Favoring Phil at Online Casino Sites
Phil Mickleson is the favorite this year going into the US Open at Pebble Beach
tournament despite more than a decade of Tiger Woods’ name taking the top spots
at the land and online casino betting companies. Woods’ name has actually taken
quite the beating this year as his personal problems hit the media attention
heavily and he has gone through some pretty nasty domestic situations in the
wake of very public cheating scandals concerning his wife. With Tiger’s
concentration shot for now that gives some of the other fantastic poker
professionals a chance to really perform well and take home a couple titles.
Phil Mickleson is the favorite to win this year according to several very
prominent online casino betting sites – which is actually the first time in over
ten years that Tiger has entered a competition and not been the favorite to win.
For Tiger this means that he has some ground to make up in both his golf game
and in the confidence of the online casino odds-makers. That being said,
Mickleson is the only golfer who has better odds than Tiger. Mickleson has top
odds with 7-1 while Tiger comes in at 15-2, slightly under Mickleson. Behind
both of these poker pros the online casino betting shops indicate that Lee
Westwood is not completely out of the game and has 12-1 odds of taking home the
US Open at Pebble Beach.
Tiger’s second place status in the rankings is a direct result of the fact that
Tiger has shown some pretty shaky play over the past several golf tournaments,
an indication that his personal problems are factoring into his game – a fact
that the online casinos and betting sites are certainly taking into
consideration as they offer odds on the upcoming tourney. |
