The wealth of knowledge he gained while covering the four major North American sports leagues gives him a different perspective when looking at sports from a betting angle, which could be the advantage you need when placing bets. Mike’s passion for sports began as a teenager and what started as a love for playing grew into a thirst for a journalistic and betting outlook. When he’s not writing about sports betting, he’s either cheering for his kids across various sports leagues, or playing recreationally himself. To Mike, sports isn’t just a hobby, it’s a lifestyle. ### What Advice Would You Give to The Community? Do some research before placing a bet. Having the knowledge of whether a player is injured, or a lineup change has occurred, can be the difference between winning or losing the bet. ### Other Experts: [see all ](/experts) [![Daniel Coyle](https://cdn.oddspedia.com/images/betting/2025/07/Daniel-Coyle-200x200-1.jpg) Daniel Coyle Sports Betting Expert 12+ years of experience ](/experts/daniel-coyle "Daniel Coyle") [![Charles Perrin](https://cdn.oddspedia.com/images/betting/2025/07/perrin.jpeg) Charles Perrin Sports Writer 5+ years of experience ](/experts/charles-perrin "Charles Perrin") [![Peter Henn](https://cdn.oddspedia.com/images/betting/2025/07/author-resized-pic.jpg) Peter Henn Sports Betting Expert 15+ years of experience ](/experts/peter-henn "Peter Henn") ## Latest articles by Michael Meade [![Charles Schwab Challenge Projected Cut Line 2025: Longshots Should Thrive This Week](/placeholder.svg) ](/insights/golf/charles-schwab-challenge-projected-cut) [Charles Schwab Challenge Projected Cut Line 2025: Longshots Should Thrive This Week ](/insights/golf/charles-schwab-challenge-projected-cut) As the golf world calms down from an exciting major last week, golfers are ramping up for another event, and highly focused on avoiding the Charles Schwab Challenge cut line. Fresh off of winning the PGA Championship, Scottie Scheffler opens as the overwhelming favorite in the Charles Schwab Challenge odds, but that’s the exciting aspect of this event. With the odds wide open, it creates a ton of opportunities for the Charles Schwab Challenge sleeper picks to climb up the ranks. * a year ago * [ Golf](/insights/golf) [![PGA Championship Projected Cut Line 2025: Lot of Favorites Are Struggling](/placeholder.svg) ](/insights/golf/pga-championship-projected-cut) [PGA Championship Projected Cut Line 2025: Lot of Favorites Are Struggling ](/insights/golf/pga-championship-projected-cut) Data Golf is projecting that there's a 67.7% chance that the PGA Championship cut line will settle at +1 and a 32.3% chance it finishes at +2\. If it does indeed set at +1, Jordan Spieth, Ludvig Aberg, and Xander Schauffele are all in danger of going home early * a year ago * [ Golf](/insights/golf) [![PGA Championship Odds Movement 2025: Following Hatton, Vegas, and Davis](/placeholder.svg) ](/insights/golf/pga-championship-odds-movement) [PGA Championship Odds Movement 2025: Following Hatton, Vegas, and Davis ](/insights/golf/pga-championship-odds-movement) As Round 2 of the PGA Championship is underway, we picked three golfers to follow to see how much their PGA Championship odds have fluctuated since they first opened. Scottie Scheffler is the slight favorite to begin Day 2, but it's some PGA Championship longshots that are making the most noise. Tyrrell Hatton, Jhonattan Vegas, and Cam Davis have shot up the oddsboard and the PGA Championship leaderboard. * a year ago * [ Golf](/insights/golf) [![Truist Championship Projected Cut Line 2025: No One Goes Home With Empty Pockets](/placeholder.svg) ](/insights/golf/truist-championship-projected-cut) [Truist Championship Projected Cut Line 2025: No One Goes Home With Empty Pockets ](/insights/golf/truist-championship-projected-cut) With the event no longer being called the Wells Fargo Championship, the PGA Tour is