US Masters Golf Betting - Augusta, April 10-13

60% Better US Master Golf Betting at PinnacleSports.com


US Masters Betting Preview - Will Tiger Show the Augusta Field Who’s Master?

With a nickname like the Garden City, Augusta, Georgia doesn’t rank as one of America’s most vibrant places. However, every April, the world watches as it hosts the first of golf’s four annual major tournaments - the US Masters - this his year taking place from the 10th to the 13th . Leading online sportsbook, PinnacleSports.com, has world no.1 Tiger Woods as a worthy favourite priced 2.220 for victory, against 1.758 the field, a market priced to less than 102%.

Augusta was famously where the Tiger Woods phenomenon first exploded back in 1997. Aged just 21, Woods claimed his first major and in the process destroyed the field by a record 12 shot margin, which also remains the Master’s lowest ever aggregate score (270). Tiger has gone on to win 13 majors, donning the famous green jacket three times since, on his way to dominating world golf. Tiger finished tied second in the 2007 Masters and US Open, and won the last major – the USPGA - and has been in scintillating form at the start of the new season, winning seven straight events up until the WGC-CA Championship in Miami, toward the end March.


Woods vs. Mickelson

At only 32, Tiger is still in his prime and his desire still burns to overtake Jack Nicklaus’s record of 18 majors, and six Masters’ wins. Although the market doesn’t reflect it, Phil Mickelson has a better recent record than Woods at Augusta winning two of the last four events (in 2004 & 2006). PinnacleSports.com has a Mickleson-Woods head-to-head market, with Tiger 1.25 to beat “Leftie” over 72 holes, with Big Phil 4.60 to finish ahead of Woods. Mickelson will be hoping for an improvement on last year, when he made a disappointing defence, finishing equal 24th, ten shots adrift of shock winner Zach Johnson.


Alternative Markets at Augusta

The Masters’ field is the smallest of the four major events but guarantees that the best-of-the-best appear, including the top 50 in the 2007 official golf world rankings, and the top 30 in the PGA 2007 money earners list. This helps to keep the field down to around 90 golfers, but for golf betting novices finding the winner might feel like picking a needle out of a haystack. There are however plenty of alternative wagers at leading online sportsbook, PinnacleSports.com, to keep punters interested throughout the four days of the event, including whether or not Tiger will double-bogey or worse during the tournament (Yes 1.645, No 2.450); something he avoided in 2007 despite the difficult conditions; or score an eagle or better (Yes 1.833, No 2.10) which he did on hole 13 of his final round in 2007.

The key point about these two way golf markets, and all sports match-ups at PinnacleSports.com, is that they are priced to around 102% giving you up to 60% better value than at traditional sportsbooks.
