By ROY LANG III, Journal Sports

Coming off a terrific week on the course and on the hardcourt. Our top selection, Matt Jones, finished second at the Valero Texas Open. That would have been a great win ticket, but the Top 20 was dazzling. We’ve been oh-so close to finding the winner’s circle on the links. In the NCAA Tourney, our only pick (Carolina-Duke over) was a winner.

But now, the real Super Bowl week is upon us. The Masters offers some significant value in many areas. We have win, Top 20, make the cut and miss the cut bets (I had to stop there). Just can’t figure out what to do with Tiger Woods. It’s hard to imagine he can be sharp enough to contend, or even make the cut? Just seems like a chance I’m not willing to take. But if you need TW action, Caesar’s is offering even money (+100) on him to make the cut.

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!
