I am all about the sites having PGA odds boosts every week! If they do, I will continue to break them down as well. PGA betting is something I started a few years back and really enjoy. All you need is to hit one winner to have a great year, depending upon the price. Last year, obviously, I picked more than a few winners. I am going to list the other bets I continue to make of top 20’s, top 10’s, etc. I had only been listing my outrights, but I will now list everything.
PGA
Last year, I had plenty of success just buying top end golfers when their prices dipped. When I had DJ that was the highest number, he had been to win an event in a while. I did the same thing with Bryson at the U.S. Open. Am I a golf expert? Of course not. Nevertheless, I do read everything on Numberball.com. Does my opinion and wagers lineup with whom they like every week? No, in fact it occasionally does, but not that often.
I have this problem where I cannot stop betting on Bryson. He is just sitting there at 20/1 taunting me, with this number. It has been extremely rare to see someone with Bryson’s ability being listed any higher than around 12/1 or 14/1 in any field. This week we are going to take some shots on some higher numbers. It is a no-cut event, where Justin Thomas always seems to win. I was all about Justin Thomas earlier in the week, but have backed off. JT has had some family things happen and I thought his number would be higher since he played so badly last week.
PGA Wagers
Will Zalatoris 70/1 (DK)
Will Zalatoris Top 10 +550 (DK)
Collin Morikawa 45/1 (DK)
Bryson 20/1 (DK – As a friend said, “Death, taxes, and you betting Bryson.”)
PGA Odds Boosts You Should Consider Betting
DJ to win or tie his first round matchup with Brooks and Berger +130 (FD)
DJ is listed at +105 to win his group today, so this is a boost. Those of you that are new to golf betting need to realize that yes, all three players in this group are a dog. This is a decent boost considering you get the betting favorite of the entire tournament. I am in.
John Rahm to win by 2 or more shots +1600 (Fox Bet)
What is this? Not only does Rahm have to win, he has to win by two shots? Pass.
All to finish top ten Xander/DJ/Rory +850 (Fox Bet)
DJ is -150 to top ten.
Xander is +138 to top ten.
Rory is +180 to top ten.
Yeah, so this should pay around +1010 for them all to make the top ten at their current numbers. Pass.
Cam Smith to be top Australian +400 (Fox Bet)
Adam Scott and Cam Smith are listed as co-favorites to be top Australian at +300. This is a boost. Smith is actually 60/1 to win while Scott is 66/1 to win. Add this up and it is a solid boost. You get a better number on the person who is a slight favorite, or in this case has better winning odds. I am in.
