  • BookMaker.eu Under normal circumstances, this would have been the week of the Olympic golf tournament. That was scrapped thanks to COVID.

  • BookMaker.eu With the WGC inviting only 78 players there is a need for another event. Voila, the Barracuda Championship fills the void as an alternate tournament.

  • BookMaker.eu The return of five-time winner Tiger Woods to competitive tournament play only strengthens an already stellar field at the Memorial Tournament.
