Golf Place Review 2024
Simple review this one on the place model, probably my biggest USP that keeps balancing the higher variance of the outrights some years better than other
Golf place
Bets: 480
Stakes: 46.2
Profits: 13.69
ROI: 29.59%
The last two weeks with Ockie Strydom and Dale Whitnell landing big priced wins for top 10 finishes has really bumped the year up to above normal variance.
Notable wins Bet365 prices
Bahrain – Girrbach top 10 45/1 and top 20 14/1
Jonsson Workwear – Cantero top 10 20/1
Indian Open – Alhawat top 5 33/1 and top 10 14/1
ISPS China – Sugiura 25/1 top 10
Open Championship – Lawrence 33/1 top 10,
Isco – Ben Taylor 55/1 top 10
BMW PGA top 10 Matthew Baldwin 28/1
BMW PGA top 20 Matthew Baldwin 10/1
Harrison Crowe top 10 40/1 (14/1 settled due to DH)
Ockie Strydrom top 10 33/1
Dale Whitnell top 10 30/1
Dale Whitnell top 20 10/1
That list tells more than it should, that the PGA Tour is becoming the most difficult tour to find the bookmaker pricing different to mine, in fact only Taylor and Lawrence were big priced winners on the PGA Tour and Lawrence was in the Open.
No doubt, my place model volume in America has dropped markedly since Covid-19 and that is still not enough reading this list. Reducing field numbers in events for the future further will make the product even easier for the firms. Let alone Scheffler’s dominance which we will discuss later.
For 2025, the place model will concentrate on the DP World Tour, where our edge is appreciably better and a proper tour, not a paid exhibition that the PGA Tour is on the road to becoming.
