Deutsche Bank Championship Odds & Betting Tips

The Fed Ex Cup is down to 100 players this week as the tour heads to Boston for the Deutsche Bank Championship. Tiger Woods had 2 good rounds last week and heads the betting but there are value odds available as ever. Genie is here with his weekly golf betting tips guide.

Key Betting Information

The event takes place at the TPC Boston and has done since its inception in 2003. Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Steve Stricker and Adam Scott are the former winners in the field. The course is a par 71 and is 7,214 yards long. It was shortened by Brad Faxon by 200 yards 2 years ago. There is a 600 yard par 5 and a 485 yard par 4 but otherwise not being the longest of hitters should not affect your chances greatly.

Most bookmakers are paying a quarter the odds for the top 5 places.

Players To Watch

Tiger is slowly coming back to form but his inconsistency is still to great to consider the 8/1 on offer. Phil Mickelson is really struggling of late also.

Let’s move our attention to Jeff Overton. 5 top 3 finishes on tour this year have shown that this guy is the real deal. He underwhelmed last week at the Barlclays and at the PGA Championship. Jeff is available at juicy odds of 70/1 with Bet365 and Victor Chandler. Give Jeff a mid range iron and you won’t find many more accurate. Jeff ranks 3rd on tour in 2010 for ‘Par 4 birdie or better’ ranking. He is 7th on the money ranking list for 2010 despite not having a win to his name.

Genie’s second betting tip this weekend is Nick Watney. Probably the silkiest putting stroke on tour and we are looking at a player who has been in excellent form of late. A bad day at the office on the final day of the PGA Championship can be forgiven and let’s just hope it won’t happen again. Watney is available at odds of 60/1 with Paddy Power and is strongly fancied to contend this weekend.

Accuracy and good putting is the order of the day on this course and 2 Englishmen tick both boxes. Ian Poulter and Luke Donald showed glimpses of their promise last Sunday and expect the birdiefest to continue. Donald is the more consistent performer of the 2 and is having a fantastically consistent season. He has had his share of leaderboard time this year and is worth a look in the e/w market at 50/1. The 80/1 available on Poulter from Ladbrokes has turned my head here. Poults is starting to look like his old self after a poor Summer.

The Barclays Odds & Betting Tips

[:en]

The Barclays Odds & Betting Tips

The Barclays is the main golf betting event of the week and takes place at the Ridgewood Country Club in New Jersey. Tiger Woods is in the field, as are all the big names. Genie looks at the odds and offers his golf betting tips.

Key Betting Information

The Barclays was only held once before at this course, in 2008, when Vijay Singh was triumphant, beating Sergio Garcia and Kevin Sutherland in a playoff. The winning score that weekend was -8. The course is quite long at around the 7300 yards mark. Sunshine and little wind is predicted by the weather man from Thursday onward. Withe the Ryder Cup on the horizon a few candidates will be eager to make a keen impression; Luke Donald, Paul Casey, Padraig Harrington and Justin Rose spring to mind.

Most bookmakers are paying a quarter the odds for the top 5 places.

Players to Watch

Il Pato, better known as Angel Cabrera is the dark horse this weekend. Cabbers was very unlucky not to be do better than 19th place in 2008, the only other time the event was played here. He had a bit of bad luck which cost him a treble bogey at the par 4  5th on day 3 and then 3 bogeys on the front 9 in the final round saw him finish 4 shots adrift in a very bunched field. Angel has been a bit of a mixed bag in 2010, recently missing the cut at the PGA Tour. He has shown glimmers of his talent this year with a 3rd place at Quail Hollow, top 10 at the SBS and top 25’s in the US Open and The Masters. The tough courses tend to bring out the best in Cabbers, particularly when his opponents find the greens as tough as he does and you can expect to see tough greens this weekend. Cabrera is available at odds of 125/1 with Ladbrokes.

Phil Mickelson should go well this weekend. Phil will be keen to rubber stamp his claim to the number 1 spot and will feed off a lively New Jersey crowd. Expect loads of high 5’s and lots of entertainment from Lefty this weekend. A win at The Barlays would put the shine on another good year for the most likeable man in golf. Mickelson is available at 12/1 with almost every bookmaker.

