This week I'm skipping the Shell Houston Open, and betting on the first Major of the season. It’s the LPGA's ANA Inspiration, formerly known as the Kraft Nabisco. The first Women’s Major of the year.
The Spiv is back with the inside track....The WGC World Match Play is one of my favourite events of the year. I love Match Play. The only problem is that there isn’t enough of it around on the Tour. This makes it difficult to place a bet. An out of form player with a strong competitive nature can easily win this one.
The Spiv has been in the money two of the last three weeks. He's found some tremendous value this week at the Arnold Palmer Invitational...
Viktor Hovland is looking to defend his title at the World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba having won with an impressive twenty-under total last year. The field is looking a little stronger this year with a number of the big guns looking to take the spoils at the El Camaleon Golf Club in Mexico.
They have been playing golf at Carnoustie as far back as the 16th century and the classic links layout is sure to challenge golf's best players this week at the AIG Women's Open. The weather is looking variable and the Spiv has his views as to who offers the best value in the betting stakes.
It only seems like yesterday that we were cheering Lefty as he stormed to victory at the US PGA Championship and here we are on the eve of the next Major. This is only the second time Torrey Pines has hosted the U.S. Open and as ever, picking a winner is as tricky.
It was a relative surprise when Hideki Matsuyama picked up his first major title at The Masters and it is no easy task picking the winner of the PGA Championship this week. Kiawah Island throws up many challenges to the best in the world, especially if the wind starts blowing.
We didn’t have to wait long for the to come around again. It is less than 150 days since DJ holed the putt that earned him his first Green Jacket. Augusta is going to be a different proposition from last November. The winner aside, It is a brave man that takes much note of the performances in the 2020 event to educate his choices this week. There are so many factors in
It’s finally here! The final men's Major of the season. The Masters in Augusta is taking place in the Autumn for the first time ever and let’s face it, we are all excited. The betting market will be excited too. Skybet is so excited that they are offering eleven places on all Each Way bets. Dustin Johnson 17/2 (PaddyPower) Brooks Koepka 16/1 (Bet365) Tyrrell Hatton 28/1 (William Hill)
Great to deliver a winner again for GolfPunk readers; nervy stuff but Paul Casey held on to win at 26/1 at last week’s Valspar Championship!!
Great to see Rory McIlroy winning the Players Championship last week. Our selection Tommy Fleetwood led well into the final round but faded to finish 5th. Two televised events this week but the EuropeanTour event low key so we concentrate on the Valspar Championship on PGA tour.
We hit the cross bar again last week with Adrian Otaegui 45/1 losing in the final of Australia super six. Then over in America at the Genesis Open both our selections Adam Scott 38/1 and Marc Leishman 55/1 got to within 1 shot of the lead in final round only to lose out to the slowest player in world golf J B Holmes, the PGA need to act fast to eradicate slow play as it will stop people watching the game!!
