Betting Odds – Tournament matchup

  • PHIL MICKELSON -125
  • TIGER WOODS -105

Phil Mickelson, who is a -125 golf betting favorite in this matchup with Tiger Woods, is not working on a head of steam, or else he would have already overtaken Woods as the #1 player in the ceremonious World Golf Rankings. neither of these players was a very serious contender at the year’s fourth major, the PGA Championship, but Mickelson, like Woods, found his acknowledge proceeding into the off-the-course news this week, in the time running up to the Barclays.

Mickelson blasted Tim Finchem of the PGA about the disqualification of Jim Furyk from the Barclays, saying that he level victim to a rule that applied to only half the field.

Furyk had slept through his tee time for the pro-am on Wednesday. At the Byron Nelson Championship three years ago, Mickelson, who is priced at +1000 in the gold betting odds to obtain this week’s match, missed his tee time for a pro-am, but was given a gratis pass by the PGA.

Tiger Woods is in a place that is not all that familiar to him, ranked right now at #112 in the FedEx Cup standings, constant though when you look at the golf betting odds in requital for the Barclays, Woods, Mickelson and Rory McIlroy are tied for the #1 see as co-favorites at +1000.

Neither of those particular "ratings" are probably indicative of what he can do right now, but he has to step it up if he wants to continue in these playoffs. There are some changes being made.

Woods has started to countervail with a new omnibus, Sean Foley, and would seem to be putting him through something of a grief period to see if he wants to use Foley, who has also worked with Hunter Mahan, as a full-time coach.

Woods has gone nine straight tournaments without a supremacy, which strength not be big news to a lot of players, but is almost a sudden development in the course of him. While his ex-wife, Elin Nordegren, tells the press that she’s "gone through bottomless pit," Woods will try to get his game out of purgatory.

He’s got some bills to settlement, including the reported $100 million divorce settlement. So it’s indeed time to get to work, and a top ten finish would be a good fashion for him. Woods is priced at -110 o=in the golf betting odds to do a moment ago that.
