Miss ✦ AI-generated prediction Published on 14. July 2026 · Predicted for 17. July 2026 · Based on: Statistical Pattern

Probability

62%

Scheffler is the tournament favorite and is predicted as the overall winner on the platform; his Round 1 target (≤70 strokes) is also open. Bookmaker odds imply ~20–22% win probability. PGA Tour data shows 78% of eventual major winners were in the top 5 after Round 2; a top-3 position for the on-site favorite is estimated at ~60–65%. Royal Birkdale's length (>7,000 yards) suits Scheffler's game (World No. 1 in Strokes Gained: Approach). ESPN Power Rankings place him #1. Risks: weather chaos, bogey-heavy opening rounds can disrupt leaders.

Competition from Katie Moon (USA), Sandi Morris (USA) and Alysha Newman (CAN, Olympic bronze 2024). Aggregated bookmaker odds imply ~35–38% for Kennedy.

World Athletics Ultimate Championship Budapest 2026: Marileidy Paulino (DOM) wins the Women's 400m final (12 September 2026)

Marileidy Paulino won gold in the 400m at the Paris 2024 Olympics and is the reigning Olympic champion. Femke Bol (NED), who long dominated, has switched to the 800m in 2026 (her Budapest 2026 entry confirmed in the 800m), so she does not compete in the 400m flat. This clears the path for Paulino: her next serious rivals would be Natalia Kaczmarek (POL, European champion) or Amber Anning (GBR). Aggregated bookmaker odds imply ~48% for Paulino.
