He&#8217;s yet to record a top-10 finish in 2026 and he&#8217;s missed two cuts in six events. The model has found far better values on the PGA odds board.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/insiders\/2026-valspar-championship-odds-picks-proven-golf-model-reveals-projected-leaderboard-surprising-predictions\/#ttag=03162026_agg_cbssports_picks_golf_pgatour_model_ValsparChampionship\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">See who else to fade here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Another surprise: The model says Jacob Bridgeman is a top-three contender this week.The 26-year-old American is having a breakout year thus far, highlighted by a win at the Genesis Invitational in February.
