WGC-Bridgestone Invitational Course Guide
The tournament is being played at the regular venue of the South Course at Firestone Country Club in Ohio so there is a plenty of course form to assess. The track is a par 70 requiring long driving and accuracy to the relatively small greens. Players must then putt well to contend and hold their nerve with a huge prize at stake.
The average winning score over the last 10 years is 12 under in a range from five to 17 under. There has not been a play-off over that spell but on six occasions the winning margin was 1 or 2 strokes. The WGC-Bridgestone Invitational has a field of about just 75 players so there is no cut and everybody receives a cheque. The absent Tiger Woods is an eight-time winner but no other player has prevailed more than once.
WGC-Bridgestone Invitational Betting Markets
Bookmakers are offering many betting markets for this tournament including outright winner and 18 and 72 hole match bets. Customers with the major online bookmakers can bet on leading players from different parts of the world and the winning margin and the winning score. Players are grouped for betting purposes and the best score wins each group and dead heat rules apply.
Tips For WGC-Bridgestone Invitational
The favourite in WGC-Bridgestone Invitational odds is Jordan Spieth at 8/1 with Ladbrokes who arrives in Ohio after winning the Open Championship two weeks ago. He now just needs the USPGA Championship to become the youngest player to complete the career Grand Slam. That is probably his focus so he would take or leave another title week when he is on the cusp of making history so other players are preferred.
Here are our predictions for the world golf championships and Bridgestone Invitational betting tips:
Main Tip – Rory McIlroy
Rory McIlroy to win @ 9/1 – Sportingbet – The Open Championship was a case of the good, the bad and ugly for McIlroy. The former world number one finished joint fourth at Royal Birkdale and was the leading British player. McIlroy can be backed at 9/1 in the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational betting with Sportingbet and that is a bet worth placing due to his suitability to the host course.
Next Best – Sergio Garcia
Sergio Garcia for top 5 @ 13/2 – 10Bet – Sergio Garcia has the ideal skills profile in the context of the host course and is one of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational tips. Garcia is the main tip for a top 5 in the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational betting. The Masters Champion is currently at number seven in the standings for greens in regulation on the PGA Tour. He is above average in length from off the tee and has mastered his unusual putting technique. Garcia finally won his elusive first major at Augusta in April and has the game and confidence to get in the mix this week.
Leading Contender – Adam Scott
Adam Scott for top 10 @ 19/10 – William Hill – Tee to green Scott is one of the best players in the world and would have won more majors but for putting woes. The Aussie did win the US Masters in 2013 and is a regular top 10 finisher in the four tournaments that matter most. Scott won the Bridgestone Invitational event in 2011 with a score of 17 under which is a record after Woods’ 20-under master class in 2000 looks a good bet at 19/10 with William Hill for a top 10 finish but McIlroy is the main selection.
