2024 RBC Canadian Open odds, picks: Proven model reveals projected leaderboard, surprising PGA golf predictions

The 2024 RBC Canadian Open returns to Hamilton Golf and Country Club this week, marking its first trip there since Rory McIlroy's seven-stroke victory over Shane Lowry and Webb Simpson in 2019. McIlroy is the +330 favorite (risk $100 to win $330) in the 2024 RBC Canadian Open odds, with every other golfer on the PGA odds board outside of 10-1. Defending champion Nick Taylor is a 70-1 longshot after he became the first Canadian to win the event in 69 years. 

This tournament was canceled in 2020 and 2021, and McIlroy won when the event resumed in 2022, giving him two wins in the last three editions. Some of the other 2024 RBC Canadian Open contenders include Tommy Fleetwood (+1800), Sahith Theegala (+2000), Lowry (+2200) and Cameron Young (+2200). The first tee times come at 6:45 a.m. ET on Thursday.

We simulated the 2024 RBC Canadian Open 10,000 times, and there are some MAJOR surprises. Join SportsLine here to see the model's shocking projected leaderboard.

Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact, the model is up nearly $9,000 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament!

McClure's model predicted Scheffler would finish on top of the leaderboard at the 2024 Masters, Arnold Palmer Invitational, and The Players Championship this season. McClure also included Hideki Matsuyama in his best bets to win the 2024 Genesis Invitational. That bet hit at +9000, and for the entire tournament, McClure's best bets returned nearly $1,000! And at the 2024 PGA Championship, the model correctly called Xander Schauffele's first major victory heading into the weekend. 

The model also predicted Rahm would be victorious at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions and The American Express. At the 2023 Masters, the model was all over Rahm's second career major victory heading into the weekend. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the third round, but the model still projected him as the winner. It was the second straight Masters win for the model, which also nailed Scheffler winning in 2022.

In addition, McClure's best bets included Nick Taylor (70-1) winning the 2023 RBC Canadian Open, Jason Day (17-1) winning the 2023 AT&T Byron Nelson, and Rickie Fowler (14-1) finishing on top of the leaderboard at the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic.

This same model has also nailed a whopping 12 majors entering the weekend, including both the 2024 Masters -- it's third Masters in a row -- and this year's PGA Championship! Anyone who has followed it has seen MASSIVE returns! Join SportsLine now to see the model's shocking 2024 RBC Canadian Open picks from 10,000 simulations!

One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2024 RBC Canadian Open: Fleetwood, who finished as the runner-up last year and has the second-shortest odds this year, stumbles this week and barely cracks the top five! Another surprise: Taylor Pendrith, a big 65-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He's a target for anyone looking for a HUGE payday!

Also, the model is targeting FOUR other golfers with odds of 25-1 or longer who will make a STRONG run at the title, and it is backing a triple-digit longshot in outright best bets! Anyone who backs these golfers could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who they are before locking in any 2024 RBC Canadian Open picks!
