2024 Memorial Tournament odds, predictions: Picks and best bets for this week's PGA Tour event from a golf expert

The 2024 Memorial Tournament, which begins on Thursday from Muirfield Village Golf Club in Ohio, is the last stop before next week's U.S. Open. Scottie Scheffler, the No. 1 ranked player in the world, is the +360 favorite (risk $100 to win $360) in the latest 2024 Memorial Tournament odds. Rory McIlroy (+800) and Xander Schauffele (+900) are next in line on the PGA odds board, while defending champion Viktor Hovland is listed at +1800 to utilize in 2024 Memorial Tournament bets.

Before locking in any 2024 Memorial Tournament picks, make sure you see the PGA Tour predictions and best bets from golf betting and fantasy expert Sia Nejad.

Nejad specializes in betting and DFS in golf, among other sports. He's had incredible success in the outright and first-round leader markets and in betting head-to-head matchups. He also has been solid with his head-to-head picks since last year's Charles Schwab Challenge, going 48-30-3 and returning 15.09 units over that span. That's a $1,509 profit for $100 bettors since May 2023.

Nejad also nailed 75-1 longshot Wyndham Clark as the outright winner at the Wells Fargo Championship in 2023. In 2023, SportsLine debuted The Early Wedge, and in the first three months of the show, he hit two first-round leaders and three outright winners.

Now, Nejad has been digging into the 2024 Memorial Tournament field to find the best value and just locked in his best bets and favorites to avoid.

One surprise: Nejad is fading Patrick Cantlay (+2500), even though he has won this event twice in the last five years (2019, 2021). Another curveball: Nejad is high on Corey Conners (+5500). The Canadian is coming off a sixth-place finish last week in his native country, marking his best finish of the season. His strengths should also play well at The Memorial, with Nejad saying, "he's typically a fantastic ball striker and he's shown a recent ability to spike with the putter gaining an insane 6.42 strokes in last week's RBC Canadian Open (gained ARG as well)."

Moreover, Nejad is jumping on a longshot who's priced at more than +7000! This player "sets up too well for this course to be at this long of a number" and is a longshot who could surprise. You ABSOLUTELY NEED to see who it is before locking in any 2024 Memorial Tournament picks of your own!

So which 2024 Memorial Tournament golfers should you target or avoid, and which player could bring a huge payday at more than +7000? ... Join SportsLine right now to see Sia Nejad's top picks for the 2024 Memorial Tournament, all from the expert who is 48-30-3 on his last 81 head-to-head picks!