If my name was Corey Pavin then I’d have a place for JB Holmes on my Ryder Cup Team. He is a formidable fourball player and has had a very solid, if not spectacular year. I’m sure that J.B. Holmes is in Pavin’s thoughs and a fine finish at Ridgewood would do him the world of good. If JB can utilise his power at the right times around this course then he should go close. A final round 66 in 2008 was too little too late but it does show what he is capable of. You can back JB with most bookmakers at odds of 80/1.

Jeremy Chapman Tips

Steve Palmer Tips

Steve Palmer’s golf betting tips for The Barclays:

Paul Casey 2pts e/w @ 30/1 with Bet365 or Paddy Power.
Hunter Mahan 1.5pts e/w @ 35/1 with Bet365.
Adam Scott 1pt e/w @ 66/1 with Ladbrokes, Paddy Power, Will Hill, Bet365, VC Bet.
Stewart Cink 1pt e/w @ 80/1 with Paddy Power.
Ricky Fowler 1pt e/w @ 100/1 with Bet365.

Steve Palmer’s golf betting tips on the Johnnie Walker Championship are:
Ross Fisher 3pts e/w @ 16/1 with Bet365.
Nicolas Colsaerts 1pt e/w @ 40/1 with Paddy Power.
Gregory Havret 1pt e/w @ 40/1 with Ladbrokes.
Shane Lowry 1pt e/w @ 50/1 with Paddy Power or Bet365.
Thomas Bjorn 0.5pt e/w 80/1 with Bet365.

Betting Tips Summary

Genie is going for the bangers in the golf betting this weekend. There’ll be high odds, birdies a plenty and entertainment guaranteed at very good value in the €100 staking plan at The Barclays:

€20 e/w Angel Cabrera at 125/1 with Ladbrokes

€30 win on Phil Mickelson at 12/1 with VC Bet

€15 e/w on J.B. Holmes at 80/1 with Bet365

Il Pato, better known as Angel Cabrera is the dark horse this weekend. Cabbers was very unlucky not to be do better than 19th place in 2008, the only other time the event was played here. He had a bit of bad luck which cost him a treble bogey at the par 4  5th on day 3 and then 3 bogeys on the front 9 in the final round saw him finish 4 shots adrift in a very bunched field. Angel has been a bit of a mixed bag in 2010, recently missing the cut at the PGA Tour. He has shown glimmers of his talent this year with a 3rd place at Quail Hollow, top 10 at the SBS and top 25’s in the US Open and The Masters. The tough courses tend to bring out the best in Cabbers, particularly when his opponents find the greens as tough as he does and you can expect to see tough greens this weekend. Cabrera is available at odds of 125/1 with Ladbrokes.

Phil Mickelson should go well this weekend. Phil will be keen to rubber stamp his claim to the number 1 spot and will feed off a lively New Jersey crowd. Expect loads of high 5’s and lots of entertainment from Lefty this weekend. A win at The Barlays would put the shine on another good year for the most likeable man in golf. Mickelson is available at 12/1 with almost every bookmaker.

If my name was Corey Pavin then I’d have a place for JB Holmes on my Ryder Cup Team. He is a formidable fourball player and has had a very solid, if not spectacular year. I’m sure that J.B. Holmes is in Pavin’s thoughs and a fine finish at Ridgewood would do him the world of good. If JB can utilise his power at the right times around this course then he should go close. A final round 66 in 2008 was too little too late but it does show what he is capable of. You can back JB with most bookmakers at odds of 80/1.

The Barclays Odds & Betting Tips

The Barclays is the main golf betting event of the week and takes place at the Ridgewood Country Club in New Jersey. Tiger Woods is in the field, as are all the big names. Genie looks at the odds and offers his golf betting tips.

Key Betting Information

The Barclays was only held once before at this course, in 2008, when Vijay Singh was triumphant, beating Sergio Garcia and Kevin Sutherland in a playoff. The winning score that weekend was -8. The course is quite long at around the 7300 yards mark. Sunshine and little wind is predicted by the weather man from Thursday onward. Withe the Ryder Cup on the horizon a few candidates will be eager to make a keen impression; Luke Donald, Paul Casey, Padraig Harrington and Justin Rose spring to mind.

Most bookmakers are paying a quarter the odds for the top 5 places.

PGA Championship Odds & Betting Tips

PGA Championship Odds & Betting Tips

The PGA Championship takes place this weekend at the Straits Course from the Whistling Straits country club in Wisconsin. Genie previews the betting and picks out the best odds and tips in his golf betting tips article for those that want to read them. Tiger Woods is playing but unusually is only second in the betting, as he faces a fight to hold on to his world number 1 spot.

