PGA Golf - BMW Championship RD 2: 3 Ball/Matchup Bets
SharpBets PGA Bets - BMW Championship
Sharp Bets' Josh Thomas brings you his favorite 3 Ball/Matchup bets for Round 2 of this week's BMW Championship
Before we get to the RD 2 Matchups, let's review how RD 1 went!
Sam Burns OV Oosthuizen/Ancer +230 Draftkings 0.5 Units
Man, Ancer played fantastic today, pushing Burns but it always helps to bet the guy who leads after round one. Win 1.15 Units
Harry Higgs OV Mickelson/Palmer +240 Fanduel 0.5 Units
Tough go for Higgsy today as Palmer remembered how to golf and Mickelson made enough birdies to get it done.
Lose 0.5 Units
Hudson Swafford OV Ortiz/Harman +275 Draftkings 0.5 Units
Swaff daddy kept his strong tee to green game going today and while Ortiz made a little run on the back nine, Swafford was able to hold on for the wind.
Win 1.375 Units
Patrick Cantlay OV Thomas/Morikawa +210 Draftkings 0.3 Units
Cantlay was en fuego on the back nine today and thankfully Thomas' putter cooled off on the back to let Cantlay steal this one after a slow start.
Win 0.63 Units
+2.666 Units in RD 1
RD 2 3 Ball Bets
Should be noted that when betting matchups you almost ALWAYS want to bet that ties are void. Ties happen way too often and why bring another variable into your bet.
Emiliano Grillo +240 OV Casey/McNealy 1 Unit Draftkings
LOVE this bet for tomorrow. Grillo led the field in Approach and Tee to Green in round 1 and just putted atrociously. He still shot a better score than Casey and McNealy and if he putts a little bit he could put up a really really low score.
Webb Simpson +125 OV Grace/Henley 0.5 Units BetMGM
Webb shot -5 today while Henley shot even and Grace is in dead last at +3. Neither Henley or Grace showed any signs of life statistically. Could feasibly bet this up to a unit but I'll kept it at a half.
Viktor Hovland +200 OV Koepka/Schauffele 0.5 Units Draftkings
Hovland hit every single green in regulation today and only shot -2. That's really hard to do here. Brooks was TERRIBLE with his irons today and was all putter while Xander was solid all around. Definitely some risk here but the value at +200 is really strong for Hovland and statistically RD 2 is his Hovland's best round.
Hideki Matsuyama +140 OV Na/Kokrak 1 Unit Draftkings
Neither Na or Kokrak gained strokes anywhere today (Kokrak gained 0.18 strokes putting but I'm not counting that) while Deki was strong everywhere shooting -5. Just a big mismatch here and Deki should be closer to +100.
Total Units Risked: 3 Units
