The 2018 PGA Championship
Back for more action on the last major of the year thanks to NJ making sports betting legal. I wish they would start offering an "each-way" bet which would allow me to cash at about 1/5th of the odds if a golfer finishes in the top 5 (just an example). William Hill says the bet is probably coming to a bookie shop here soon.
At any rate, these are my bets - win only and where the bet was made:
Rory McIlroy - $25 to win at 15-1; get back $400; Borgata in Atlantic City
Alex Noren - $15 to win at 50/1; get back $765; Borgata in Atlantic City
Francisco Molinari - $20 to win at 22-1; get back $460; Ocean Resort Casino in Atlantic City
I accept I probably missed the boat with Molinari but nobody is hotter and he was 20-1 at the Borgata. I've seen enough of Noren on the European Tour (thanks to the Golf Channel). If he is close, he can definitely close the deal. Rory won this championship twice before and comes here in good form. Still, I wish he wasn't playing with Tiger because Tiger draws such a huge crowd.
Anybody else have an opinion?
