2019 Safeway Open: SportsLine has surprising picks and predictions

We simulated the 2019 Safeway Open 10,000 times, and there are some major surprises. Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has nailed two of the last three majors entering the weekend. It predicted Gary Woodland's first career major championship at the U.S. Open even though he wasn't the favorite entering the weekend. The result: Woodland held off a late charge from Brooks Koepka and won by three strokes. The model also called Koepka's historic victory at the 2019 PGA Championship, predicting he'd hold his lead in the home stretch. In all, the advanced computer model has nailed a whopping six majors entering the weekend, and anyone who has followed it is way up.

Now, the model has simulated this week's Safeway Open 10,000 times and there are some HUGE surprises.

One major surprise the model is calling for: Adam Scott, a 13-time PGA Tour champion and one of the top Vegas favorites, makes a strong run but falls short of winning it all. There are much better values in a loaded Safeway Open field. Another surprise: Francesco Molinari, a 33-1 long shot, makes a strong run at the title, so he's a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday.

Also, the model says five OTHER golfers with odds of 25-1 or longer will make a strong run at the title. Anyone who backs these underdogs could hit it BIG.

So who wins the Safeway Open? And which HUGE long shots shock the golf world? ... Join SportsLine right now to see who you can bank on to win the 2019 Safeway Open, and see which massive long shots make a run at the title, all from the model that's nailed six golf majors heading into the weekend!