giving fans something a lot of people want, which is that there’s no Truist Championship cut line this week. It provides a lot more excitement for everyone, gives the longshots a better chance, which is why we’re loving these Truist Championship sleeper picks. Keith Mitchell is the new favorite in the Truist Championship odds, with Shane Lowry and Rory McIlroy not far behind. * 2 years ago * [ Golf](/insights/golf) [![Myrtle Beach Classic Projected Cut Line 2025: Thin Field Will Put Pressure on Favorites](/placeholder.svg) ](/insights/golf/myrtle-beach-classic-projected-cut) [Myrtle Beach Classic Projected Cut Line 2025: Thin Field Will Put Pressure on Favorites ](/insights/golf/myrtle-beach-classic-projected-cut) While the bigger names don’t have to worry about a Truist Championship cut line, the same can’t be said for the one’s taking part in the other PGA Tour event, as the Myrtle Beach Classic cut line is sure to cause some headaches. With the Myrtle Beach Classic odds wide open, you won’t want to miss out on the Myrtle Beach Classic sleeper picks, as a longshot could very likely find themselves winning the whole thing. * 2 years ago * [ Golf](/insights/golf) [![CJ Cup Byron Nelson Projected Cut Line 2025: A Thin Field Will Add to the Intensity](/placeholder.svg) ](/insights/golf/cj-cup-byron-nelson-projected-cut) [CJ Cup Byron Nelson Projected Cut Line 2025: A Thin Field Will Add to the Intensity ](/insights/golf/cj-cup-byron-nelson-projected-cut) After a fun change of pace with players teaming up at the Zurich Classic, things get back to normal on the PGA Tour, and everyone will need to be cautious of the CJ Cup Byron Nelson cut line. With a slightly thinner field taking place in this weeks tournament, it’ll open a clear path for the CJ Cup Byron Nelson sleeper picks to make a charge to the top. First, they’ll have to deal with Scottie Scheffler, who opens as the favorite in the CJ Cup Byron Nelson odds. * 2 years ago * [ Golf](/insights/golf) [![Zurich Classic Projected Cut Line 2025: An Event Perfect for Sleepers](/placeholder.svg) ](/insights/golf/zurich-classic-of-new-orleans-projected-cut) [Zurich Classic Projected Cut Line 2025: An Event Perfect for Sleepers ](/insights/golf/zurich-classic-of-new-orleans-projected-cut) With a different set up at this week’s PGA Tour event, it makes the Zurich Classic cut line quite interesting, as only the top 33 teams (and ties) will make it to the weekend rounds. With duos joining forces to try and claim a victory, it opens the door for the Zurich Classic sleeper picks to storm to the top of the leaderboard. Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry open as the favorites in the Zurich Classic odds, though even the favorites aren’t safe from the dreading cut line. * 2 years ago * [ Golf](/insights/golf) [![RBC Heritage Projected Cut Line 2025: Everyone Will Play Four Rounds](/placeholder.svg) ](/insights/golf/rbc-heritage-projected-cut) [RBC Heritage Projected Cut Line 2025: Everyone Will Play Four Rounds ](/insights/golf/rbc-heritage-projected-cut) After an exciting yet stressful Masters tournament, golfers can relax a little bit, as they won't have to worry about the RBC Heritage cut line. Scottie Scheffler opens as the overwhelming favorite in the RBC Heritage odds, though there's a ton of talent taking part in the event. Which is why we're so enamored with our RBC Heritage sleeper picks, as we believe a longshot will surprise a few people this week. * 2 years ago * [ Golf](/insights/golf) [![Masters Projected Cut Line 2025: Johnson, Koepka, Mickelson, Pendrith Exit Early](/placeholder.svg) ](/insights/golf/masters-projected-cut) [Masters Projected Cut Line 2025: Johnson, Koepka, Mickelson, Pendrith Exit Early ](/insights/golf/masters-projected-cut) Data Golf's probabilities are usually bang on, and they were once again, as they projected that the Masters cut line would settle at +2\.
