Hi. I am new to golf betting (just been doing last three weeks). But I do CFB and am a quick study. Let me know if I am completely wrong about something here! Thanks.
So I have two views here. One, the Ryder rankings give a good reflection of a player's desire to get points. Many players at the top of Ryder but at long odds for John Deere:
Nick Taylor, Eric Cole, Seamus Power, T Montgomery, Hun An, Grillo, Schenk, Hadwin, Kirk are all Top 50 Ryder Cup players,
Also, Rodgers, Kuchar, Todd, and Smalley, though they don't project to do as well on this course.
Then there are the players who have 5 weeks to get to top 70 or stay in top 70 so are motivated this week. Between 80 and 60 is Bramlett, Hossler, Jaeger, KH Lee, Ryder, Mitchell, Hubbard, and Ben Taylor.
Also, Hun An, Smalley, Todd, Kuchar, Rodgers, and Brandon Wu are between 45-55, so they want to get points.
I have parlayed most of these names in T5,T10,T20,T30,T40 in various combos on FD for fun. But for my winners value plays. Given the above facts, I like most:
1. Ryder (100-1)
2. B. Todd (75-1)
3. Dylan Wu (65-1)
4. Seamus Power (40-1)
5. T. Montgomery (60-1)
6. N. Taylor (40-1)
7. Hun An (40-1)
8. KH Lee (55-1)
-----Hoping for bad day 1 to invest--------
1. Jaeger (30-1)
2. Grillo (30-1)
3. Hubbard (55-1)
4. Schenk (30-1)
5. Hadwin (28-1)
And Round 1 / 2 Leaders:
Aberg
Ryder
Lashley
B. Taylor
Good luck to everyone!
