GOLF BETTING TIPS US PGA CHAMPIONSHIP
 
PLAYING FOR SECOND PLACE
WITH TIGER FOUR AHEAD THE REST ARE PLAYING FOR 2ND
Tiger Woods holds a four shot lead going into the third round of the US PGA
Championship. It looks very unlikely that anyone will be able to over turn this lead and
so they will be playing for second place. There are 5 players at 3 under par but a further
19 golfers are within 3 shots of second place.
 
MARTIN KAYMER HAS WON FOUR TIMES IN EUROPE IN THE PAST TWO SEASON
 
We have found two players who offer good value to finish second. First up is German Martin Kaymer who looks to
have the making of a future major champion. He has already won four titles on the European Tour in the past two
seasons including back to back wins this year at the Open de France and Scottish Open. These wins have helped
Kaymer to 2nd place in the Race to Dubai and a good performance here will see him over take Casey at the helm.
 
Kaymer is an excellent ball striking and has the power to cope with Hazeltine's length. After a poor opening round
of 73, a two under 70, which matched the score of Tiger Woods yesterday afternoon, sees Kaymer at -1 par just two
shots off second place. Bet 365 have Kaymer at 25/1 in their market without Tiger Woods and are still offering 1/4 the
odds for a top 4 finish. This is good value for a player who has such a bright future ahead of him.
 
YE YANG IS ON SUPERB FORM FINISHING T8 - 5 - T19 IN HIS LAST THREE TOURNAMENTS
 
Our second pick to perform well over the weekend is Korean Y.E. Yang. He burst onto the scene in 2006 when he
beat Tiger Woods by two shots to land the HSBC Champions event. This shot him into the top 40 of the World
Rankings and he has been improving ever since. After winning his card for the PGA Tour Yang has been making
great strides this season. He won his first event on the PGA Tour this year at the Honda Classic.
 
His recent form has been superb finishing T8 in the Canadian Open. He followed this up by finishing 5th at the Buick
Open just two weeks ago. Then last week he got off to a poor start at Firestone shooting two rounds of 72. However a
superb weekend wrapped up with a final round of 66 saw Yang finish in the top 20. He is clearly on top form and at
odds of 50/1 for a player who is right in the mix to finish the winner without Woods is great value.
