Our 3 best Presidents Cup bets
Patrick Reed to win Under 2½ Points +145
All eyes will be on Patrick Reed at Royal Melbourne this week, and Woods has shown plenty of faith in the Texan putting him out with Webb Simpson in Day 1’s fourballs. Despite Reed playing the opening day, I’d expect to see him appear a maximum of four times this week and there’s a higher chance we may see the 29-year-old just once more before singles action.
Reed as a dog to win under 2.5 matches screams value this week, who faces the International’s star player in Hideki Matsuyama in Day 1’s fourballs. Reed lost Day 1 at the 2018 Ryder Cup and played just one more time before the singles at that event, collecting 1 point in total for the week. With the crowd on his back, Reed to win under 2½ points at odds against is enormous value in Royal Melbourne.
Tiger Woods to go undefeated? Yes +350
I would be surprised if Tiger Woods played more than three matches this week. I expect him to sit both foursome sessions to concentrate fully on captain duties, and to appear twice in the fourballs before singles action. He’s paired himself with Justin Thomas which is a formidable duo, and they are the shortest-priced pair in today’s fourballs action as the books expect them to dispatch Leishman and Niemann.
Woods is also a heavy odds on chance to win his singles match, and you can expect to see him pair up in the second fourball matches with Thomas again. He will be favorite to win that match, and should he only play the three games in Royal Melbourne then +350 is an excellent price on the 15-time major champion going undefeated this week.
USA to win Day 2 -120
The U.S. in foursomes!? That’s right. This isn’t the Ryder Cup where Team USA continue to get smashed in foursome action, and their record in the format at the Presidents Cup is excellent. In the history of the event, the U.S. side has dominated foursome action, winning 78 points to the International’s 46 – the U.S. side’s most prosperous format.
Since 2005, the Internationals have won just ONE foursome session (2013) in the Presidents Cup. It’s a dismal record, so take the -120 that the U.S. win Day 2 down under.

LET pro gives detailed financial breakdown of first week on tour…and the net result may shock you
On Friday morning, Ladies European Tour player, Hannah Gregg, took to social media to share her weekly expenses playing on the LET.
Expenses of my first week on Ladies European Tour:
Flights: $2600
Work Visa: $350
Food: $377
Caddie: $0 because I have an amazing Fiancé
Hotel: $0 because @GregChalmersPGA sorted me host housing for the week! ?
Rental Car: +0 because the Tour Tee guys GAVE me their car ??…— Hannah Gregg (@hannahbggg) April 26, 2024

- Food: $377
- Caddie: $0 because I have an amazing Fiancé
- Hotel: $0 because @GregChalmersPGA sorted me host housing for the week!

- Gas: $165

- Lounge Pass for caddie: $50
- Gym: $0
- Yardage book: $0
- Total expenses: $3672
Made cut, finished 54th, total earned: $1244 Factor in 35% tax on earnings. To break even, needed to finish 24th. To make money, 21st. Guess we have our goals laid out for next event!”
When factoring in Gregg’s free housing, free caddie and free rental car, it’s evident that most LET players would have to finish well inside of the top-20 to make any money.
With ridiculous amounts of money being thrown around in professional golf these days, it’s important to remember the other side of the coin as well. There are countless professionals out there who struggle to get by on their golf salary.

54-hole golf tour deemed eligible for OWGR points…but it’s not LIV
After a seventeen-month application process, a 54-hole golf tour was deemed eligible for OWGR points.
Unfortunately, for LIV Golf and their fans, it was the Clutch Pro Tour.
After the decision, which is effective immediately, OWGR chairman Peter Dawson issued a statement.
“This is a significant milestone for golf, and OWGR is deeply encouraged by the achievement and the continued efforts in developing the sport of golf in the United Kingdom.”
“We look forward to watching the progress of the Clutch Pro Tour as it continues to play a key role in the development of players from the region,” Dawson added.

Charlie Woods attempting to qualify for spot at 2024 U.S. Open
As first reported by Bob Harig of Sports Illustrated, Charlie Woods will be attempting to qualify for this year’s U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2.
The first stage of qualifying for this year’s tournament will be an 18-hole local event on Thursday, April 25th, in Port St. Lucie, Florida.
There will be 84 players in the field, five of which will reach the 36-hole qualifier that will take place in June.
Earlier this season, Charlie attempted to qualify for the Cognizant Classic, and struggled, shooting an 86.
If the younger Woods is able to qualify, he will tee it up in the same field as his father in a few months at one of the more historic U.S. Open venues.
