(Newswire.net — November 18, 2021) — With a good staking plan and diligent betting, it is possible to win from golf betting online consistently. Golf has always been a popular sport worldwide. Golf has quickly become one of the most popular sports to gamble on online using Bitcoin.
The number of betting options, markets, and bookies available to new sports bettors can be intimidating at first. This article will expose you to the popular golf tournaments as their betting markets. If you are yet to bet on golf, you can check out the best Bitcoin betting sites once the tournament is running.
Golf Tournaments to bet on with Bitcoin
Golf betting online is available on two major tours. The first is the PGA Tour, mostly held in the US, with a few events in Asia and South America. The great majority of PGA Tour players are born in America and compete against the best in the world. The PGA Tour attracts the world’s greatest players for prize money and world ranking points.
The European Tour (ET) covers Europe, Asia, and Southern Africa. Many ET events are co-sanctioned with the Asian and Sunshine Tours, giving many tournament fields an international flavor. For example, the 2016 ET season features 45 events in 26 nations.
Each tour concludes with a final series when the season’s top performers fight for huge cash prizes in smaller fields. The PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup and the European Tour’s Race to Dubai.
The Fed-Ex Cup comprises four tournaments, the first including the top 125 US Money winners of the season. The second event reduces that amount to 100, and the third to 70. The Tour Championship is the last event when only the top 30 players compete for the Fed-Ex Cup. The trophy goes to the player who earns the most money during the PGA season.
The top 60 point winners from that season’s aggregate ET tournaments qualify for three final series events with no cuts. The Race to Dubai winner will be the man who accumulates the most points throughout the ET season, just like the PGA Tour.
Betting with Bitcoin on the major golf events
Every year, the best players from each tour compete in four Majors: the Masters, US Open, Open, and USPGA Championship. These four events are without a doubt the most sought-after free golf betting tips.
Masters
Augusta National, the host of the Masters, is the only repeat Major location, giving golf bettors an exceptional opportunity to profit from historical course statistics.
US open
The US Open historically is the toughest scoring Major. Courses are designed to make birdies challenging to come by and par a good score to type in on the scorecard. Many US Open courses have deep, dense, rough, punishing golfers who miss fairways and greens. Webb Simpson and Justin Rose won the US Open in 2011 and 2012 with rounds over par, a far cry from the weekly birdie-fests seen on the two major circuits.
The Open
The Open (or British Open as Americans call it) is the oldest of the four golf Majors, established in 1860. This is the one all golfers desire to win on traditional British links golf courses. The strength of the coastal breezes almost usually determines conditions and scoring during the four days. Paidraig Harrington won with a +3 at Royal Birkdale in 2008 and a year earlier at Carnoustie with a -7!
USPGA
The USPGA Championship is the year’s last Major. This Major has recently been plagued by low scoring.
Other golf tournaments
The goal is to make enough cuts to earn enough money/points to stay playing for another year. The PGA keeps the top 125 players, while the ET keeps the top 110. It pays to keep an eye on golfers just within and outside these markers since journeymen golfers frequently surprise with top 5 finishes, often after repeated missed cuts (MC) – offering fantastic value for golf each way betting!
Without a card, players can’t pick and choose which events they want to play in, leading to weeks without competitive golf. When they do get to compete, it’s usually in lower quality fields with smaller prize pools, making it extra harder to get back into the top 125/110 on their circuits.
Some bookies, like Skybet, focus on lower-rated tours that allow golfers to progress to the main tours. The Web.com Tour is the second tier that leads to the PGA Tour, while the Challenge Tour leads to the European Tour. Most athletes who lose their full playing rights end up on ‘feeder’ tours with hungry young kids.
LPGA golf betting
Finally, most bookmakers now provide full golf each way betting service on all LPGA events, not just the Ladies Majors. The Ladies’ game has never been better, giving golf bettors another angle to make money.
Betting on match play golf tournaments
That covers almost 90% of the year’s golf schedule. In match play, golfers compete to outscore their opponents hole-by-hole, rather than a total of shots determined over 18 holes as in stroke play.
The Ryder Cup is the most famous match play tournament between Europe and America. Every two years, the finest players from Europe face off against the best from America in a three-day tournament totaling 28 points (each match worth one). The first two days feature 4 fourballs (better-ball) and 4 x foursome (alternative shot) pairs matches, with the third day featuring all 12 players from each side playing singles matches. The Solheim Cup is the women’s equivalent.
Two other international match play competitions exist, the Eur-Asia Cup (Europe against Asia) and the Presidents Cup (America v Rest of the World), none of which has captivated the golf betting online community like the Ryder Cup.
Conclusion
In contrast to some other sports, golf betting, at first sight, appears to offer limited Bitcoin betting options, but its simplicity makes it a sport that is ideal for simple wagers.
To succeed at Golf betting, you must have a basic grasp of the players; it takes a small amount of research and time to locate the correct players to bet on, but after that, it’s easy money. You have to put in some time to research before you learn how to use it, but the payoff is worth it.
