Bet on Top Ten Finishers in Weekend’s BMW Championship
by admin

One of the best online wagers that the BetUS online sportsbook offers on golf tournaments is making a wager on a golfer to finish in the Top Ten. The reason that this is such a good online bet to make is because the online odds are usually above even money on almost every single golfer in any given tournament whose name isn’t: Tiger Woods, Vijay Singh, Sergio Garcia or Phil Mickelson.
That means that overlaid online betting odds can be found on such magnificent golfers as Padraig Harrington and Jim Furyk. It makes sense for online sportsbook betting fans to take a look at which golfers might do well in this weekend’s BMW Championship based on online odds.
Remember, the golfer you choose to place an online wager on only needs to finish in the Top Ten, not win the tournament.
Let’s get to it!
Best Top Ten Online Wagering Interests for the BMW Championship
1. Padraig Harrington online betting odds + 180 - - Harrington has to get going eventually. He has too much pride to continue playing that week brand of golf we’ve seen out of him lately. His online odds to finish in the Top Ten are good enough for me to take a swing.
2. Jim Furyk online betting odds + 125 - - Furyk hardly ever finishes out of the Top Ten in any tournament he enters. Furyk may not do enough to win tournaments but he always does enough to bring home a nice paycheck. He’s a solid, conservative golfer which is what you want when making this type of online wager.
3. Anthony Kim online betting odds + 225 - - Kim has the ability to finish in the Top Ten every time he steps onto the golf betting course. Like Furyk, he rarely wins a tournament but he can keep it close. I suspect he will do very well this weekend.
4. Stewart Cink online betting odds + 365 - - Cink is in the top five in money earned this year. That should be enough for us to pause and take a look at him as a viable long shot to finish in the Top Ten in this tournament. I believe that he’s coming up to a good showing and, again, that’s all we would need out of him to cash this online bet.
5. Carl Pettersson online betting odds + 450 - - Pettersson was great two weekends ago, not so good last weekend. If he bounces back, he’s an overlaid wager at + 450. If he throws in the towel early, at least we didn’t wimp out and make an online bet on the chalk, right?
6. Mike Weir online betting odds + 225 - - Weir probably should have won the Deutsche Bank Championship this past weekend, but Vijay came up and took it away in the final round. If Weir continues his hot streak, then betting him to finish in the Top Ten will be like stealing money from a blind bum on the corner of Santa Monica and Highland in Hollywood, CA. Okay, maybe not that easy, but it will be easy!
Good Luck!
