    If Lucas Glover finishes on top of the leaderboard this week at the 2024 Wyndham Championship, he'll become the first golfer since Sam Snead (1955-56) to win this event in back-to-back years. Glover will have to stave off several serious contenders if he wants to rewrite the history books. Sungjae Im, Billy Horschel, Jordan Spieth and Justin Rose are among the experienced players looking to dethrone Glover and win the Wyndham Championship 2024.

    Play gets underway from Sedgefield Country Club on Thursday, Aug. 8. Im enters this week's event as the 16-1 favorite according to the latest 2024 Wyndham Championship odds. He's followed by Horschel (25-1), Shane Lowry (25-1) and Si Woo Kim (25-1) on the PGA odds board. Before locking in your 2024 Wyndham Championship picks, be sure to see the golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine .

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

    This same model has also 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 2024 Wyndham Championship field locked in, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard .

    Top 2024 Wyndham Championship predictions

    One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2024 Wyndham Championship: Horschel (25-1), an eight-time winner on the PGA Tour and one of the top favorites, stumbles this week and barely cracks the top 10. Horschel is coming off an impressive T-2 finish at the Open Championship, his best-ever showing in a major championship.

    However, Horschel had been struggling mightily prior to that outing, finishing T-41 or worse in three consecutive starts, which included a missed cut at the Genesis Scottish Open. Horschel's iron play has been wildly inconsistent all season and he enters the Wyndham Championship ranked 102nd in greens in regulation percentage (65.65%) and 120th in strokes gained: approach to green (-0.113), which doesn't bode well for his chances to finish on top of the leaderboard this week.

    Another surprise: Aaron Rai, a massive 40-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He has a much better chance to win it all than his odds imply, so he's a target for anyone looking for a huge payday.

    Rai doesn't explode off the tee quite as much as some of the other top contenders, but he's extremely accurate with his tee shots. In fact, the 29-year-old ranks third on the PGA Tour in driving accuracy (71.64%). He's also an elite ball striker, ranking sixth in greens in regulation percentage (71.11%) and eighth in strokes gained: approach to green (0.623). Those impressive stats have helped Rai finish T-7 or better in three of his last four starts on the PGA Tour. If he's able to drain some putts this week, he'll have a great shot at finishing on top of the leaderboard at the 2024 Wyndham Championship. See who else to back here .

    The model is also targeting four other golfers with odds of 35-1 or longer who will make a strong run at the title. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model's picks here .
