2009 US MASTERS GOLF BETTING TIPS
The second day of the Masters sees Tiger Woods and other major names a little off the pace. Tiger Woods, who is at two under going into the second day is still favourite for the US Masters. His impressive resume makes him a stand out with odds of 9/5 at Bet365.
However, he was a tipped favourite last year and lost by 3 strokes to Trevor Immelman, despite Immelman’s double bogey on the 70th hole.
The other big players are Phil Mickelson (35/1 at SkyBet – not completely out of the running at 1 over ), Sergio Garcia (80/1 at PaddyPower) and Padraig Harrington (10/1 at William Hill).
Our initial tip has to be Phil Mickelson. Mickelson is in good form again this season and, having already won it twice, knows what it takes to win the big prize.
