Phoenix Open Tips: Scheffler backed in and two former Major winners poised to contend

Phoenix Open Tips: Scheffler backed in and two former Major winners poised to contend

Scottie Scheffler is behind only two-time Phoenix Open and reigning Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama for total single stakes on golf this week through oddschecker.

The 25-year-old American (best price 25/1) has also attracted the third most single bets after Matsuyama and Corey Conners, one of the Phoenix Open tips from Niall Lyons earlier this week.

You can still get 50/1 through oddschecker on Conners as the Phoenix Open tournament winner, but he has been cut to a best price 45/1 if you want eight rather than six each way place terms.

Former Major champions at long odds

Meanwhile, 2019 US Open champion Gary Woodland – another of Lyons’ Phoenix Open tips – has been shortening with many bookmakers but is still available at 100/1 with eight places on Sky Bet.

Sticking with former Major champions at long odds, 2011 PGA champion Keegan Bradley is holding firm in the market despite some positive signs from his recent outings.

Lyons said of his chances: “I'm looking to keep on the right side of Keegan Bradley this week given how impressive his long game has been of late. He has seven top 20s in his last 17 events and can be considered a little unfortunate not to be better than that lately.

“At the Sony when finishing 12th, he ranked 13th in Approach and 1st in Tee to Green. More good form followed at Torrey where he finished 16th in Approach and 28th Tee to Green.”

Langasque stands out for UAE bets

Meanwhile, only two players from the Ras al Khaimah Classic make the top 10 for total single bets through oddschecker in Rasmus Hojgaard and Thomas Detry, Lyons' two picks for the event.

Interestingly, though, Romain Langasque has attracted the most in total single stakes among those teeing it up in the UAE. He is a best price 35/1, but only 25/1 with eight place each way terms.
