin Morikawa in a playoff in the first event back after the coronavirus shutdown. The win vaulted Berger from 106th to 31st in the Official World Golf Ranking and he’s since moved inside the top 20.
Berger is listed at 18-1 to defend his title in the latest 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge odds from William Hill Sportsbook. Meanwhile, 2016 champion Jordan Spieth will have a home-crowd advantage as a Dallas native and he’s listed as the 10-1 favorite in this week’s PGA Tour odds, while Justin Thomas (12-1) and Collin Morikawa (14-1) are also near the top of the board. Before locking in your 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge picks, be sure to see the 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed last June. In fact, it’s up well over $9,000 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
At the Masters in April, McClure nailed Jon Rahm’s (+250) top-five finish, as well as Corey Conners’ (+550) top-10 showing. McClure’s best bets netted over $450 at the Masters.
In addition, McClure was all over Daniel Berger’s win at +1400 in his best bets at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in February. McClure also nailed Viktor Hovland’s (+2500) victory in the Mayakoba Golf Classic in December. That was one of many huge calls he’s made in the past several months.
This same model has nailed a whopping six majors entering the weekend. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.
Now that the 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge field is locked, SportsLine simulated the event 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge leaderboard.
The model’s top 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge predictions
One major surprise the model is calling for at the Charles Schwab Challenge 2021: Spieth, a three-time major champion and the tournament favorite, struggles and barely cracks the top five. Spieth returned to his winning ways this year by winning the Valero Texas Open, which ended a 1,351-day drought without a victory. He then finished in third place the following week at the 2021 Masters and has seven top-10 finishes this season.
But Spieth is coming off a disappointing 30th place finish at the 2021 PGA Championship in which he broke par in just one round. He continues to struggle off the tee as he ranks 185th (out of 215 golfers) in driving accuracy percentage. That doesn’t forbode good results at the Colonial Country Club, which has numerous doglegs and tight fairways, putting a premium on accuracy. With Spieth’s current form, there are better options for your 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge bets.
Another surprise: Joaquin Niemann, a 30-1 long shot, makes a strong run at the title. The 22-year-old Chilean has made the cut in 19 consecutive worldwide starts and he’s currently the No. 29 player in the Official World Golf Ranking. And despite a slender 152-pound frame, he’s earned a reputation as one of the longest players on the PGA Tour.
Niemann currently ranks seventh in driving distance (312.9) and that length has helped him rank 10th in strokes gained: off the tee (.646). Niemann has used that length to make the cut in each of his three starts at Colonial Country Club, finishing T-8 at the 2018 Fort Worth Invitational before it became the Charles Schwab Challenge the following year. And having improved from 146th in strokes gained: putting in 2020 to 21st this season, he could be a serious contender this week in Fort Worth.
How to make 2021 Charles Schwab Challenge picks
The model is targeting four other golfers with Charles Schwab Challenge odds 2021 of 22-1 or higher to make a strong run at the title. Anyone who backs these underdogs could hit it big. You can only see them here.
