Golf Open Championship Betting – PaddyPower Paying 7 places Each Way

July 6, 2009 by Ben Filed under: Sports Betting

Whilst some bookmakers offer just five places on the biggest golf betting event of the year Paddy Power are again leading the way down the fairway to payout on the first seven players at the top of the final leaderboard. An each way bet pays 1/4 odds at Paddypower.

With Tiger Woods in fine form after his win at the AT&T National over the weekend the world number one is just 2/1 to win at Turnberry next week, which if the betting is to be believed could make the each way odds to seven places that Paddy Power are offering all the more valuable.

Paddy Power, spokesman for the bookie, said: “In this day and age it’s crazy that bookies try to get away with offering five places for The Open – why would you sign for a bogey when you’ve been offered a birdie?

“Golf has thrown up so many surprise winners in the last few years that punters need a run for their money at the majors so it will be interesting to see which of the other bookies follow us down the fairway with this offer.”

Each way betting when there is a strong favourite usually represents good value. There’s not much point in betting on the favourite Woods but any other golfer represents value, especially as Paddypower are paying each way up to seven places.
