Black Desert Championship Betting Predictions:
Option 1: Beau Hossler (+3000)
Hossler was one of my selections last week at 50/1 and in devastating fashion he lost in a playoff. I’m going right back to him this week, he has consistently been playing good golf and has the ability to go very low. I know he was disappointed after last week’s result, but he should have plenty of confidence with how is game is trending and I expect him to have another strong performance.
Option 2: Erik Van Rooyen (+4000)
This number just seems to high for Van Rooyen in this field. EVR is a great ball striker and get in going with the putter. He has already had four top 10 finishes on the season and is coming off a good showing across the pond at the Irish Open. At 40/1 give me the Van Rooyen here.
Option 3: Michael Thorbjornsen (+4500)
For our longshot, we’ll go with the young 23-year older, Michael Thorbjornsen. Thorbjornsen showed he has the game to last week after finishing at 19-under-par and firing an opening round of 63. He can already hit the ball a mile but in the high altitude this week I am excited to watch the length on this drives. He should have plenty of birdie looks, give me the young man to get his first PGA Tour title this week.
