Golf betting tips for
The Valspar Championship (in more detail):
Jordan Spieth:
  • To win outright (3 points win @ 12/1 with William Hill). 

  • Current form (last 5 starts): T63 – T6 – MC – T4 – T19.

  • Tournament form (last 5 starts): MC – DNP – No Event (Covid) – DNP – DNP.

Reasons to believe – Jordan Spieth:

“He just needs the putter to warm up a bit and he will be flying! He has registered x2 top 10 finishes in his last 5 starts. Not played here since 2018, but he did win here in 2015 and history suggests that it is a ‘horses for courses’ type of event, so I expect him to go well this week.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.


Justin Thomas: 
  • To win outright (2 points win @ 10/1 with William Hill). 

  • Current form (last 5 starts): T27 – 4 – T20 – T21 – T60.

  • Tournament form (last 5 starts): DNP – DNP – No Event (Covid) – T13 – T3.

Reasons to believe – Justin Thomas:

“Not playing his best golf at the moment. He is making cuts, but not really troubling the top-end of the leaderboard. However over the years he has x4 top 20 finishes here and was T3 last year. Maybe it’s this week that it all clicks and he gets back to winning ways.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.


Tommy Fleetwood:
  • Each-way (1.5 points e/w @ 22/1 with William Hill – 8 places, 1/5 odds).

  • Current form (last 5 starts): T59 – 4 – T20 – T61 – T27.

  • Tournament form (last 5 starts): DNP – DNP – No Event (Covid) – DNP – T16.

Reasons to believe – Tommy Fleetwood:

“In good form at the moment and playing better than his results suggest. He was T4 going into the final round last week at The Players Championship. Hopefully everything falls into place this week and he can get his big breakthrough win on the PGA tour.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.


Justin Rose:
  • Each-way (1 point e/w @ 22/1 with William Hill – 8 places, 1/5 odds).

  • Current form (last 5 starts): T18 – 1 – MC – MC – T6.

  • Tournament form (last 5 starts): T5 – DNP – No Event (Covid) – MC – DNP.

Reasons to believe – Justin Rose:

“Good to see Rose playing well again. With one win under his belt already this season, a T6 last week and good form here over the years, his chances cannot be dismissed.” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.


Big Dal’s, big price outsider
– Denny McCarthy
:
  • Each-way (1 point e/w @ 33/1 with William Hill – 8 places, 1/5 odds).

  • Current form (last 5 starts): T4 – MC – T14 – MC – T13.

  • Tournament form (last 5 starts): DNP – T9 – No Event (Covid) – T39 – T48.

Reasons to believe – Denny McCarthy:

“Not the biggest price of outside bets this week, but at 33/1 he has to be included. Good recent form with x1 top 10 and x2 top 20 finishes in his last 5 starts. He also has a top 10 finish at this event. Just need the tee-to-green part of his game to improve as the putter is already red hot!” – ParUp Golf’s resident tipster ‘Big Dal’ on why he can win.
