Golf betting tips for The St. Jude Championship (in more detail):
Jon Rahm:
Current form (last 5 starts): T50 – T16 – T10 – MC – T2.
Tournament form (last 5 starts): DNP – 7 – T52 – DNP – T5.
Reasons to believe – Jon Rahm:
“Of the “big 3″ in the betting market this week, I’d say Rahm is best positioned. He hasn’t played since finishing second at The Open Championship last month, so should be well rested and ready to make a charge for the FedEx Cup Playoffs. He finished fifth at the St. Jude Championship last year, and he is a must-consider for the title this week.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Viktor Hovland:
Current form (last 5 starts): 1 – 19 – T29 – T25 – T13.
Tournament form (last 5 starts): DNP – DNP – T25 – T23 – T20.
Reasons to believe – Viktor Hovland:
“Hovland’s game is well-suited to the course, but to date, his best finish is T20. However his much-improved short game this season should make a big difference and hopefully help catapult him up the leaderboard this week.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Brian Harman:
Each-way (1 point e/w @ 35/1 with William Hill – 7 places, 1/5 odds).
Current form (last 5 starts): T43 – T2 – T9 – 12 – 1.
Tournament form (last 5 starts): DNP – DNP – DNP – T36 – T3.
Reasons to believe – Brian Harman:
“First things first, let’s congratulate Harman on becoming The Open Champion last month. An amazing performance and achievement for Brian, which also resulted in a great win for us here too on the betting blog (tipping up a 125/1 winner!). Anyway, back to business and this is Harman’s first appearance since that Open Championship victory, so he will be well-rested and looking to continue his great run of recent form. He is the number one in scrambling this season, which will be a valuable asset this week. Having finished T3 here last year, he clearly knows how to navigate the course too.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Lucas Glover:
Each-way (1 point e/w @ 66/1 with William Hill – 7 places, 1/5 odds).
Current form (last 5 starts): T4 – T6 – 5 – MC – 1.
Tournament form (last 5 starts): DNP – DNP – DNP – T37 – T3.
Reasons to believe – Lucas Glover:
“What a run and what a win to get into the playoffs! His form has been great, with a win, two top-5 finishes, and a top-10 in his last five weeks. His iron play should suit the course again this week, and his newfound confidence in the long putter could help him go back-to-back.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
Big Dal’s, big price outsider – JT Poston:
Each-way (1 point e/w @ 66/1 with William Hill – 7 places, 1/5 odds).
Current form (last 5 starts): T6 – T6 – T41 – T2 – T7.
Tournament form (last 5 starts): T18 – DNP – T30 – DNP – T20.
Reasons to believe – JT Poston:
“Another player in unbelievable form, with four top-ten finishes in his last five weeks. At 66/1, he looks a bit overpriced, and if he can put another great week together, there’s no reason why he can’t put himself in contention and get the victory.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
