After his victory at the Valspar Championship, Sam Burns withdrew from the WGC-Match Play Championship in Austin, Texas. However, with the tournament start on Wednesday, we have a special Tuesday edition of Lang’s Locks!
Nothing special last week, as we lost a little more 1 unit including our NCAA Tournament bets, but we still have live tickets on Arizona and Houston.
At the Match Play we have some Group Bets and some Win Bets. The field of 64 is divided into 16 pods of 4 and they will play round-robin over the first three days. The winners of the Groups advance to the Sweet 16.
We also have the alternate PGA Tour event and some European Tour action as well. Watch out of Sahita Theegala at the Corales Puntacana Championship. The former Pepperdine star has been knocking on the door often in his young career. Good luck this week! We will be back Thursday for some NCAA hoops.
Notes
All bets are measured in units. For instance, if your normal bet on a game is $100, that is one unit. If the bet is listed as .2 units, it’s a $20 bet.
Best line (as of Tuesday) is listed in parenthesis. Find the best price, one key to being a successful sports bettor! Shop around!
