Golf Betting

Thanks guys for the responses and advice. Some super ideas there. I will try not to lose my house! Going to sit down and have a wee nosy at the odd over the next day or so and see what I fancy.

I can't do much worse than my football coupon history.
 
Well I have picked my runners for the action but I will wait until after the cut before I announce who I have went for and give you all a laugh. :rofl:

Look at as many sources as you can, they all have different angles on who should perform well and you have to make your own mind up as to whether you think that's the right angle.

Had a wee look at a few different sources and more confused now than ever. If only it was like the horses and you were picking names or jockey's colours...

Ta.
 
The British Masters has been on the horizon since the free tickets were offered by Sky back in April. We will be on the course tomorrow (Thursday) and thoroughly looking forward to viewing most of the European Tours' talent close-up. The Marquess Course at Woburn is an attackable Par 72, which is too short by modern day standards. Tree-lined fairways will make for double bogeys aplenty, but ball-striking strategists will love the course, which should see plenty of birdies over the opening couple of days. The course will be receptive enough for shot-makers.

Four players have made the portfolio this week: Matt Fitzpatrick 35/1, Byeung-Hun An 35/1, Paul Dunne 80/1 and David Lipsky 150/1.

Some weeks if you picked them based on their outfits Thursday you'd do as well...

I'm finding this week particularly hard to read. Maybe it's the return to tree-lined after linksy, maybe it's the weather at the weekend, but I'm thinking I'll just put a few quid on a First round leader and keep something back til it unfolds a little. Some players I fancy for it are a bit short priced for my liking, product of a relatively evenly matched field imo...
 
Gone with Soren Kjeldsen 25/1 win and Felipe Aguilar 100/1 each way for the British Masters this week, tempted with Chris Wood who's been playing well recently.
 
I am big in to Ross Fisher this week. I have always likened Woburns courses to Wentworth and although they are a bight tighter I still think there's some correlation. Fisher loves Wentworth and has previous experience of Woburn's courses so 200/1 is big odds. I also fancy Padraig Harrington to be up there this week and finally James Morrison whose going about nicely without landing anything yet so will be on him again.
 
No official bets as such but like the look of Fitzpatrick, Jimenez, Canizares and Graeme Storm. Should be a great week, good luck everyone.
 
Lets test the curse...

First round leaders:

Karlberg 60/1
Colsaerts 66/1
Aphibarnrat 60/1
and, for a laugh
Kruger 250/1 (I have my reasons. lol).

I'm not telling my tournament bets, just in case ;)
 
Ill post my tournament outrights - makes no difference whether i do or don't, only that come Sunday i can bask in all glory, such as Jaidee a couple of weeks ago!!

Lee Westwood 50/1
Gregory Bourdy 90/1
Tyrell Hatton 90/1

Presidents Cup

Internationals outright 9/4

And finally a daft £20 double to watch in the morning after i record it thru the early hours!
Scott/Matsuyama to beat Watson/Holmes 11/10
Oosty/Grace to beat Kuchar/Reed 11/10
 
Got a pleasant surprise after golf this afternoon as two birdies on the last two holes by Fitzpatrick saw my bet on him as first round leader come in. Also had Kjeldsen and he had a share of second so was in with a double shout. Won't mention how my other three of Donaldson, Aphibarnrat and Olesen fared but pleased with the win.

What sort of odds do you get for 1st round leader?

4 out of the 6 I backed have missed the cut :rofl:

Another is 7 shots off the lead with only the Barnrat giving me any hope over the weekend. Might have to go chasing over the last two rounds. :D
 
Oh the start of a new PGA Tour season. Only seems a fortnight or so since the last one! The Frys.com Open at it's new home of Silverado is an interesting tournament to kick-off 2015/16. The tournament traditionally favours players who have a feel for the west coast and whom can make plenty of birdies and putt really well. You can certainly categorise previous winners such as Molder, Blixt (a roookie at the time), Walker and Bae as hungry as the former 3 had never won on Tour and Bae's win last year was his first in 15 months.

The course has classical over tones and isn't a gimme, with pretty fast and undulating greens. Getting close to pins is not easy and yet again it ultimately turns into a putting contest to both convert and make pars - putting from 8 feet and in was notorious tricky last term.

So I'm going with 3 players this week: Brooks Koepka who must be hungry to cement his Ryder Cup spot as soon as possible. Loves the Frys.com and has contended on both outings which is hardly surprising with his all-round talent and ability to G4G so accurately. He opened at 22s in places and is now as short as 16s. I managed to grab 18s.

Other than Brooks, I'm sticking with Justin Thomas who again will be motivated to go-well after the disappointments of Conway Farms. This is a distinct step-down and at some point he'll feel comfortable enough to get the job done. The early 40s evaporated so I'm on at 35s.

Finally Matt Jones who I have to call right at some point! Can put on poa annua greens well and he's had a strong 2015, which I'm sure he'd love to cap with a win and a move into the OWGR Top 50. 70/1 is adequate.

Personally I wouldn't touch Bae (pre tournament) as I feel that his nightmare on the 18th in last weeks Presidents Cup on home soil may have left it's mark. He might prove me wrong and come out all guns blazing but I would avoid at least until he has one round under his belt.