This is the tournament that has given us winners such as Mark Brooks, Shaun Micheel, Rich Beem and YE Yang over the years so don’t be entirely surprised if it not a household name that get’s his mitts on the Wannamaker trophy come Sunday.

Key Betting Information

The PGA Championship has a handful of courses in rotation. Whistling Straits was the venue in 2004 and, since then, has not held a PGA Tour event so course form is somewhat hard to come by. In 2004 Vijay Singh came through after a playoff victory over Di Marco and Leonard. None of the 3 are large hitters but this is a long course, standing at 7507 yards. Phil Mickelson required a birdie on the 72nd hole to go to a playoff in 2004 but could only manage a bogey.

The course was designed to look like a links course from Britain or Ireland and it does just that. It is on the edge of a massive lake so and the wind can gust off the lake. The weather forecast this week is for quite a lot of rain and fair winds. If the wind does pick up look out for extremely straight hitters like Ian Poulter, Ross Fisher, or Sean O’Hair.

Bet365, Paddy Power and VC Bet are all paying a quarter the odds on 6 places at this year’s PGA Championship.

Players To Watch

Tiger’s form has been so bad that I just cannot have any piece of him. At the time of writing the prices for 3 ball tournament bets and mythical match bets have not been published but keep an eye out and, by all means, oppose Woods at will.

43 year old Steve Stricker is a resident of Wisconsin and has never received his overdue plaudits for his golfing prowess. The addition of a major championship would make him a hall of fame cert. He has had his barron spells in the past and does not have a picture perfect swing like an Els or a Singh but any player who relies so heavily on a strong short game can be expected to have some bad spells. Stricker did not take part here in 2004. He was in one of his dry spells and failed to qualify.

Steve has played 14 events this year, made 14 cuts, had 6 top 10’s and claimed victory in 2. Add this to the 11 top ten finishes from 22 starts last year, including 3 wins and you might just find yourself looking at some serious value at 28/1 on a golfer who is in his home state, playing a course that suits his straight shooting and his shortgame masterclass. The 28/1 is currently only available with Bet365.

Genie’s second tip is on the leader in the betting, Phil Mickelson. Phil came close last time out here and has all of the tricks to have a very good run again. A bad day at the office on Sunday can be excused for some horrible driving. He was as entertaining as ever with some of his trick shots to keep himself competitive but he tailed away in the end. Phil will be working with Butch Harmon this week and he’ll be straightening out that driver. The putts just never dropped for Phil last weekend but he is well capable of better. He is the best player in the world at present and 14/1 available from  VC Bet is a worthy value punt.

In a complete tipping list I am going to complete the wheel with possibly the best scrambler in the business (ranking of #1 on tour this year) is Luke Donald. There have been fair questions asked about his abilities to get over the finish line but Donald definitely deserves a look in the e/w market when there are so many firms paying 6 places. On top of a second and 2 thirds in the PGA Tour, Luke has amassed a win and 3 other top 5 finishes in a couple of months spent back in Europe. The boy’s got game and is perhaps the strongest link in the European team in a Ryder Cup year. 50/1 is readily avaiable and I’m having me some of that.

Rory McIlroy 1.5pts e/w @ 18/1 – general

PGA Championship Odds & Betting Tips

The PGA Championship takes place this weekend at the Straits Course from the Whistling Straits country club in Wisconsin. Genie previews the betting and picks out the best odds and tips in his golf betting tips article for those that want to read them. Tiger Woods is playing but unusually is only second in the betting, as he faces a fight to hold on to his world number 1 spot.

This is the tournament that has given us winners such as Mark Brooks, Shaun Micheel, Rich Beem and YE Yang over the years so don’t be entirely surprised if it not a household name that get’s his mitts on the Wannamaker trophy come Sunday.

Key Betting Information

The PGA Championship has a handful of courses in rotation. Whistling Straits was the venue in 2004 and, since then, has not held a PGA Tour event so course form is somewhat hard to come by. In 2004 Vijay Singh came through after a playoff victory over Di Marco and Leonard. None of the 3 are large hitters but this is a long course, standing at 7507 yards. Phil Mickelson required a birdie on the 72nd hole to go to a playoff in 2004 but could only manage a bogey.

