Top Tips 2009

Posted on January 6th, 2009 by admin

And so it has arrived, my first betting post with tips to aid you before you place your bets. Having looked through various odds and websites I have come up with what I think are some very interesting tips (remember that this is simply my opinion and no liability will be accepted for lost best) for the year ahead so without further delay, here they are:

Adam Scott has won on the PGA Tour in the past 6 years (although admittedly, his 2005 win in The Nissan Open was in a 36 hole shortened event). Therefore at 5/4, he stands out as great value to continue this winning streak on the PGA Tour in 2009 . Other worthwhile bets here have to be Boo Weekly at 2/1 and J.B.Holmes at 4/1. If you are really feeling like a punt, you might consider placing a treble on all of these to win in 2009 on the USPGA Tour.

The Royal Trophy, which pits Europe against Asia in similar style to the Ryder Cup takes place from 9-11th January and Europe at 8/11 would appear to represent good value considering Europe have won the previous two stagings of the event.
Rory McIlroy came oh so close last year and has had a fine start to the Race to Dubai this season. If he can sharpen up his putting, I believe he can win a European event in 2009 at odds of 10/11. He has to improve his putting in my opinion however before this will happen. I would be very surprised if Graeme MacDowell at 10/11 and Robert Karlsson at 4/7 especially, do not emerge as winners on Tour this year. Again, you could combine these tips to make up your own doubles or trebles - Click the following link for more odds http://bettingzone.oddschecker.com/golf/season-special-bets/race-to-dubai/to-win-a-european-tour-event
The Joburg Open takes place from 8-11th January and popular outside bets being touted are Mark Murless and Tyrone Mordt. Mark Murless is the local lad and has yet to finish outside the top 5 in his two previous starts at this event so at 80/1 is surely worth a gamble. This is also Tyrone Mordts home track so he will know the course well. After a decent top 10 finish at the Dunhill event in December, he is also carrying a bit of form. Odds of 125/1 are staggering. I would be a little more conservative however and back him at 15/1 for a top 10 finish, if you are looking for a punt. Charl Schwartzel at 12/1 is a player I like and certainly worth serious consideration. http://www.oddschecker.com/golf/joburg-open/win-market

Well thats it for now. Tomorrow I will be posting my tips for the first US tournament of the year, The Mercedes-Benz Championship as well as my “top top tip for 2009″ so be sure to check the site. I will also post a quick intro and overview of the professional tournaments taking place this week including previous winners, full odds etc.

If you have any bets that you think are screaming good value or disagree with any of my tips, please leave a comment. Nothing like a good debate. If you would like to contact me, please email wegetgolf@gmail.com

Happy punting!
