The PGA Tour’s hottest stretch of the season rolls into Charlotte this week for the 2026 Truist Championship at Quail Hollow Club, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. As a Signature Event—the same elite status as last week’s Cadillac Championship—this tournament serves as the perfect warm-up for the PGA Championship, the second major of the year, just one week away.

World No. 2 Rory McIlroy headlines the field at Quail Hollow, where he’s the +550 favorite (risk $100 to win $550) according to the latest odds. But he’s not the only star worth watching. Cameron Young, fresh off a wire-to-wire victory at the Blue Monster, sits at +950, while Xander Schauffele (+1000), Matt Fitzpatrick (+1500), and Ludvig Aberg (+1800) round out a stacked leaderboard. Notably absent is World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who is taking the week off to rest ahead of the major.

For golf fans and bettors alike, this week is a puzzle waiting to be solved. That’s where SportsLine’s proven computer model comes in. Built by DFS pro Mike McClure, the model has simulated the Truist Championship 10,000 times, delivering predictions that have already nailed 17 majors—including the 2026 Masters (its fifth straight correct call) and last year’s PGA Championship and Open Championship. Anyone following its picks has seen serious returns at betting sites.

One major surprise from the model? It’s fading Si Woo Kim, who sits seventh on the odds board at +2500 but barely cracks the top 20 in the projected leaderboard. That’s a bold call, especially since Kim has three top-10 finishes in his last four events, including a T4. But the model says he’s a player to avoid this week.

Whether you’re building a One and Done lineup, setting your PGA DFS picks, or looking for an edge on betting sites, the model’s full projected leaderboard is a must-see. Head to SportsLine now to see the surprising picks that could make your week at Quail Hollow a winning one.
