Around The World: Best bets for this week in golf (10/28-11/1)
This week’s golf best bets will be coming from the Bermuda Classic and Cyprus Open. As always, one of the main goals of this article is to expose other golf betting opportunities outside of the PGA Tour. Markets are smaller and less popular, which often provides the largest edges (T20s/10s/matchups). I strongly encourage you, if […]

Course breakdown for Port Royal for the Bermuda Championship
This week’s course preview brings us to Port Royal Golf Course in Bermuda. Last year this course hosted the inaugural Bermuda Championship and unfortunately, ShotLink data is not available once again to help break down the course. One year of basic data is better than nothing, but I’m still not sure it’s enough to definitively say who […]
