Golf Betting

Golf in Australia? No, you’d think. Right? Wrong. Australia is regarded as a long standing power in golf and has the highest numbers of golf courses per capita in the world. Not to mention, some of the world’s greatest golfers have come from down under. Which makes golf betting somewhat more than just placing a bet. An Australian has never won the US Masters, which duly makes it the holy grail of Australian sport. Punters best hold tight to their seats, because there’s not an Australian that won’t tell you it’s bound to happen soon. They call golf the gentleman’s game, assuming because there is no contact. Golf betting is something very, very different from that.

Golf is called a precision game, and well it should be. It involves hitting a ball with a club into a hole that is, more often than not, quite far away initially and far too close at the end. There are a variety of different clubs one can use, producing a variety of different shots depending on the speed and the power used by the golfer. Golfing events themselves vary, depending on what is happening and whether it is female or male.

  • Golfing tours are organised by the various Professional Golfers’ Associations around the world. The most popular of these is the PGA Tour, but other include the Japan Golf Tour, the Asia Tour and the Sunshine Tour.
  • The men’s major championships are the four most prestigious men’s tournaments of the year – The Masters, The US Open, The Open Championship and the PGA Championship.
  • Women’s golf does not have a globally agreed set of championships. But popularly recognised championships are: The Kraft Nabisco Championship, the LPGA Championship, the US Women’s Open, the British Women’s Open and the Evian Masters.

Golf betting is somewhat simpler than the game itself. You can bet on a win, or a place to finish or you could bet both and stand to win for either. You can place a match bet, which is related to strokeplay tournaments or you can place a two ball bet, which bets on whether one player will outscore another player in one round. A three ball bet is whether one player will outscore two other players in one round. Group and combination betting is also available.
