Ricoh Women’s British Open Course Guide

The tournament is usually played on a links course but it was at the inland course at Woburn last year. Kingsbarns is to the southeast of St Andrews and is a seaside course that can be affected by the wind. It is a true all-round test of a player’s ability and calls upon accuracy more than distance for good scoring. The par for the tournament is 72 and the course is about 7,200 yards in length.

The Ricoh Women’s British Open has been recognised as a major since 2001 and in all of four of those years, the tournament has been played on a links course. The nature of the course has a direct bearing on British Open predictions. The average winning score over the last ten years is 10 under in a range from 1 under to 18 under. This should be taken into account when assessing ladies British Open betting for the winner’s score.

Ricoh Women’s British Open Betting Tips

Main Tip – Lexi Thompson

Lexi Thompson has the best form profile for this week’s Ricoh Women’s British Open and is one of the British Open picks. The favourite can be backed at 10/1 with 10Bet. Thompson is just 22 but already has 11 professional titles to her name. Since the start of 2014 she has played in 18 major championships, never missed the cut and recorded 11 top 10 finishes which make her one of this week’s British Open predictions.

Next Best – Cristie Kerr

Cristie Kerr for top 5 @ 5/1 – William Hill - Cristie Kerr is proven at a major championship level and on links courses so looks overpriced at 25/1 with William Hill to win the Ricoh Women’s British Open. Kerr has won 19 events on the LPGA Tour in total including two majors. She has made the top 10 five times in this week’s events so deserves to be one of our British Open picks.

Shanshan Feng to Get to the Top 10

Shanshan Feng for top 10 @ 2/1 – Ladbrokes – Shanshan Feng has been consistent in this season’s majors to date with three top ten finishes in the tournaments that matter most. She led the US Open after three rounds and would have finished higher but for a poor final hole. If Feng gets in contention again she could get the job done this time and looks good value for a top 10 in the British Open odds.
