The PGA Tour will depart from its typical stroke-play format to offer the best in the world a chance to go one-on-one at the 2022 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play this week starting on Wednesday morning at Austin Country Club. The WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play bracket breaks 64 of the best golfers in the world into 16 groups, with every golfer playing three round-robin matches against the other three golfers in their group. The 16 group winners then participate in a single-elimination tournament with the Round of 16 and quarterfinals played on Saturday and the semifinals and finals played on Sunday. 

Jon Rahm and Justin Thomas are listed as the 14-1 co-favorites in the 2022 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play odds, but if you don't love those options, head-to-head golf picks might be up your alley. Head-to-head golf betting is growing in popularity and allows fans to bet on the individual matchups in this year's WGC-Match Play bracket. Before locking in your own 2022 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play head-to-head golf bets, be sure to check out the golf predictions and betting advice from SportsLine DFS pro and PGA expert, Mike McClure.

SportsLine's proprietary model, built by McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed play in June of 2020. In fact, the model is up over $8,200 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.

At the 2021 Open Championship, McClure's best bets included Collin Morikawa winning outright even though he was listed as a massive 40-1 long shot. In addition, McClure's model was all over Jon Rahm's (10-1) first career major championship victory at the 2021 U.S. Open. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the weekend, but the model still projected him as the winner.

At the Sony Open in 2022, McClure's model listed Hideki Matsuyama among the top contenders. The reigning Masters champion went out and overcame a five-stroke deficit on the back nine of the final round to notch his eighth career PGA Tour victory.

This same model has also nailed a whopping seven majors entering the weekend. Anyone who has followed it has seen massive returns.

Now, McClure has dialed in on the 2022 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play golf tournament, and just locked in his head-to-head picks and PGA predictions. You can only see McClure's WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play head-to-head golf picks at SportsLine.

Top 2022 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play head-to-head predictions 

One head-to-head matchup McClure loves this week is is Adam Scott (-110) over Justin Rose on the three-way betting line in their group-stage matchup. Rose has slid all the way to No. 52 in the Official World Golf Ranking currently after being ranked inside the top 10 as recently as 2020. Rose has missed the cut his last two starts and has never advanced past the quarterfinals in 12 WGC Match Play starts.

Meanwhile, Scott is back up to No. 37 in the OWGR after falling as low as 50th. Scott has three top-10 finishes in his last six worldwide starts and he does have a third-place finish in this event and another quarterfinal appearance, but hasn't played it since 2016. The model likes him to stay hot given how Rose has been struggling and expects the 2013 Masters champion to take the 2013 U.S. Open champion down.
