The Masters Betting Preview
This week, golf returns to the familiar grounds of Augusta National Golf Club for The Masters. One of the beautiful things about The Masters, other than the manicured lawn, is that it’s the only major played at the same course every year, allowing us to make better judgements on how best to attack it. That […]

2022 Valero Texas Open Betting Preview
With only a week to go before the year’s first major, the PGA Tour assembles this week in San Antonio for the Valero Texas Open. It is always an eclectic mix that makes up a field a week prior to a major — those looking to simply prep and create good swing thoughts in competition […]

2022 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play Betting Preview
Once per year, the golf world bestows upon us the best week of golf betting: The WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play. The event has been played in Austin, Texas, since 2016 at Austin Country Club. The course is a short par 71, stretching only 7,073 yards, and plays even shorter when adjusted for length of each […]

2022 Valspar Championship Betting Preview
A largely rain-soaked and wind-battered PGA field will make its way across the state of Florida to take on the Copperhead Course at Innisbrook Resort for the Valspar Championship this week. Known for its tree-lined fairways and narrow landing spaces, Copperhead is also home to a famed three-hole stretch known as the “Snake Pit.” Like […]

Matt’s Musings | PGA Data Study, March 10
Over the course of the PGA season, I’d like to do a few deep dives into the world of statistics in golf. There are plenty of stats to choose from and, quite frankly, it’s hard to wade through it all. In the end, people focus on the granular data because it’s available but I’m not […]

2022 The Players Championship Betting Preview
Golf’s strongest field of the year will once again tee off on Thursday at TPC Sawgrass for the PGA Tours crown Jewel, The Players Championship. The course is as much a part of this tournament as the deep field, and while most of the shine is on the famed #17 island green, the entire course […]

2022 Arnold Palmer Invitational Betting Preview
With a majority of the field taking last week off, many return to competition for this week’s tournament, the Arnold Palmer Invitational (API). Like the Genesis Invitational, the API is an elevated status tournament, which means the field is slightly smaller than a regular PGA event and the purse is larger. Along with that, there […]

2022 Honda Classic betting preview
The Honda Classic is sandwiched between two premier PGA Tour events, leaving it in a tough spot to attract a top field. Not only that, the course, PGA National, is one of the toughest tests each year on the schedule. The famed “Bear Trap,” a three-hole stretch (15-16-17) as the golfers come home, is always […]

The PGA Tour makes its way back to California for this week’s Genesis Invitational, being played at The Riviera Country Club.
