Betting on Golf with totesport
totesport.com offers you a huge choice of golf betting opportunities. The game has grown significantly in recent years and nowadays there’s year round action from the PGA Tour, European Tour, Asian Tour, Champions Tour and LPGA Tour. This global growth has been boosted by the remarkable impact of Tiger Woods, who has arguably become the sporting icon of our generation.While the professional tours provide weekly entertainment and betting opportunities, the main golf betting tournaments during the year are without doubt the four Majors; the US Masters, the US Open, the Open Championship and the USPGA Championship. However, in recent years, the World Golf Championship or ‘WGC Series’ has provided more opportunities for the best players from the European and US Tours to compete against each other, and the US Players Championship always attracts one of the finest fields of the year, giving it the status of unofficial ‘5th major’. However, for sheer drama the bi-annual Ryder Cup matches between Europe and the USA usurps them all, and is a unique sporting event which brings together the continent of Europe in one common sporting cause. In September 2008 the USA will host the 37th Ryder Cup at the Valhalla Club in Kentucky.There are many ways to bet on golf from all the major professional tours at totesport.com.The outright winner and each way markets are very popular as you can often pick out a winner at a big price.
