2021 Farmers Insurance Open props, picks: Data scientist reveals favorites from the PGA Tour field to win, matchup plays

Uncanny golf handicapper Rick Gehman gives his best bets for this week's PGA Tour event at Torrey Pines

With his data-driven approach to betting golf, Rick Gehman routinely crushes sportsbooks. Over the final 17 tournaments of the 2020 season, Gehman's bets cashed more than $1,900 for $100 players. And just last week at The American Express, his bets brought in nearly $600!

Gehman was on a roll at La Quinta, cashing a top-five bet on Patrick Cantlay (67-20) and hitting top-10 wagers on both Abraham Ancer (7-2) and Francesco Molinari (10-1). Cantlay also fell one stroke short of cashing the 13-1 bet to win after shooting a course-record 61 on Sunday. Anyone who followed Gehman's advice cashed in HUGE!   

At the Sony Open the previous week, Gehman went all in on Webb Simpson, pushing him hard in all formats. Simpson led in the early going before shooting 67 on Saturday. But he roared to a 64 in the final round to cash Gehman's top-five ticket and a matchup play against Harris English.

His success builds on last season, when Gehman told SportsLine readers to bet Simpson to win at 30-1 at the 2020 RBC Heritage before Simpson went 22 under to cash that bet. And at November's Mayakoba Golf Classic, Gehman tabbed Viktor Hovland (25-1) as a top contender before his second career Tour victory. Anyone who has followed Gehman's advice has seen MASSIVE returns! 

Now Gehman, whose models have produced 12 outright winners in the past year, has analyzed the latest 2021 Farmers Insurance Open odds from William Hill Sportsbook and revealed his picks to win.

We can tell you Gehman isn't hesitating to jump on Jon Rahm this week! The Spaniard withdrew last week, but his "injury" isn't a concern, and he has finished in the top five in three of his four times playing this event. That includes a victory and a runner-up, and Gehman has no reason to think Rahm won't be at the top of the leaderboard Sunday!

Gehman has isolated three other players to win, with all three coming in at more than 35-1! This includes a veteran fetching around 70-1 odds who struggled with injuries the past several months. But he appears healthy, and Torrey Pines sets up perfectly for him. This veteran finally cracked the top 20 again last week, and this could be the week he proves he's back! You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is, along with Gehman's detailed bets and picks, before you bet the 2021 Farmers Insurance Open.
