It&#8217;s just high seeds beating on low seeds for now, and the PGA&#8217;s Traveler&#8217;s Championship has a better field than you may expect.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s have a look at some of the more interesting <a title=\"PGA Golf Gambling Picks\" href=\"\/pga\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>PGA golf gambling picks<\/strong><\/a> this week on the links.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here is a five-pack of golfers with a chance to win:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lucas Glover<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Travelers odds: +3350<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s a long shot, but we&#8217;ll start with him since he&#8217;s all over the golf news after winning the U.S. Open as a 175-1 underdog. He likely made a select few people rich last week, and some bettors want to cash in this week. Be careful; winning the U.S. Open over five days at Bethpage Black is probably a draining experience.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t be surprised if he&#8217;s exhausted, as euphoric as he may be.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hunter Mahan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Travelers odds: +1415<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s rare &#8211; maybe a first &#8211; to see Mahan as the No. 1 favorite in a tournament, but the sports predictions experts are justified in giving him top billing. In his last three visits to TPC River Highlands, host of the Travelers, Mahan has a win and two second-place finishes.<\/p>\n<p>History doesn&#8217;t get any better than that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kenny Perry<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Travelers odds: +2050<\/p>\n<p>Enough with the Perry hype. Yes, he&#8217;s a superb ball striker and yes, TPC River Highlands is a relatively easy course that rewards good shot makers. But it&#8217;s time to remove the rose-colored glasses!<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/baff.betonline.com\/aspx\/affiliateGetImage.aspx?ID_SC=2225&amp;ID_I=1646\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As good as Perry has been over the last few years, that Perry disappeared at the Masters. Since then, he hasn&#8217;t finished in a top 20. Stay away.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stewart Cink<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Travelers odds: +2250<\/p>\n<p>The defending champ definitely has a shot to win this week. He looked solid at the U.S. Open and has cracked the top five 10 times in 11 starts at the Travelers. The track record is there, but can he keep up with the aggressive players who know they can rack up birdies here?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Anthony Kim<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Travelers odds: +2550<\/p>\n<p>Sleeper time. To call 2009 disappointing for Kim would be an understatement. He took the Tour by storm last season and many <a title=\"sportsbook software\" href=\"http:\/\/payperhead.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sportsbook software<\/a> developers projected him as the next great challenger for Tiger. After a second-place at the Mercedes to start 2009, however, it&#8217;s been all downhill for Kim. Yet there&#8217;s reason for optimism.<\/p>\n<p>He was solid at Bethpage last week, tying for 16th. More importantly, he has the peripherals you want in a golf betting pick for the Travelers. He leads the Tour in birdie-conversion percentage and he&#8217;s third in birdie average. At a forgiving course like River Highlands, that aggressiveness should pay off. I like Kim to get the monkey off his back this week.<\/p>\n<h3>2009 Travelers Championship Prediction<\/h3>\n<p>Daily sports pick: Anthony Kim +2550<\/p>\n<h3>LOOKING TO BET ON THIS WEEK\u2019S U.S. OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP?
