Bob Hope Classic Bets

The Bob Hope Classic bets shall be kept to a minimum in the early season charity event. The Bob Hope is more about the celebrity rather than the golf and this tournament is really a New Year spectacle for Golf fans and is shown live this year on Setanta Sports. Mike Weir is the bookies favourite to keep his concentration and at odds of 15/1 he is not a bad bet. Scott Verplank, Chad Campbell and Justin Leonard are all next in at 16/1. But this is more about Charity than betting and in 47 years, the tournament has donated more than $43 million to local charities throughout the Coachella Valley.
