Betting the next John Deere Classic
An outright price is a chance written as a payout: +1600 implies 5.9%, +3000 implies 3.2% and +6000 implies 1.6%. A futures bet is worth making only when you rate a golfer’s chance higher than the price does. At a course where the winner has needed 18 under or better four years running, the golfers who make the most birdies are the ones to price first.
