PGA European Tour Maybank Championship Betting Tips and Advice
2016 Open Champion Henrik Stenson has not played a stroke event in Malaysia since 2005 but do not let that deter you from backing the 41-year-old in breaking into the top ten come Sunday. The Swede is the star name in the field, but it is a recent form that has impressed the most and makes him one of the top Maybank Championship bets to get involved in. Top 10’s at the HSBC Championship and last week’s Dubai Desert Classic makes the man with the hottest 3-wood in the game almost a certainty to make it a hattrick with Stenson favouring the dry heat and quick fairways. Stenson continues to live up to his lofty name and that makes him a shoe-in as we have mentioned in our best golf betting previews to get the job done and threaten the leaderboard for the third tournament in a row. Thanks to Betway possessing some of the best odds on Maybank Championship, backing Stenson with them is a smart way to go.
Hao-Tong Li may have just shot to fame by winning last weeks Dubai Desert Classic, but the talented man from Hunan, China has been making waves in the sport ever since turning pro in 2011. Li’s big break came when he won the Volvo China Open in 2016 and has seen pressed on and shot up to number 32 in the world and become the highest ranked Chinese player of all time. Currently riding a crest of a wave, Li to win each way offers significant value with 888Sport and worth a look at the Maybank Championship outright winner odds at that price. However, that may be a stretch too far. The 22-year-old will face stiff competition from Kiradech Aphibarnrat and Jeung-Hun Wang for the top Asian crown, but right now there are few players hotter than Hao-Tong Li but a top five looks a great option.

However, when he is on form and full of confidence, Levy is a world-class act capable of beating any field anywhere in the world. Fortunately, Levy is on fire right now and has been knocking on the door for the last two weeks with a seventh and fourth place in the last tournaments respectively. He also finished fourth in this tournament last year and performs well in Asia having claimed last season’s Volvo China Open. Backing the 27-year-old for the outright win could prove to be one of the most valuable bets at the some of the best odds thanks to EnergyBets in-depth golf markets. Levy is an enigma but crack it, and he could prove to be one of the best Maybank Championship betting tips of the weekend.
