    Hi everyone,

    Golf betting question for all. I bet on a round 2 PGA matchup (Harold Varner vs Chesson Hadley) through Bookmaker. Both players were playing different courses today. Hadley’s was a par 70 and Varner was par 72. Varner shot 70 (-2) and Hadley shot 70 (E). I believe this bet should have been graded as a win as golf is scored on strokes under par. However, the bet was graded a push. Bookmaker customer service is being very difficult and I am a long time customer. Please let me know your thoughts.

    Same tournament, but each player plays different courses the first 2 rounds. I don’t know why they would’ve offered this bet.

    very strange, usually they will only offer matchups of two golfers playing the same course for round matchups maybe they refunded this as they made a mistake that's why it was settled as a push

    Not sure what their actual rules are on this but since they are playing two different courses with par being different the only way to grade the bet is by score alone and not what each shot to par. In that case it is a push.