The course was designed to look like a links course from Britain or Ireland and it does just that. It is on the edge of a massive lake so and the wind can gust off the lake. The weather forecast this week is for quite a lot of rain and fair winds. If the wind does pick up look out for extremely straight hitters like Ian Poulter, Ross Fisher, or Sean O’Hair.

Bet365, Paddy Power and VC Bet are all paying a quarter the odds on 6 places at this year’s PGA Championship.

Players To Watch

Tiger’s form has been so bad that I just cannot have any piece of him. At the time of writing the prices for 3 ball tournament bets and mythical match bets have not been published but keep an eye out and, by all means, oppose Woods at will.

43 year old Steve Stricker is a resident of Wisconsin and has never received his overdue plaudits for his golfing prowess. The addition of a major championship would make him a hall of fame cert. He has had his barron spells in the past and does not have a picture perfect swing like an Els or a Singh but any player who relies so heavily on a strong short game can be expected to have some bad spells. Stricker did not take part here in 2004. He was in one of his dry spells and failed to qualify.

Steve has played 14 events this year, made 14 cuts, had 6 top 10’s and claimed victory in 2. Add this to the 11 top ten finishes from 22 starts last year, including 3 wins and you might just find yourself looking at some serious value at 28/1 on a golfer who is in his home state, playing a course that suits his straight shooting and his shortgame masterclass. The 28/1 is currently only available with Bet365.

Genie’s second tip is on the leader in the betting, Phil Mickelson. Phil came close last time out here and has all of the tricks to have a very good run again. A bad day at the office on Sunday can be excused for some horrible driving. He was as entertaining as ever with some of his trick shots to keep himself competitive but he tailed away in the end. Phil will be working with Butch Harmon this week and he’ll be straightening out that driver. The putts just never dropped for Phil last weekend but he is well capable of better. He is the best player in the world at present and 14/1 available from  VC Bet is a worthy value punt.

In a complete tipping list I am going to complete the wheel with possibly the best scrambler in the business (ranking of #1 on tour this year) is Luke Donald. There have been fair questions asked about his abilities to get over the finish line but Donald definitely deserves a look in the e/w market when there are so many firms paying 6 places. On top of a second and 2 thirds in the PGA Tour, Luke has amassed a win and 3 other top 5 finishes in a couple of months spent back in Europe. The boy’s got game and is perhaps the strongest link in the European team in a Ryder Cup year. 50/1 is readily avaiable and I’m having me some of that.

Irish Open Odds & Betting Tips

Irish Open Odds & Betting Tips

The 3 Irish Open is being played at Killarney this week and and, Irish stars aside, this is a fairly weak field. Genie looks through the odds to pick out some value betting tips for the waiting punters.

Unfortunately there is no course form to speak of really. The course has not hosted any recent major events for male professional golfers.

Players to Watch

Looking through the form book it is easy to see why Justin Rose is high up in the betting, coming in at joint second favourite, alongside Graeme McDowell, with both a few points higher than Rory McIlroy.

This week though Genie is going for Harrington. Padraig is not having a good season and his performance at the Open Championship was forgettable. What gives me hope though is that Paidi is outwardly saying that he is playing well and that he thinks things are falling into place. A more honest sportsman you will never find and Padraig will call it in black and white more often than not.

Odds of 20/1 on the player with 25 career wins and about twice as many second places in this company is a must bet for Genie. To put this in perspective, he was 25/1 to win the British Open and goes into next month’s PGA Championship best priced at 33/1 against all of the best players in the world, while only a handful of the world’s top 100 players line up this weekend.

Padraig is not completely without form this season. 3rd place at Doral, 5th at the Travelers Championship, 7th at Quail Hollow and an 8th placed finish at the Transitions were all achieved against markedly better company than he is surrounded by this week. Ladbrokes are offering a standout 20/1 about Paidi getting back into the winners enclosure on home soil.

Jeremy Chapman Tips

This week Chapman is looking only at the Greenbrier Classic. His top tip is Nick Watney (1.5pts e/w @25/1). Next best is Brendon De Jonge (1pt e/w at 50/1) and his other selections include JB Holmes (1pt e/w @ 35/1) and Matt Kuchar (0.75pts e/w @ 20/1).

