How Does Golf Betting Work?
Golf betting involves wagering on various outcomes in tournaments. Common types of bets include:
- Outrights: Betting on a player to win the tournament. This offers high payouts due to the large field of competitors.
- Finishing Positions: Predicting if a golfer will finish in the top five, 10 or 20. This increases your chances of winning but typically results in smaller payouts.
- Prop Bets: Wagering on specific events, such as hole-in-ones, head-to-head matchups or the winner’s nationality.
- DFS (Daily Fantasy Sports): Creating a lineup of golfers within a salary cap to compete based on their performance.
What Is PGA Golf & What Is the PGA Tour?
PGA Golf refers to professional events sanctioned by the Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA) of America, which organizes the PGA Championship, one of four major championships alongside The Masters, the U.S. Open, and The Open.
The PGA Tour is a separate organization that hosts over 40 tournaments annually. It features regular-season events where players earn points based on their performance. These points determine entry into the playoffs and the TOUR Championship. Playoff scoring is based on a strokes-based system, with the lowest total score winning, similar to standard tournaments.
What Is LIV Golf?
LIV Golf is a professional tour launched as a rival to the PGA Tour, funded by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund. Debuting in 2022, it attracted several Major champions but faced criticism due to its funding sources. The PGA Tour initially suspended players who joined LIV Golf. However, in 2023, a tentative agreement was announced between the PGA Tour, DP World Tour and LIV Golf, potentially allowing suspended players to return and signaling a significant shift in professional golf. This has not been finalized as of 2025.
