It’s no surprise that all the media talk in the build-up to the Presidents Cup has been dominated by golf’s eternal headline grabber, Tiger Woods. Woods, once the dominant force in the sport, has spent the last two years hitting the headlines for the wrong reasons. Revelations about his private life have been followed by injury woes and a disastrous loss of form. Tiger finally hit back at last week’s Australian Open.
Tiger looked like his old-self in the first two rounds and led the tournament going into the weekend. He played some fantastic shots and managed to sink some impressive putts but couldn’t quite keep it up for all four rounds. Woods ended up finishing in third place and his performance justified his wild card selection for this week’s Presidents Cup. With Tiger roaring back into form will he have a big impact at this week’s contest?.
Stan James makes Tiger Woods the 5/1 favourite to be the top USA points scorer while he is at 10/1 to be the top overall points scorer. Woods won all five of his matches at the 2009 Presidents Cup and is only one of three players to ever achieve this feat.
The most intriguing foursome of the opening day also features Tiger Woods. He partners Steve Stricker in a match against Adam Scott and KJ Choi. Scott’s caddie is Woods’s former bag-man Steve Williams, who has been very outspoken since his split from Woods. Williams went a step too far a few weeks ago when he made a racial slur towards Woods and despite shaking hands since there’s sure to be some tension out on the fairways. Woods and Stricker are 20/21 to beat Scott and Choi at StanJames.com.
Tiger Woods has enjoyed a great rivalry over the years with Phil Mickelson. StanJames.com have pitted the two against each other in a Presidents Cup match bet. Who will pick up the most points for Team USA. Tiger Woods is 20/21 while ‘Lefty’ is available at 6/4 with the tie 4/1. Plenty more tournament match bets are also on offer.
For the competition overall, it's as close as they come with both teams priced at evens to win the Presidents Cup with StanJames.com a top price 14/1 on the tie. The International team has only won the Presidents Cup once in the event's history. That win came in 1998 at the same venue as this year’s tournament and home advantage for their large Australian contingent could be the difference.
