Balanced against that are some opportunists that enjoy the challenge of finding a diamond in rough. Many gamblers are taking a wait and see approach. Most of all they don’t make serious bets until after the first round or two. Live betting type of handicapping could be a smart alternative.

Muirfield Village Golf Club
