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.

“Is it a Titleist?” – Jerry Seinfeld shares never-before-heard details of iconic scene

Published

on

On Thursday, legendary comedian Jerry Seinfeld joined the Rich Eisen Show and shared an awesome story from a “Seinfeld” episode titled “The Marine Biologist.”

In the episode, a golf ball goes into the blow hole of a whale. According to Seinfeld, that was never in the episode’s script.

Seinfeld recalls saying the night before the filming of the episode, “What if what puts the whale in distress is Kramer’s golf ball?”

“He’s hitting golf balls at the beach. George is at the beach with a girl, we haven’t connected them!”

“We write that speech the night before at two o’clock in the morning…The sea was angry that day my friend.”

Kramer finishes the iconic scene by asking “Is it a Titleist?” Seinfeld told Eisen the show sought Titleist’s permission to mention its name, saying the ball had to be a Titleist. Fortunately for lovers of the iconic show, the company agreed.

If (somehow) you’re unfamiliar with the scene, check it out below.

Phil Mickelson drops big retirement hint; Says LIV will grow the game ‘on a much more global basis’

Published

on

While speaking with Bloomberg, golf legend Phil Mickelson acknowledged that he is inching close towards retirement.

“I’m 53 now,” Phil said, “and my career, you know, it’s — if I’m being truthful, it’s on — it’s — it’s — I’m a — it’s towards its end.”

Mickelson added that one of his focuses now is helping other young players.

“Now, I would like to help others find the same enjoyment and fulfillment that the game has provided me. I’d like them to experience that as well.”

The six-time major champion credited LIV with reaching new markets in golf to help it grow.

“I think that’s exciting for everyone involved in the game because we are going to reach markets that we didn’t reach before. I think it’s going to inspire more golf courses, inspire more manufacturers selling clubs and equipment, but also inspiring young kids to try to play golf professionally. I just see that the game of golf is going to grow on a much more global basis because of the excitement and the presence that LIV Golf has.”

Mickelson is playing at this week’s LIV Singapore and shot a first round 72 (+1).

Tiger explains why golf has ‘negative connotations’ for daughter Sam

Published

on

While Tiger Woods’ son, Charlie, has certainly inherited his father’s love for golf, his daughter, Sam, has not.

On Wednesday, Tiger made an appearance on The Today Show with Carson Daly and explained his daughter’s relationship with golf.

“Golf has negative connotations for her. When she was growing up, golf took daddy away from her. I had to pack, I had to leave, and I was gone for weeks. So, there were negative connotations to it.

“We developed our own relationship and our own rapport outside of golf. We do things that doesn’t involve golf. Meanwhile, my son and I, everything we do is golf related.”

The nine-minute interview touches on plenty of other subjects, such as Tiger’s relationship with his late father, Earl.

It’s arguably the most open we’ve seen the 15-time major champion in an interview and is most definitely worth watching.
