    The Open Championship

    in Golf Betting Tips

    Posted

    After the two day stage, still plenty to play for. From a personal point of view, slightly frustrating to see Cameron Smith in the lead as if you look at the PGA Tour SG: Approach the Green stats, he is literally the next player on my shortlist after Collin Morikawa lol.

    Of the action I have seen so far, holing your fair share of long putts is definitely going to be key. And at the rate of scoring so far the winning score could easily have to be 20 under par and better.

    Any thoughts on the likelihood of a player shooting 61 or lower? My mate (more into golf than me, playing and betting wise) had taken 7/2 with PP and was amazed when I spotted it at 8/1 at Uni Bet. Lowest score spread is 63-63.5.

    I’ve had a bit on the 8/1, feels a touch generous.

    On the previews I've followed there is a lot of people thinking along the lines of the course could be easy to play this year with the dry, warm, very little wind conditions that combined with a lot of driveable par 4 holes is probably why PP are being a lot more cautious than unibet.

    Right, the final Major of the Year. First of all, although a completely different course to last year, I do feel that the playing conditions will be very similar to last year's Open I.e. dry, warm and very little wind. So I feel last year's Open form could be pretty valid in regards to that.

    That all said, here are my squad of 6 for St. Andrews, prices from Bet365 as a reference:

    Scottie Scheffler 20/1

    (Good form in the Majors, missed cut at Scottish Open last week, decent form at last year's Open)

    Rory McIlroy 10/1

    (Good form in the Majors this year, good St. Andrews form, purposely avoided Scottish Open to focus on this.)

    Jon Rahm 20/1

    (Weakest form out of all my selections, decent form at last year's Open.)

    Will Zalatoris 30/1

    (Good form in the Majors this year, missed cut at Scottish Open, top quality SG: Approach stats, was playing well in last year's Open until having to withdraw injured tackling some meaty rough over exuberantly lol.)

    Hideki Matsuyama 45/1

    (Good form in the Majors this year, missed cut at Scottish Open, top notch SG: Approach stats)

    Collin Morikawa 30/1

    (Good form in the Majors this year, missed cut at Scottish Open, top quality SG: Approach stats, last year's Open winner.)

     

    So as you can see, heavily plowing in with the angles I've mentioned on this thread. The beauty of all sports betting and games is there are many many angles utilised by many different people in achieving the beautiful feeling of the win. Time will tell whether my angles were successful this time around.

    Whatever you decide to pick best of luck in your quest for victory.

    Place for bets, thoughts and musings on the upcoming and 4th major of the year The Open Championship at St. Andrews

    Early thoughts have to be the 'form' player is clearly Xander Schauffele. Not looked at any prices yet though I would imagine he is short enough.

    As alluded to on the Scottish Open thread, last year's winner Collin Morikawa finished 71st in the Scottish Open before going onto win so it maybe worthwhile looking for players who played average at the Renaissance Club.

    I will be personally looking for players who have played well in the last 9 to 10 weeks (top 6 finish etc.), previous Open Championship form a bonus and look at who has decent Strokes gained approach the green stats as the cherry on top of the cake.

    Yeah I noticed Harding, always liked backing him but can't trust them for these types of tournaments,  maybe the big tournies, not that the Scottish Open isn't one though, just think most may have eye on Open next week.

    Dad has went Burns and Hovland.

    I agree completely mate. A great example being last year's Scottish Open, where a certain Collin Morikawa finished in 71st place then duly went and made merry in The Open the following week.

    Just going for Scottish Open, just used up all free bets. 

    Got a sneaky suspicion about Rahm, he doesnt merit the favourite for me, but think this might be his time. 

    Also went Thomas and Fitzpatrick. 

    Also. Went ew on Rose, fox and hatton. 

     

    See that the LIV defectors are there too, probably outwith the majors not sure how much determination will be in their play, so probably. for the most part will stay away from them, mind you getting confused who is and isnt on tours. 

    Agreed mate. This whole LIV malarkey is just well confusing. I heard first of all, that the LIV players were banned from playing in the Scottish Open, then I saw the playing field seeing Grace, Poulter and Harding with tee times and it turns out they have put some kind of legal injunction in against their bans and can now play.

    Harding currently sits in about 3rd place as I type finishing his first round on 5 under. It's definitely making the game of golf look like a circus at the moment.

    Really good field for this event, which it rightly deserves, thanks to the co-alignment deal between  the DP World Tour and PGA Tour.

    My 6 man squad are as follows, with prices from Bet365 as a reference:

    Aaron Rai 70/1

    Justin Rose 70/1

    Sam Burns 30/1

    Tyrrell Hatton 50/1

    Sebastian Soderberg 300/1

    Cameron Smith 28/1

     

    Best of luck to all.

    Might regret not going on fox too as he's going to go close.

    Hopefully come off for my Dad.

    Brave performance from Fox. The middle rounds of two and three just left him with a bit too much to do.
