Memorial Tournament Tips for Golf Betting This Week

A dry summer for southern England finally gave way to some heavy rain last week which will have given the course a welcome dousing. Sunshine and showers is the 4-day summary for tournament play with temperatures reaching around 18 Centrigrade/;64 Fahrenheit in the afternoons. The breeze will be moderate throughout at 10-15mph, with the odd gust in excess of that, which will present a fair challenge around these parts.

Collin Morikawa 14/1 (E/W) – the 28-year-old has good history at Jack’s Place, finishing runner-up twice in 2021 and 2024. From ten starts this season he has 3 x Top 10 finishes including two runner-up finishes in Signature Events. Despite weak Scrambling stats, he still places inside the Top 20 in this week’s Stats Analysis. If he has a chink in his armour, it is Putting, however, while having a red-hot putter is always a plus, this is one of those weeks where it is more about grinding out scores. The California native fits the archetype for success this week and his Muirfield pedigree demands attention.

With Matsuyama, there’s arguably more risk but certainly greater upside at these odds and while he did finish the PGA Tour season with a dismal effort in the TOUR Championship, all prior starts following a top-20 finish in the Open were of a good standard. That’s why he’s retained his position in DataGolf’s top 30 and as we know with Matsuyama, a big spike week is seldom that far away. For the stock par-fours, including the particularly tough ones like one, three, nine, 13 and 15, power really doesn’t help all that much and this is more of a second-shot course, where placement is key and the wayward struggle. Some of the statistically strongest players off the tee last year were Jeff Winther, Marcus Kinhult and Si Woo Kim, all lacking power, but all pounding fairways and staying out of the trees.

PGA Tour golf betting tips: Tour Championship 2025 preview

There had been signs of promise in the Dunhill Links before that, as there had in a less obvious way in France, and he was solid in all departments when 26th in the Irish Open, all of which combined represents some of the best golf he’s played in what’s been a disappointing year. Ultimately, Schaper remains a serious prospect and he’s got three or four excellent chances to win before the year is out, starting here. Among the big names he’s alongside Harman and Fleetwood as a reliably accurate driver of the ball, but I’d question the motivation levels of the other two. Harman has been off since August and is surely here for a healthy cheque; Fleetwood can manage without one of those after his FedEx Cup bounty, he can’t win the Race to Dubai, and he too would be forgiven for not being as thoroughly prepared as he usually is. In fact there are maybe more here than at DLF, a course with manufactured hazards which have made for some big numbers since it took over hosting duties for the Indian Open.

He’s only been to India once and not to play this golf course, but twice he probably should’ve won at Harbour Town, he’s been second at Fanling, and a solid record across Asia includes good performances in Japan and Korea, while he’s of course won in the Middle East. Above all else, a tight, tree-lined course where accuracy is key and pars are valuable seems very likely to suit. There’s a new event on an old golf course this week and Ben Coley fancies Shane Lowry for the DP World India Championship. Finally I’ll take a speculative punt on Daniel Hiller to complete this week’s team as he looks to emulate compatriot Ryan Fox’s effort here from two years ago.

The Value Rating column indicates a 1 to 5-star value wager, 5 stars being the best. The Value Rating is calculated by comparing the % of picks against the total number, the odds of a selection and the theoretical chances of winning. If the tip % is higher than the theoretical chances of winning according to the odds, that is a sign that the selection could offer a value bet. The selection odds are also shown along with the number of tips received against the total number of tips on available outcomes in the betting market which gives the confidence percentage figure.

Ryder Cup Special Bets: 7 Picks Including Top Rookie And Wildcard Plus Scheffler And McIlroy Totals

Has been close at times with six top-10s, the pick at Harbour Town, but has done nothing over the first two weeks of the Playoffs to suggest he’ll leap from 28th last year to anything like a field-leading score this year. Season that began with a bang and should’ve seen him end his major drought has petered out now and he was awful at Southwind after missing out on a medal in Paris. Better last week though (despite several viral-for-the-wrong-reason moments) and having won the FedEx Cup from a seemingly impossible position two years ago, might yet do it again.

For example, the PGA Tour season and FedEx Cup point scoring start in mid-September on the West Coast before moving on to Las Vegas in October and then various locations concluding with the Hero World Challenge and QBE Shootout before the Christmas break. Here are a few reasons why a player may produce good results at a particular course and others with a similar layout and setup. Experts are OLBG tipsters with high strike rates, current month or 6 month profitability for a particular sport.

We won’t find out until Sunday, but we can make some educated guesses ahead of Thursday’s opening according to industry data round.

He is the pick of the outsiders at 66-1, while Grant Forrest has shown signs of the form that earned him the Nexo Championship in August with a couple of decent performances in his last two starts. Fast-improving Spaniard Angel Ayora’s fine effort to finish in the top ten in his home Open last week has seen his odds clipped to around 33-1. Steve has nailed 13 outright winnersthis year at 66-1, 60-1, 40-1 (three times), 33-1, 22-1, 20-1 (twice), 9-1, 8-1, 11-4 and 7-4. Tommy Fleetwood is second on the odds board at 27-to-4, with Fleetwood playing in this new event. Darius van Driel is a decent option at a big price given his form at some of the courses mentioned, but I prefer JORGE CAMPILLO on the basis that he’s played at a higher level and has a bit more about him under the gun.

