UNDERSTANDING GOLF ODDS – HOW TO BET

It’s super simple to bet on golf with us at Grosvenor Sport. For all the potential golf bets you can make, you’ll see odds based on the probability of that bet coming in. How much you get on a winning bet depends on the odds at the time you make the bet.

HOW DO I BET ON GOLF?

You’ll see all our golf betting markets and golf odds right here on this page. Once you’ve chosen your bet, you’ll need to decide on your stake (how much you want to bet) and add it to your betslip. Having placed your bet, it’s just a matter of watching the golf to see if it comes in.

HOW DO GOLF ODDS WORK?

Ready to bet on golf with us at Grosvenor Sport? Firstly, it helps to understand what odds are and how they work.

At Grosvenor Sport, you’ll see all our golf betting odds shown as fractional odds. Say odds of 21/20 for Team USA winning the Ryder Cup.

Let’s take a closer look at what you need to know about golf betting odds.

CALCULATING IMPLIED PROBABILITY

Implied probability refers to the overall likelihood of a betting outcome in relation to the odds listed. It basically converts the odds into a percentage for the outcome of the bet actually happening. You can use a specific formula to calculate the implied probability from the odds.

It works like this for fractional odds

denominator / (denominator + numerator) * 100 = implied probability

Let’s look at the example of Rory McIlroy having odds of 9/2 to win the British Open. The equation would work like this

2 / 2+9 (11) * 100 = 18.18%

The implied probability of the event actually occurring would be 18.18% – which is just shy of a one-in-five chance.

CALCULATING PAYOUTS

Calculating your payout on a bet is quite simple. Let’s say you place a £10 on McIlroy to win. On a 9/2 bet you would win 4.5x your original stake – this would be £45. You would then also get your original £10 stake back for a total pot of £55.

WHAT ARE THE TOP GOLF COMPETITIONS?

There are so many top golf competitions and tournaments played throughout the year and around the world. It doesn’t get any bigger than the four majors – the Masters, PGA Championship, US Open and the Open Championship. These are the four most renowned golf tournaments and the most prestigious for the players involved.

Other top golf tournaments include the Ryder Cup. Held every two years, it sees Europe and the USA do battle. At Grosvenor Sport, you’ll also find golf betting markets and golf odds for tournaments including the Players Championship, the Tour Championship, the Arnold Palmer Invitational, and more.

EXPLORING GOLF BETTING MARKETS

At Grosvenor Sport, we have all your essential golf betting markets covered. You’ll find outright betting markets, which involve betting on the winner of a particular tournament. Plus, we have golf betting markets that cover individual matches or individual performances, whether you want to bet on the head-to-head between two players, bet on the number of hole-in-ones or the nationality of the winner.

TYPES OF GOLF BETS

Whether you want to bet on the Ryder Cup or any of the four majors, you’ll find the following golf bets available at Grosvenor Sport.

Head-to-head bets

With head-to-head golf betting, you choose which of two golfers will perform better in a specific round or throughout a tournament. The bet is based on the golfers’ scores relative to each other – the performance of the rest of the field doesn’t affect the outcome.

You’ll win your bet if the golfer you backed achieves the lowest score of the two in the round or tournament. If both golfers end up with the same score, your bet is void.

Outright bets

An outright bet in golf is a simple wager on which player you think will win a tournament. For instance, you might bet on Rory McIlroy to win the British Open. In the case of the Ryder Cup, an outright bet would be on whether Europe or the USA will triumph overall.

You’ll see outright golf odds on all the players in a competition before they tee off. But you can also place outright bets as the competition progresses.

Prop bets

A prop bet, or proposition bet, is a bet that doesn’t have an impact on the outcome of the contest. Popular golf prop bets include

  • The nationality of the winner
  •  Finishing positions of specific golfers – top 5, 10 or 20
  • Head-to-head bets
  •  Hole-in-one – whether any golfer will get one during a round or competition
  •  Cut line – whether a particular golfer will make the cut for the next round
  • First round leader
  •  Longest drive
  •  Most birdies

You’ll find golf odds on all these proposition bets right here with Grosvenor Sport.
