Fowler and Tony Finau, who lost the WGC-HSBC Champ... 

With most of golf’s star players headed to China for the WGC-HSBC Champions event, there are many up and comers staying in the states to compete in the alternate Sanderson Farms Championship, taking place on the 7,421-yard, par-72 Country Club of Jackson course in Jackson, Miss. The field has plenty of golfers capable of winning with the opening odds suggesting as much. Korean Sungjae Im opened as the slight favorite at +2035 with last year’s winner Ryan Armour coming in at +2315. As an alternat... 

Playing alongside the WGC-HSBC Champions in China, the Sanderson Farms Championship doesn’t get a lot of exposure. And with the top-50 golfers in the world qualified to play in Asia, the highest ranked player on the Country Club of Jackson course is No. 73 Dylan Frittelli. That ranking guarantees nothing for Frittelli, in fact it doesn’t even get him among the top-5 on the odds board at BookMaker.eu.... 

The world’s best golfers will gather this week in Shanghai, China, for the first of four World Golf Championship events. They’ll be competing for the WGC-HSBC Champions trophy on the 7,261-yard, par-72 Sheshan International Golf Club. With the stakes higher and the purse larger, many of the top players in the world are set to make an appearance, and that includes the top three in the Official World Golf Rankings and four of the top five. At +625 Dustin Johnson is the betting favorite. DJ just lo...

The Asian swing of the PGA Tour stops on Jeju Island in South Korea for the CJ Cup at Nine Bridges this week. Fresh off being named the PGA Tour player of the year, Brooks Koepka is among the favorites to win the second-ever event and should give defending champion Justin Thomas a run for his money. Thomas came off as the betting favorite at +550 odds. Marc Leishman looks to make it two wins in a row after taking the CIMB Classic by five shots with a 26-under total last week.... 

In the middle of its three-week swing through Asia, the PGA Tour takes on The Club at Nine Bridges in South Korea starting Oct. 18 with the second annual CJ Cup title at stake.

Horschel comes into this event playing well and Moore has won this tournament twice. Let’s look at the odds and matchups for this week’s CIMB Classic....

The 42nd Ryder Cup gets underway on September 28 with Team USA looking to defend its title against Team Europe at the Albatros Course of Le Golf National just outside Paris, France. The United States broke a three-match losing streak with a 17-11 win at Minnesota’s Hazeltine Golf Club in 2016, and they are favored at -155 at BookMaker.eu to repeat. However, Team USA hasn’t won in Europe since 1993, so the challenge will be a formidable one....

Let’s look at the odds and matchups for this week’s PGA Championship. ... 

Not only can you bet on who you think will win the PGA Championship which begins on Thursday, you can also bet the head-to-head matchups and you can bet the props.
