The Memorial Tournament: Preview, betting tips, how to watch

Hosted annually at Muirfield Village Golf Club, the Memorial Tournament is back again with another world-class field.

The event, founded and hosted by 18-time major winner Jack Nicklaus, is an invitational, which guarantees the very best of the PGA Tour will head to Dublin, Ohio.

• Spieth ‘shocked’ he was able to play PGA Championship

Patrick Cantlay has lifted the title here twice in the last four years, so the California native will be after a hat-trick when he returns for the 48th staging of the Memorial.

The 31-year-old could join Tiger Woods and Kenny Perry as the only players to have won it three times.

Workday is the presenting sponsor of the event, after signing a ten-year partnership last year.

The Bunkered Bet

Shane Lowry 40/1

The Irishman looks good value heading to Muirfield Village after taking a break last week. Lowry arrives on the back of a tie for 12th at the PGA Championship, while he tied for sixth here in 2021 and finished 32nd last year. Lowry is currently inside the top 20 on tour for strokes gained tee-to-green and approach, so has the game to succeed in Ohio.