Steve Palmer Tips

Steve Palmer’s Irish Open tips are:

Top Tip: Rory McIlroy (3pts e/w @ 7/1)

Next Best: Ross Fisher (1.5pts e/w @ 20/1)

Other Selections: Darren Clarke (1pt e/w @40/1) and Shane Lowry (1pt e/w @ 45/1)

Betting Tips Summary

This week at Killarney Genie has only 1 player on the betting list. For a €100 staking plan Genie is suggesting:

€50 e/w on Padraig Harrington at 20/1 with Ladbrokes

Note: Paddy Power are paying 6 places and offering odds of 16/1 about the Dubliner reclaiming a title that he last won in 2007.

Open Championship Odds & Betting Tips

Open Championship Odds & Betting Tips

The Open Championship is being held at St Andrews golf course in 2010. The odds and betting takes on a quite unusual shape this year, with Tiger Woods not the hot favourite of years gone by. Genie has checked out the form and has a few key tips to steer you in the right direction for making your picks in the British Open this weekend.

Key Betting Tips

St Andrews is a wonderful test of golfing prowess. As with all links golf, if the wind picks up then the low hitters and straight hitters should come to the fore. There are a few drivable par 4’s but power is not necessarily a requirement. Decision making is the key skill that will set apart the leaders this weekend. Tiger Woods barely took out his driver when winning around here in 2005 and an iron off the tee will be the weapon of choice for many of the field this week. The bunkers at St Andrews are infamous and an expert sand game, combined with a samll bit of luck, will be beneficial at soem stage this weekend. Lee Westwood is a below average bunker player among the pro ranks and he would be well advised to stay out of the pot bunkers at all costs. The winner will simply have to putt well and scramble tidily when called upon to get up and down from 20 yards.

The weather forecast for this week points to plenty of rain. Little wind is expected on Thursday but a gusty weekend is expected from Friday. Look for the straight shooters in the wind.

Another key betting tip is that Paddy Power are paying 7 places in the each way market so don’t be afraid to sacrifice a few points in the price for the extra place.

Players to Watch

Having won the Open on the last 2 occasions that it was held here, Tiger Woods is a deserving favourite. Having said that his form of late has been extremely poor by his lofty standards and this is not the course to forgive his swing imperfections. 11/2 is best avoided.

I expect a strong challenge from the Ireland and Britain this weekend. Padraig Harrington is in town and we all know how much he likes a British Open. He wears the label of ‘grinder’ as a badge of honour and Padraig will fight for every shot. If the wind starts to howl then Padraig could be your dawg. The 25/1 available from Ladbrokes and VC Bet is reasonable.

There is one man who tends to keep it together in the wind better than anyone else. The bad news is that he is not having a good season but the good news is that he finished 5th last time the Open was played at St. Andrews. The extra good news is that he has had 6 top ten finishes at the british open in the past 9 years. He has shown some glimmer of form at the US Open with a 22nd place finish. He steadily improved the more the wind blew. His name is Sergio Garcia and he comes into the tournament at odds of 100/1 with Ladbrokes. I’m absolutely having a piece of that.

An underestimated Open performer is Kenny Perry. The Kentuckian has turned down invitations to play in previous years because he is a creature of habit and likes to stay around Kentucky if he can. Kenny has played the tournament 5 times in the past 7 years and has finished in the top 20 on 3 of those occasions. The last visit to St Andrews resulted in a very respectable 11th place finish. Kenny has had some highly publicised eye trouble this year but he has no concerns over that and top 20 finishes in the states, coupled with a respectable 33rd place in Pebble Beach mean that at odds of 150/1 he could be worth a small e/w punt. Kenny hits the ball high which is not ideal in the wind but he does draw the ball which should be easier to control.

Camilo Villegas hits a low ball and putts well. Another whose form has tailed off of late but I have always seen this as his most likely major win, if indeed he is to claim one. Camilo should run close and is worth a look in the each way market at 80/1 with Ladbrokes.

Open Championship Betting Tips Summary

Here is the verdict of the Genie for those betting on the Open Championship at St Andrews. Odds quoted are at the time of publication. For a €100 staking plan:

€20 e/w on Sergio Garcia at 100/1 with Ladbrokes

€15 win on Padraig Harrington at 25/1 with Ladbrokes

€7.50 e/w on Kenny Perry at 150/1 with Bet365 (paying 6 places)

€7.50 e/w on Camilo Villegas at 80/1 with Ladbrokes
