Welcome to the Butterfield Bermuda Championship! This is a tournament lacking star power near the top, and sportsbooks have tried to minimize their exposure to this event when you look at some of the hold percentages across the industry.
I don’t know about you, but that doesn’t sound like my ideal four-day weekend of golf gambling. However, there might still be a few ways we can sneak value out of this event.
132 players are in the field, and while the event does lack Stat Tracker – a tool used to highlight and show how a player is performing in all critical metrics for the week – doing our own in-depth research and recalculated projections might give us an edge in various markets pre-event over those who take a basic approach.
We see that potential come into play when we look at the long-term data for wind, par-3 scoring and historical performances at short venues. I created a model that placed a higher emphasis of importance on those categories than you will almost ever see from me at a weekly PGA TOUR track.
