Punters will have plenty of betting opportunities as the PGA Tour season concludes with the seventh and final tournament, the Children's Miracle Network Classic presented by Wal-Mart on November 1-4.

Formerly known as the Walt Disney Resort Classic, decent odds should be available for a bet on this event which has been renamed and marks the first time the Children's Miracle Network name has been prominently associated with a professional sports event.
However with golf's finest battling it out to win the event for numerous reasons, including a winning prize fund of $828,000, punters should be enticed into a bet with some great odds circulating on the betting front.

Participants will go into this Tour finale looking for a top 125 spot on the official money list, which would secure a place in the next season's Fed-Ex Cup, the potential for a top 30 place to earn a spot in the 2008 Masters and US Open, invitations to next year's Tour invitational events, while Official World Golf Ranking points are also up for grabs.

Punters pondering a bet should consider that over the past 36 years the event at Disney has seen six players clinch their first ever PGA Tour title, including Lucas Glover in 2005, while Tiger Woods, in 1996 and 1999, is among several players who have had multiple successes.

Therefore betting customers might well consider the odds of outsiders and those close to breaking into the top 125 or 30 on the money list when thinking about a bet, while it could be worth a bet on last year's winner Joe Durant will also be looking to retain his crown.

The betting odds of Vijay Singh, who won in 2003 and was runner-up in 2004, will be worth noting when betting, as he aims to close the gap on Woods at the top of the money leaders list with success on the Walt Disney resort's Magnolia and Palm Courses.
