Golf Betting Online

While some bettors love the fast-paced action of team sports, others prefer the calm and soothing tempo of betting on golf online. With a season that fills the void between NFL seasons, and essentially coincides with baseball, PGA Golf offers many intriguing betting opportunities. Some of the most wagered on events include the four “majors” (The Masters, The U.S. Open, The British Open, and the PGA Championship), and the end-of-season Ryder Cup.

The Basics of Golf Betting Odds

The basic way to bet on golf tournaments is to bet on the outright winner. The odds are usually presented in either American or fractional odds. An example would be a player to win a tournament at +900 or 9/1, which means you would win $900 on a $100 wager. The same logic would apply to a +1200 or 12/1 option as the wager would pay out $1200 on a $100 bet. Golf odds are usually listed under golf futures on most online sportsbooks.

Most sportsbooks will also golf odds on head-to-head matchups on golf as well, especially in the majors and high profile tournaments. The players in a head-to-head will receive a spread, which is measured in strokes, that applies to that day. An example would be Player A having a -4.5 handicap at -115 against Player B. Player A would have to score at least five strokes better than Player B to win the bet.

Head-to-head odds are available at the majors such as the Masters, U.S. Open, the Open and the PGA Championship as well as the Players Championship and the FedEx Cup. Some sportsbooks will release head-to-head golf odds on lesser tournaments if a significant matchup between two premier players emerges during the final day as well.

A Simple Golf Betting Strategy

Betting on golf usually requires bettors to sink a few wagers in on their favorites and hope that they cash in. Even the heavy favorites will be listed underdogs, meaning that the steepest odds you’ll see at a PGA event is usually somewhere between +300 to +500. The odds from there can go all the way up to +10000 for the true longshots.

Most will sprinkle some money on two favorites, and one or two outsiders in the +1500 to +2500 range. This usually covers you and gives you a chance to ride the hot hand or key in on a bet featuring a player who has success on a particular course or at a certain event.
