This week in the European Tour, it is the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship.
Now we’ll be straight up and honest here – when it comes to betting tips for this one, it’s much like a lottery. I mean look at the odds of the last few winners:
Oliver Wilson: 500/1
David Howell: 125/1
Branden Grace: 50/1
Michael Hoey: 250/1
Some absolutely astronomical odds there for a lot of those. So while we will do our best with the betting tips, don’t put everything you own on them!
And we’re also coming off a very succesful PGA Tour Championship. We tipped both Jordan Spieth to win and Justin Rose Top 4 and here are the results of both of those:
Two lovely wins.
The PGA season will return for the 2015/2016 season on October 15th with the Frys.com Open. We will of course return with betting tips for all of that.
Alfred Dunhill Links Championship 2015 Betting Odds:
- Martin Kaymer: 16/1
- Brooks Koepka: 16/1
- Branden Grace: 16/1
- Shane Lowry: 20/1
- Danny Willett: 20/1
- Luke Donald: 25/1
- Charl Schwartzel: 28/1
- Bernd Wiesberger: 28/1
- Lee Westwood: 33/1
- Matthew Fitzpatrick: 33/1
Not the best odds there with it being so top heavy. As we said let’s bet small amounts this week.
Links Championship Betting Tip #1: Lee Westwood
Westwood doesn’t have the best history in the Links Championship in recent years, but his form this season is something worth looking at. He’s had a lot of solid little results over the season and while nothing mind blowing – he’s someone we have to consider here. He just stands out amongst the field, and the 33/1 odds we feel have value.
We’d be splitting a quarter unit on this one and going to win and each/way.
Links Championship Betting Tip #2: Danny Willett
Danny Willett is someone we have to look at here. He’s missed the last two cuts but he’s had some top 5 finishes and shown what he is capable of.
Willett also has had a very solid season – including the win at the Omega European Masters a few months ago, and his last European Tour tieing for 3rd place in the Italian Open.
Williett has had so many solid results including tied for 6th at the Open Championship, and he is worth in our opinion a half unit bet to win & E/W.
Links Championship Betting Tip #3: The Long Shots
We’re now going to take a full unit and split it up over 4 golfers at high odds with recommendation to bet to win and E/W.
Roope Kakko 125/1: The finnish golfer has had some solid results this season and shouldn’t be taken lightly. He is solid on par 5s and that comes into play here.
Lee Slattery 80/1: Slattery has had some great results in September already with the KLM Open and the M2M Russian Open where he came 1st and 2nd respectively.
Victor Dubuisson 50/1: We were so high on Dubuisson at the beginning of the season and it’s sad how poor he has played. But hey maybe he can turn it around here? He has the skill to do just that.
Padraig Harrington 100/1 Sometimes a name just pops out at you. This was one of them.
