US Open Betting Options

The US Masters Golf Tournament is one of the biggest betting events in sport. With the British and European success’s from a few years ago, the Tournament is avidly followed this side of the ‘pond’ and has provided an excellent source of additional revenue for the astute golf backers. The opportunities provided by the Bookmakers offer a wide range of options and there are many free bet offers and other incentives to be taken advantage of.

Outright Winner

The most popular bet is a bet on who you will think will be the outright Tournament winner. Needless to say Tiger Woods, who will be making his first Major appearance, since winning the US Open in 2008, will start as favourite. It will be noted on the US Masters Roll of Honour, that Tiger has already won this event four times and we all know that he has the ability to do so again. However there is a good chance that the Bookmakers will be more generous with his odds as he is making a Major’s comeback and could be vulnerable. Phil Mickelson has won the Tournament twice in recent years and may have the odds to attract an outright winners bet.

In-Play Betting

As we all know, the US masters will be played over four days on the magnificent US Masters Golf Course in Augusta, Georgia. The course often plays differently each day and the fortunes of the players changes accordingly. A player could lead by 4 strokes at the end of day one and have is outright odds clipped, but by the end of Day 2, he may have missed the cut! Therefore for the astute golf backer, odds are provided on a fluid basis when the players are out on the course and could change with every shot played. It is an excellent option.

Other Betting Options

Popular bets include:

• Three Ball and Two Ball Betting – This is simply having the ability to back one of a group of players who start their rounds together on any day. It can be backed as an accumulator, meaning you could pick several players from several different groups and have the odds of each totalled if they all win.
• Top International Player. It is an American tournament and the players will be predominantly American. However in the US Masters Field, you will notice that invitations are extended to many different players worldwide. Top International last year was winner, Trevor Immelman. He could have been backed to win and be top International player.
• Round by Round Leaders is also a popular alternative allowing you to select the Player you think will be on top of the leaderboard at the end of each day.

  The Betting options can be combined with the many US Masters Free bet offers. Click here for details.
