Tiger Woods remains favourite in US Masters betting
Published on 23/03/2011 10:36
Tiger Woods is clinging on to favouritism for the 2011 US Masters despite not winning on tour since 2009. His personal problems have been well documented over the last year or so, but when it comes to this tournament punters seem to retain the belief that arguably the greatest golfer ever seen will prevail and walk away wearing his fifth green jacket.
Currently trading at 8.00 with Stan James, Ladbrokes and Coral bookmakers his recent record at Augusta certainly bares the…
Martin Kaymer could become World Number One
Published on 26/10/2010 16:06
Just when Martin Kaymer thought things couldn't get any better the news arrives that either a win or a second place finish at the Andalucia Valderrama Masters on Sunday will propel him to the number one spot in World Golf, overtaking none other than Tiger Woods.
In what has proved a nightmare year for Tiger, how ironic it would be if he finally lost his number one spot on Halloween.
Quoted at a best priced 13/2 with Stan James to win this week, the young German has not…

Published on 05/10/2010 15:06
What a week for our Golf tipsters at the 2010 Ryder Cup, with 10/1, 11/2 and 10/11 winners in various markets, so before looking at our Alfred Dunhill Links suggestions take a look at last weeks tips.
Ian Poulter looks tremendous value at 10/1 to be Europe’s leading points scorer at the 2010 Ryder Cup in October and we suggest a strong each-way punt on the man from Hertfordshire. (Dead-Heat with Luke Donald)

Tiger Woods looks the value in Ryder Cup 'Top American' betting odds
Published on 28/09/2010 11:23
It's not often you can get odds of 11/2 for Tiger Woods in a twelve-runner field, but that's what Stan James are offering for the World No.1 to register the most points for team USA in the Ryder Cup this week.
Admittedly Tiger doesn't boast the best record in this event over previous years, but that was usually at the end of a long-hard season where he'd been mopping up event after event and would have came into this contest with one eye on a deserved winter…
Can Ian Poulter lead Europe to Ryder Cup victory?
Published on 14/09/2010 11:14
Ian Poulter looks tremendous value at 10/1 to be Europe’s leading points scorer at the 2010 Ryder Cup in October and we suggest a strong each-way punt on the man from Hertfordshire.
His record in match-play golf is outstanding, he has won both his singles matches when competing in previous Ryder Cup’s and also added this years Accenture World Matchplay title (where the top sixty-four players in the world compete) to his list of eleven professional wins.

Corey Pavin announces Ryder Cup wildcard picks
Published on 08/09/2010 10:54
The only slight surprise to come from Corey Pavin’s wildcard picks was the inclusion of young Ricky Fowler who joins the more obvious choices of Tiger Woods, Zach Johnson and Stewart Cink to do battle with Europe at Celtic Manor next month.
Fowler, at just 21 years of age, will be playing in the Ryder Cup just one year after representing his country in the Walker Cup and despite three second places has yet to win an event on the US tour.
Tiger Woods improved form over…
Molinari brothers make Europe’s Ryder Cup team
Published on 01/09/2010 09:36
On an exciting final day at Gleneagles, Italy’s Edoardo Molinari produced the goods that not only landed him the Johnnie Walker Championship, but also one of Colin Montgomerie’s wildcard picks for the 2010 Ryder Cup.
With three holes to play the gritty Italian needed to birdie them all to take the title and did so in a style that made it impossible for ‘Captain Monty’ to rule him out of a trip to Wales in October. This was his second title of the season …
What odds on Tiger Woods making the USA Ryder Cup team?
Published on 23/08/2010 17:06
With eight of Corey Pavin’s U.S. Ryder Cup team now finalised and the name of Tiger Woods missing from his list the attention now turns to whether he will be one of the Captain’s wildcard picks.
Although his recent form is a major cause for concern, you still can’t obtain odds any better than 1/20 with Betfair that he’ll be teeing it up at Celtic Manor in October.
Yes his ‘driving’ has been wild and he hasn’t been picking up as many…
Tiny Tim can land the Verizon Heritage Classic
Published on 13/04/2010 13:58
The PGA Tour leaves Georgia after the first major of the season and makes it’s way to the truly beautiful setting of Hilton Head Island, home of the Verizon Heritage Classic. Played on the Harbour Town Golf Links course it really is one of the most picturesque venues on tour.
Past results here would indicate that we should be looking for somebody that wasn’t in the heat of the battle at Augusta last week, but can boast some solid early season form and the ability…
2010 US Masters Odds - See Our Each Way Value Bets
Published on 02/04/2010 09:55
The US Masters gets under way on Thursday 8th April and all eyes will be on Tiger Woods as he makes his return to competitive golf after almost five months absence. Quite how he’ll perform is anybody’s guess, but it’s my opinion that he’ll struggle badly and before I touch on my outright selections I must point you in the direction of a bet well worth a second look.
Tiger is used to being hounded by the worlds media, but that is usually in a positive…
Kim can reign supreme in Houston
Published on 30/03/2010 18:22
The Shell Houston Open at the Redstone Golf Club in Texas represents a final chance for the worlds top golfers to work on their games before the US Masters next week. Defending champion Paul Casey, in-form Ernie Els and the enigmatic Phil Mickelson are just some of the players on view, but we will be looking elsewhere for this week’s winner.
My number one pick is the talented if unpredictable Anthony Kim. With golf’s first major just around the corner the man from…
MICKELSON TO WARM UP FOR MASTERS WITH A WIN
Published on 24/03/2010 10:48
The US tour continues on it’s Florida stretch this week at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and with most of the world’s top stars competing it promises to be an exciting tournament. The par 72 layout at the Bay Hill Club in Orlando has been tinkered with since last year and word on the grapevine is that it will suit players with incredible imagination and a great short game.
Therefore step forward Phil Mickelson, a man that fits all the criteria needed to win here.…
STEWART TO CINK HIS RIVALS
Published on 17/03/2010 10:02
This week the PGA Tour heads to Florida for the Transitions Championship, played on the 7,340 yard Copperhead Golf Course.
Rated by the pros as one of the best courses on tour it is said to be a ‘thinking mans’ golf course and last years winner Retief Goosen would certainly come into that category.
With that in mind my first choice this week would be the 2009 British Open winner Stewart Cink. With a couple of top tens under his belt already this season and a…
WGC - CA CHAMPIONSHIP
Published on 09/03/2010 12:09
The Blue Monster course in Florida, USA is the scene for the WGC- CA golf tournament and with nine of the worlds top ten players taking part it should prove to be a real thriller.
This is a very challenging course nowadays that measures 7,291 yards and has water surrounding most parts, hence the name Blue Monster. Two vital factors strike me as being essential in finding this weeks winner - look for a player with length off the tee and currently playing at the top of their…
