  • BookMaker.eu Major week is here with a collection of the finest golfers in the world headed to western New York and Oak Hill Country Club for the 105th PGA Championship.

  • BookMaker.eu We typically see some of the PGA Tour’s bigger names get some work in ahead of a major, however that’s not the case this week with a weaker than normal field pegging it up at the AT&T Byron Nelson. And unfortunately the field got a little lighter earlier in the week with Jordan Speith announcing his withdrawal due to an injury. That leaves th... 

  • BookMaker.eu Serving as the final tune up before the second major of the season, the PGA Tour assembles just outside Dallas for this week’s AT&T Byron Nelson with a solid field ready to navigate TPC Craig Ranch. The eyes of Texas will be upon K.H. Lee, though, as he looks to become one of just a handful of players to win the same event in three successive... 

  • BookMaker.eu Following a thrilling weekend south of the border, Mexico Open champ Tony Finau along with several others makes the trip to North Carolina for the Wells Fargo Championship.

  • BookMaker.eu After a year away the Wells Fargo Championship returns to a familiar venue for the 2023 edition with Max Homa looking to become the first ever repeat titlist while going for his third win in the last four playings. The tournament switched courses last year with long-time host Quail Hollow Golf Club getting prepped for the Presidents Cup. Homa won for the second time besting a trio of golfers by two swings at TPC Potomac for his sixth career PGA Tour title. Rory McIlroy tees it up for the first time since missing the cut at the Masters topping the board as the betting favorite. McIlroy has had plenty of success at Quail Hollow over the years winning the event in 2021. The tournament always attracts a strong field and with designated status this year a number of the game’s best are in attendance.

  • BookMaker.eu Starting for the first time since his triumph at the Masters earlier this month, world No. 1 Jon Rahm is a huge favorite to repeat at the Mexico Open at Vidanta. The field has thinned out from previous tournaments with Tony Finau and Wyndham Clark the next favorites on the outright betting board. That doesn’t mean the rest of the full field doesn’t have a chance, but the way Rahm is playing it could be a foregone conclusion. His win in Mexico last year started a run of five titles in his last 20 PGA Tour starts. While this is only the second PGA sanctioned tournament, the event has been played since the 1940’s as the country’s national open with Vidanta Vallarta hosting for the first time in 2022. Rahm finished one swing better than a trio of players at 17-under and is a massive favorite to repeat in a matchup between the two favorites.

  • BookMaker.eu A four-time winner on Tour already this season, including his green jacket victory at Augusta earlier this month, Jon Rahm returns as the prohibitive favorite to successfully defend his title at the Mexico Open at Vidanta.

Runner-up to Rahm last year, Tony Finau faces the same fate as the second favorite. Wyndham Clark is the only other player with shorter than 20/1 odds. A full field of over 130 golfers will descend on the Greg Norman-designed Vidanta Vallarta, which is scheduled to host for the next two years.
