LIV Golf Miami Team Championship Picks
Favorite
4 Aces 2-1
I don’t like betting favorites in golf because they simply don’t pay off well enough to make money and I don’t know that I want to back 4 Aces at this price. I know Johnson is capable of dominating this course and Reed has played better, but who knows what you will get with Gooch and Perez. I can definitely understand 4 Aces being favored, as they are the top seed and won the regular season title, but I just don’t see any value in them at golf betting odds of 2-1.
Darkhorse
Fire Balls 4-1
I really have no idea what to expect from this team, as they could flame out quickly or win the title. It is all about getting hot at the right time and this team looks to be all or nothing to me and that might be a good thing in this type of event. We definitely get better odds than those of the favorite. I will take them as the darkhorse in this tournament at odds of 4-1.
Live Longshot
Punch 14-1
I really give Punch a chance to win this event and we get odds of 14-1. They have one of the top players in the world in Cameron Smith and we know that Leishman can play with anyone. If Punch can get some solid play from Jones and Ormsby then I give them a real chance to win the title and it is definitely attractive to get double-digit golf betting odds.
