Aaron Rai Masters The PGA Championship

If you had Aaron Rai (Titleist Pro V1) winning the PGA Championship, you are a genius. His odds ranged from 150-1 to 290-1. He showed absolutely nothing in his recent form or overall this year to indicate he was ready to do something big. Yes, he placed fifth prior to the PGA Championship in the ONEflight Myrtle Beach Classic, but that was a tournament for players who weren’t eligible for the Truist Championship. So how could you realistically bet on Rai to win the PGA Championship?

And here we go again with the second of the four majors on the PGA Tour. Will the PGA Championship be another battle between Rory McIlroy (TaylorMade TP5) and Scottie Scheffler (Titleist Pro V1)? I’m hoping it won’t be.

Continuing my theme of betting on the PGA Tour – last week I told you about my buddy Andy Bankuti and how he touted Keegan Bradley (Srixon Z-Star) to rise up the rankings but forgot to push the send button on him ahead of the ZOZO Championship in which the odds were 40-1 – this week I’ll talk about a PGA Tour suicide pool that resulted in another bad beat.
