Xander Schauffele is on fire as he hunts for his second win of the season at the 2024 Travelers Championship. The Southern California native and world No. 2 got his first win of the season at the PGA Championship, which was also the first major title of his career. He heads to TPC River Highlands with four straight top-10 finishes and should be confident given he won the Travelers Championship in 2022. According to the latest 2024 Travelers Championship odds, Schauffele is going off at 15-2.Â
Scottie Scheffler, who finished T-4 at TPC River Highlands last year, is the 4-1 favorite on the PGA odds board. Should you back Schauffele or Scheffler to win the 2024 Travelers Championship at such short odds? Before locking in your 2024 Travelers Championship picks or Scottie Scheffler props, be sure to see the golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot on its PGA Tour picks in recent years. In fact, the model is up nearly $9,500 on its best bets since June 2020, 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!Â
McClure's best bets also included Bryson DeChambeau winning the 2024 U.S. Open at +1800 odds and the model correctly predicted his second major victory heading into the weekend. And at the 2024 PGA Championship, the model correctly called Xander Schauffele's first major championship heading into the weekend.Â
The model also predicted Jon 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.
In addition, McClure's best bets included Nick Taylor (70-1) winning the 2023 RBC Canadian Open, Jason Day (17-1) winning outright at 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 nailed a whopping 13 majors entering the weekend, including the 2024 Masters -- its third Masters in a row -- and this year's PGA Championship and U.S. Open. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.
Now with the Travelers Championship 2024 field taking shape, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard.
Top 2024 Travelers Championship predictionsÂ
One major surprise: Corey Conners, a massive 50-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He's a target for anyone looking for a huge payday.
In order to score well this week, players will need to be extremely accurate with their irons and few do it better than Conners. The 32-year-old Canadian enters this week's event ranked second in strokes gained: approach to green (0.920) and sixth in greens in regulation percentage (70.37%). He's also been accurate off the tee, ranking 19th in driving accuracy (68.67%). Those impressive stats, plus his long odds, make him a strong value pick for your 2024 Travelers Championship bets this week.
The model has also examined where Scheffler finishes. Scheffler finished T4 at the Travelers Championship last season, and he has won five tournaments this season. He is coming off his worst showing of the year though, barely making the cut before finishing T41 at 8 over in the U.S. Open last week.Â
The 27-year-old won the Masters and RBC Heritage in April before adding a T8 in the PGA Championship and a T2 in the Charles Schwab Challenge. He picked up his fifth win of the year in the Memorial Tournament at 8 under prior to his dud in the third major of the year. Scheffler leads the PGA Tour in total strokes gained, scoring average and birdie average, so he is considered one of the top threats to win the Travelers. The model just locked in its Scottie Scheffler Travelers Championship picks here.

The model is also targeting four other golfers with odds of 22-1 or longer to make a strong run at the title, and McClure's best bets include a massive triple-digit longshot. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model's picks here.
