Golf

The bets are back after a few weeks off. Golf is a sport where books are often way off. I don't post golf that often since the limits are quiet low.


Wyndham Championships


Leonard to win 3 ball over Harrington,Casey +200(3+)  1 unit

All three players are struggling and have similar recent form. Harrington and Casey were late into this tournament since they need more points to make the post season.

Harrington has some serious ball striking problems. Both in greens and fairways hit he is very low. Casey is hitting some greens but hits no fairways.

Casey’s best finish in his last 7 starts in the US is 45th and that was in a small field. He has not had a first round under 71 since March.

Harrington has played somewhat better but he has not been better than 54th the last 4 weeks. Much of his game has been scrambling since he is hitting the ball so bad.

Leonard’s big weakness is that he hits the ball very short. He has to compensate for that by being close to perfect with the rest of his game. The good thing for this bet is that this course is very short. It also has only two par 5s and they are pretty short both of them. This means that also Leonard can reach these in two shots so the edge longer hitters usually have is gone here.

Leonard was 3rd on this course last year, Casey 26th and Harrington didn’t play.
