2021 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am betting card preview
This week's event at Pebble Beach will look a bit different than past iterations, most notably lacking the amateur element and three-course rotation that typically forces a 54-hole cut. Bill Murray and Larry the Cable Guy can have Monterrey Peninsula to themselves this week. The 156-golfer field will split time between Pebble Beach and Spyglass […]

2021 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am betting preview
This week’s PGA Tour tournament preview will take us back to California for the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, which takes place at Pebble Beach Golf Links. The course is historic and as far as the Tour’s regular rotation goes, it’s right alongside Augusta National in golf lore. Despite having “links” in the title, Pebble Beach […]

This week, the PGA Tour is off to Phoenix to play the Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale Stadium Course. It’s a rare course where an advantage can be gained through both distance and accuracy, though distance still reigns supreme when searching for the largest edge. Aggressive golfers can be greatly rewarded here, with […]

2021 Waste Management Phoenix Open betting card preview
The Stadium Course and world-famous Par-3 16th hole at the Waste Management Phoenix Open will undoubtedly feel different this week than in years past, though having 5,000 people outside the rope in Scottsdale will provide a unique experience of its own when compared to the previous seven months of PGA Tour events. That's not the […]

2021 Waste Management Phoenix Open betting preview
This week the PGA Tour leaves California and heads for Phoenix to play the Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale Stadium Course. It will be a strange scene this year I’m sure, as the “loudest hole in golf” won’t be so loud, with the tournament limiting spectators to only 5,000 per day. I truly […]

Betting 101: Bankroll management and staking golf wagers
I wanted to write something to explain expectations of following along with golf wagering, and this could be helpful for your wagering in other sports as well. You could be great at picking winners in any sport, but if you’re terrible at managing your money, you will end up losing. Downturns are an inevitable part […]

Analyzing variance in putting on the PGA Tour
This week, I would like to see if there is any predictability in putting when breaking it down by five-foot increments. Last week, I introduced a basic breakdown showing how ball striking and short game relates to a golfer’s skill. We saw that although ball-striking made up more of the composition, the short game still played […]

Analyzing golf skill vs. long and short games
Every week, the most talked about statistics in golf are strokes gained, and in particular, ball striking. If you’re not familiar with strokes gained, the PGA Tour describes in depth how it is calculated here. On the surface, strokes gained stats are great at telling the story of how a golfer has come upon their […]

Betting 101: Why you should convert American odds to win probability
This is a lesson that can be used across all sports for many different reasons, but I’m going to go over why I think it’s especially important when wagering on golf outrights.
