Volvo Masters betting and odds

The Volvo Masters gets underway at Valderamma in Andalucia on November 1st and the concluding official money event of the European Tour will present a number of mouth-watering betting opportunities for customers.

The field consists of the top 60 leading money winners on the European Tour so choosing the right bet will not be easy.

Customers are spoilt for choice and trying to pick the winner will not be easy as the tournament has thrown up one or two surprise winners over the last few seasons.

Jeev Milkha Singh, who won the tournament last year, will be available at good odds to repeat the feat and triumph in Spain, although the event is wide open and there will be a hole host of players who will fancy their chances and will be worth a bet.

One good bet may be Open Champion Padraig Harrington, who currently tops the European Order of Merit and after winning the Volvo Masters back in 2001, will be well placed in the betting and his odds are likely to be relatively short.

Customers fancying a bet may look no further than Justin Rose, who has had a great season and will again figure prominently in the betting as the tournament approaches.

Ernie Els, Niclas Fasth and Henrik Stenson will also fancy their chances of doing well out in Spain, while Miguel Angel Jimenz may impress back in his homeland and should be available at good odds.

Those punters who do not fancy picking the outright winner can also have a bet on their favourite player to finish in the top five or 10, while betting on players to make the cut is also popular with good odds widely available.

The tournament is sure to be a closely fought battle and following a tough season on the European tour it will be interesting to see who has the stamina to pull off a victory.