You can add as many selections as you wish, for example, you may wish to combine selections from various tournaments in an Acca. In this bet you are simply betting on which player finishes ahead of the other, it does not matter if either does not win the tournament it is simply who finished in the better ranking for the tournament. The Masters tournament is a good example where a player’s record and previous course form can be analysed from a reliable dataset as the tournament is always held at Augusta National. Does a player always finish in the top ten, absolutely not but analysis will highlight those who consistently play well at the Masters as opposed to others who may struggle despite performing at a high level generally on the tour.

The trouble is I doubt that’ll be enough to even threaten the places, so he’s one I’d be more inclined to try in any sub-markets where 25th might do. Like Schaper, he’s shown promise without quite seeing it through at DLF, proving that he can cope with the demands of playing in India, and 35th in Spain last week was perfectly encouraging. He’d been 29th before his latest win, 30th and 12th before the prior one and 40th before his breakthrough, and a fourth DP World Tour title could arrive this weekend. A winner in Mauritius last December having been runner-up the previous week, Parry gave notice right at the beginning of the campaign and has continued to strike the ball supremely well since. At a time of year when talk is typically of cards and cut-offs, all eyes are on a selection of world-class golfers heading east for the brand new DP World India Championship.

And if you want even fancier odds, Finland’s Tapio Pulkkanen has shown enough glimpses of his best form recently to warrant a small interest at 200-1. Michael Kim, who showed real grit to win the French Open a few weeks ago, is another American worth following, especially at 25-1. Fleetwood’s 6-1 quote looks a bit skinny, and the out-of-form Lowry makes little appeal at 18-1. So Hovland – another 10-1 shot – could prove the pick of the European Ryder Cup quartet.

Let’s have a look at the betting odds for the 2025 Sanderson Farms Championship in Mississippi, then let betting expert Sloan Piva outline his picks and predictions for the PGA Tour event. After a two-week break, the PGA Tour returns on Thursday with the annual Sanderson Farms Championship. This tournament has been a fun one over the past few years, with the past six editions all decided by one stroke or a playoff — and the last six winners posted an average score of nearly 20 under par. When you have finished adding your picks check the odds comparison table at the top of the screen to see which bookie is offering the best payout odds, selecting your preferred bookmaker will transfer you to their site or betting app without the need to add the selections again. Look at the tipster’s level stakes profit over the last 6 months, their strike rate and other stats we highlight such as the current hot streak to help decide on whether to follow a selection.

• So Hovland – another 10-1 shot – could prove the pick of the European Ryder Cup quartet.
• The Swede has won four times in Britain on the DP World Tour, including the Scottish Open at the Castle Stuart links.
• Michael Kim, who showed real grit to win the French Open a few weeks ago, is another American worth following, especially at 25-1.
• This tournament has been a fun one over the past few years, with the past six editions all decided by one stroke or a playoff — and the last six winners posted an average score of nearly 20 under par.
• This time, with the help of European Golf Design, the brief was to return the course back closer to the original vision conceived by Harry Colt but with consideration for how golf has developed in modern times.
• His nickname is Chip-putt-sia for a reason and players with a skill set golf is leaving behind will relish rolling back the years as he did.

What Type of Player Succeeds at the Memorial Tournament?

While all of this has been playing out, Lowry has been quietly finding some form after a stretch of results that ultimately saw him need a wildcard pick to ensure his place at Bethpage. 23rd at the BMW Championship, 13th at the Tour Championship and 15th last week in Ireland have all shown promising signs, with Shane himself admitting that his finish at the K Club was about the worst it could have been given how well his long game held up. 5th for SG Off the Tee, 4th for SG Approach and 2nd for SG Tee to Green would have been massively competitive if the putter had been remotely compliant.

He was third in the Masters, 26th in the US PGA, 16th in the US Open and three of his last four tournaments have yielded a top-20 finish. Anyway, Wentworth is much more his thing as he’s shown when finishing runner-up two years ago then fourth last year, both times thanks to high-class tee-to-green displays. Like Hovland, he’s a fantastic iron player (22nd and seventh in last two PGA Tour seasons), and he’s both accurate off the tee and sharp with a wedge in his hands around the green. Supreme with his irons that week and excellent both off the tee and with his irons again last time, he returns having closed with a round of 63 at East Lake, bettered by only one player, and looks to have an outstanding each-way chance.

Let’s have a look at the betting odds for the 2025 DP World India Championship in New Delhi, then let betting expert Sloan Piva outline his picks and predictions for the inaugural event. That’s eight top-10s for the year, four times the number he managed in 2024, and Schaper is to my mind a winner in waiting. Perhaps it’ll have to wait for these stars to depart and a return to South Africa, but of the remaining events I’m certain this golf course represents his best opportunity. It’s worth saying at this point that there’s a new exemption category for Ryder Cup players which gives them access to the two big-money DP World Tour events which end the season, so Fleetwood doesn’t even need to climb inside the cut-off for the first of them. All of this is set against the reality that seldom do we see such an imbalance between in this case half a dozen golfers who’ve played to an elite standard at some stage this year, and rank-and-file DP World Tour players. The best recent example was the Irish Open, won of course by McIlroy, but that featured Marco Penge, Tom McKibbin, Brooks Koepka, Kristoffer Reitan and Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen.
