Alexander Levy will try and win in back-to-back weeks on the European Tour and he is listed as the favorite in the Volvo China Open. Levy will have to contend with local favorite Haotong Li who is the second choice in the betting along with European Tour veterans Kiradech Aphibarnrat and Bern Wiesberger. We are coming off a 3-2 week with last week’s picks at the Trophee Hassan II. Let’s look at the odds and picks for this week’s Volvo China Open.

Volvo China Open Matchup Picks
Before we get to the picks there are a few things to consider. This event has been played at Topwin for the past two years but this will be the first time the event is not part of a China swing, as the Shenzhen International was dropped from the schedule. That means players will be going straight from Morocco to China. Levy won last year’s event by shooting 17-under par. Haotong Li won this event by shooting 22-under par two years ago.
Haotong Li +115 vs. Alexander Levy
I said in the odds preview that I think Li should be listed as the favorite this week. I simply don’t like taking players to win in back-to-back weeks very often. Li has played well in this event in the past including a win two years ago and he was solid in defense last year with a tie for 11th. I give Li a decent chance to win this event so I definitely like him in this matchup at plus money.
Jeunghun Wang -115 vs. Hideto Tanihara
Wang played well last week in Morocco and he has played well in China in the past. Tanihara has played better of late, but I like the way Wang is going right now and we get him at a short price.
Julian Siri -115 vs. Shubhankar Sharma
I am going against Sharma in the next two matchups. Suri played well last November and finished second in Hong Kong. He is definitely capable of beating a European Tour field and he goes against a player in Sharma who has not played well of late. I will take Suri in this matchup.
Thorbjorn Olesen -115 vs. Shubhankar Sharma
Olesen has played well at Topwin in the past with a tie for 15th and a tie for 31st. He has three top 10 finishes in China in his career. I will lay the small price and take him in this matchup against Sharma.
Jorge Campillo -130 vs. Alexander Bjork
I liked Campillo last week and he didn’t play as well as expected, although most of that was due to a poor final round 76. He has played well on this course in the past including a tie for 9th last year. Bjork missed the cut in this event a year ago. I will lay the price and take Campillo.
Thomas Detry -115 vs. Ryan Fox
Detry was in the top five after two rounds in this event last year before falling to a tie for 48th. He has played well in China in the past including a tie for 10th at the Hong Kong Open last year. He has finished in a tie for 39th or better in six of his last seven starts. Fox missed the cut in this event a year ago and tied for 63rd two years ago. I will take Detry in this matchup.
