Betting Highlights
Favorite Bet of All-Time
Ironically, even though golf is not a major sport I bet on, betting Alexa Pano to win the ISPS Handa World Invitational remains a top memory. At +15000, and with a Sunday morning showdown that saw Pano stave off two others in a playoff, it is my top betting memory.
Most Heartbreaking Bet
Once again in the world of LPGA, one of the books mixed up two sisters, Nelly and Jessica Korda, giving keen-eyed bettors a chance in a H2H matchup that should've been close to 50-50, more at something like 90-10. Of course, Lydia Ko missed her first cut in *years* and the books, despite making a MASSIVE mistake, still profited off of a truly terrible mistake on their part.
