US Tour Golf betting - Children`s Miracle Network Classic
By Matt Knowles on 2009-11-12 10:29:33
This week one hundred and thirty-two golfers will descend on Walt Disney World Resort in Florida to compete in the Children`s Miracle Network Classic for a prize pool of $4.7 million. The event is played Pro-am for the first two days, with one round on Magnolia and one on Palm, before the professionals play Magnolia for the final 36 holes.
Iowa-born Zach Johnson is favourite for the tournament at 15/1. The American has eighteen professional wins to his name, this year has been his best yet, with $4.58 million in prize money and a scoring average of 69.88, and against a less than top-class field Johnson will fancy his chances.
Next most likely is Justin Leonard at 16/1. The thirty-seven year old Texan is without a win this year and has only achieved two fifth placed finishes, playing unspectacular golf in the Presidents Cup recently and winning less than half of what he did last season. However, he has proved he is capable and a return to form could see him as a real contender for this tournament.
Englishman Justin Rose is third favourite at 22/1. He may have been poor this year with no wins, only one top ten finish and his lowest winnings in five years, but he consistently performs on this course and has finished in the top four on two of his three visits, making him hard to rule out.
Tim Petrovic, at 33/1, is one of the few top players that have had a good year. He has finished thirteenth, seventh and third already this season and will look at this as a good chance to add to his only win to date, at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans in 2005, and will hope his form can take him past the class of some of his rivals.
Other notable players taking part are David Toms at 25/1, who has been a runner-up three times this year, Stephen Ames, winner two years ago, at 33/1, and many others including former winners Joe Durant and Ryan Palmer, both at 80/1.
