The long awaited
betting on the Ryder Cup takes place in
September at the K Club, County Kildare in
Ireland. In an event which takes place every two
years, the leading American and European golfers
compete for the premier team golf event. Betting
on the Ryder Cup is now massive all over the
world and many bookmakers offer a variety of
special bets to mark the occasion. |

This Ryder
Cup event between the US and European golfers takes
place this year at Kildare Golf and Country Club in
Kildare, Ireland.
Europe is the defending champion, having beaten the US
18 ½-9 ½ at Oakland Hills, Mich., in 2004. The Ryder Cup
is contested over 28 matches, each worth a point.
Players compete against each other, not the course, and
the score reflects the number of holes won. The winning
player or team receives one point, and each participant
receives a ½ point in the event the match is tied after
18 holes. Friday morning there are four four-ball
matches, with foursomes in the afternoon.
Captain Ian Woosnam's European team likely will be the
sportsbook favorite to retain the Cup. Golf bettors may
see the world's
top two players, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, on
captain Tom Lehman's US squad, but Europe features
better depth and has
dominated this event in recent years. With veterans like
Sergio Garcia, Jose Maria Olazabal, Colin Montgomerie
and Darren Clarke,
the Europeans will be tough to bet against. |

The 36th Ryder Cup Tournament was held between
September 22 and September 24, 2006 at The K
Club, Straffan, Co. Kildare, Ireland. Team
Europe won the competition by a score of 18 to
9, equaling their record winning margin of 2
years earlier. This was the first time Europe
had achieved three successive victories.
Straffan, County
Kildare, Ireland - When Luke Donald rolled in a
three-foot putt at the 17th to win his match
against Chad Campbell Sunday, that gave Europe
14 1/2 points, the number needed to win the
Ryder Cup-again.
The European side captured the Ryder Cup by a
final score of 18 1/2 - 9 1/2, which matched the
largest margin of victory by its side that was
established the last time around in 2004 at
Oakland Hills. |

Betting
on golf is at its most exciting during one of
the four majors: The Masters, U.S. Open
and PGA. in the U.S., and the British
Open. With the exception of The Masters which
is always played at Augusta, Georgia, the venue
for these events rotates among a group of leading
courses.
Golf
betting is available on PGA, LPGA
and European Tour events, The Masters, the
U.S. Open, the British Open, and the Ryder Cup,
which in recent years has become highly competitive
with the outcome frequently coming down to the results
of the last few singles match-ups.
Betting
on golf has increased dramatically in popularity
over recent years. Two different types of bets
are offered; the first is betting on the winner
of the event with odds, generally ranging
from about 7/1 to 70/1, being offered on all players.
These odds are then adjusted after each round
of play. Secondly, there are match-ups in
which two or more players are hypothetically matched
against each other, either on a round-by-round basis
or over the entire course of the tournament.
