    Tiger Woods odds - attractive ?

    teeing off in Florida - this is a Tiger Woods Foundation event.
    He won it last year. Tiger has changed his swing, there is video
    and of course plenty of news online. Woods hasn't played a
    tournament since early August when he was cut in PGA Championship.
    He's been working 4 hrs/day with new swing coach Chris Como, is fully healed from
    April back surgery, and pours over old VHS tapes of his junior days.

    anyone else see value in Round 1 ? Jason Day ranks 9th, Woods 24th but
    Woods will be very fresh.
    tee time 12:15 although bet may have earlier cutoff depending on your book.
    -115 for today's round, -105 vs Day for tournament, and 14-1 to win tournament,
    while Day is 15-1.

    Yeah but if he does prove it, the value will be gone next next opportunity you have to place a wager. I think it makes sense to take a shot small here.

    I can't resist this one. He looks healthy and has had 3 months off.
    He holds the course record, and used to live across the street.
    btw on odds he is also +100 over Matsuyama for tournament.
    taking him half for today and half over each Day/Matsuyama
    for tournament in parlays with other stuff.

    I laid some small coin on +1.5 for first round and tournament based on your guys theory of he may be ready. Hope he at least show up round1 so i can get my money bk from the tourney wager because it is a tough field. Also laid a little on Speith taking a chance.

    Snowy don't force angles if they aren't there

    Tiger is like the Lakers of golf you will see some great shots from a guy who used to be great

    but at the end of the day the scorecard still gonna end up in the trash can

    yeah but my 5d is tied up with a massive parlay. i will hit 1,068 to 1 odds if Bill Cassidy wins tomorrow
    in Louisiana runoff. until then i am only going to use gtbets, not fund another book
    and they don't have shot spreads. if he loses by 1 today it won't kill me.
    Tiger knows this course like brushing teeth, he's Tiger f'n Woods.
    it's his charity and i want to watch him.

    the points count, but not the cash.
    anyway the bet is off to a bad start.. Woods can't even tee off without being harassed
    by cameramen.

    Welcome back Tiger: Camera click sound heard on the first tee. Woods elects to hit a second ball after bad first shot. #Golf

    double-bogey by Day just made things more interesting.

    Tiger? There is no Tiger, only a guy named Eldrick.

    It was great to be a golf fan during his 10 year run.

    Now, he has no confidence and nobody has any fear of him.

    He'll play well next year as long as he stays healthy. Obviously that's a huge if.

    Tiger needs a few strippers and a Denny's cocktail waitress to get his mojo back. Guy is playing like he hasn't had a piece of pussy in years.

    I hammered Day. Betting against Tiger has been $ all year. Odds are always low because like the Yankees people are tied into betting on what was once greatness.

    I don't think Tiger is overpriced anymore

    Oddsmakers have him as an average golfer now

    Tiger isn't elite anymore should be at least 50-1 every event
