What odds would you expect? (Golf bet)

[Deleted member 18121]

Hi all

The course record at my place was a 5 under 67 off the whites....the lad that set it was 14 at the time.

I played in the club championship at the beginning of July and off the blues the same lad hit a 5 under 67 again....this time age of 16.

So I thought to myself....what odds would I be offered for him to win a European Tour/PGA tour/major at same point in his life.

One bookie could not quote me. Another has come back and offered me some odds and a restricted bet size........ what odds do you think they offered me?

I expect the price will be in the low 100s and limited to twenty quid or similar, the one thing that is for sure is that you will be getting horrible value for your bet!

Saw someone back his 2 year old to play cricket for England at 150s recently, just horrendous

About 150/1. One bookie was stung by the McIroy bets.

I'm not sure how they come to that price.

Haha that is absolutely stinking.... I would honestly expect 150-200/1 (which is still stinking IMO)
