Be careful when it comes to believing betting content. The constant chatter about Wyndham Clark’s elevation experience can be overwhelming. There’s no doubt Clark is a worthwhile pick playing in his hometown at 6,000 feet above sea level. Believe it or not, he’s not the only player who has that kind of real altitude competitive Read more…

For those keeping track, we’ve now correctly predicted the last three winners on the PGA Tour. Read more…
The Monday Odds Drop is a value statement. Who in the field represents the best value for winning? Conversely, who is worth very little value. The meaning behind this conversation is often overlooked by golf bettors. Most weeks, everyone just fires bets on the favorite. Hideki Matsuyama (28-1) was pretty far from the favorite last Read more…
We are headed into the final stretch of the PGA Tour season – the FedEx Cup Playoffs. Three more chances to cash a winner. Or, in other words, three more weeks of betting on everyone not named Scottie Scheffler and watching Scottie Scheffler win. No offense to Scottie, but let’s hope that’s not the case. Read more…
We have three weeks left of premium PGA TOUR golf left in 2024. The FedEx Cup regular season is over and now we head to Memphis for the FedEx St. Jude Championship. The top 70 on the season long points list will fight against elimination as only the top 50 move on to the BMW Read more…
The Wyndham Championship might get plagued by weather, but in all the fuss over wave advantages and wind, do not lose sight of what is most important this week. The previous 10 winners have gained a combined 12 strokes (on average) versus the field with their flatstick and iron game. Sedgefield Country Club is a Read more…

It is going to be a wild week at the Wyndham Championship. A field of 156 players heads to Sedgefield Country Club to compete in the final regular season event of the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup season. The top 70 and ties will advance to the playoffs in Memphis, but not before a serious test Read more…
There are six players sitting atop the odds board for the 3M Open. Certainly, Sam Burns impressed fans last week at the Open Championship for three rounds, but how is that Sunday 80 sitting with you? Probably better than 3M Open’s favorite Tony Finau’s 81 in round two, leading to an MC. Following them on Read more…
After a thrilling close to major season where Xander Schauffele captured the claret jug, the PGA Tour returns to the states for the 3M Open. The task at hand at TPC Twin Cities will draw a stark contrast to the questions being posed last week at Royal Troon, but there is plenty to play for Read more…
How ironic that the layout at Royal Troon has been compared to Dante’s Divine Comedy. The course rolls out in three stages just like the poet’s prose. Holes one through six are referred to as heaven. The scoring section of the course has three short par 4s and two par 5s. With the prevailing wind Read more…
We have reached the final major championship of the year, as the Open Championship returns to Scotland. Royal Troon will play the host venue for the ninth occasion and the first time since 2016, when Phil Mickelson and Henrik Stenson lifted and separated from the rest of the field in an iconic duel. Troon is Read more…
I swear the British Open, that original of major tournaments, exists to remind us that as much as we strive for order, and, well, the logical, we cannot have it. Golf, like life, is almost never what you expect it to be. Especially elite golf, in this day and age, cannot be planned for in Read more…
