It’s Brooks Koepka’s and Rory McIlroy’s tour, Tiger Woods is just playing on it … for now. With the first round of the 2020 PGA Championship just a few days away, Koepka’s odds to win the tour’s first major of the 2020 golf betting season are +1000 (or 10-to-1), tied with Justin Thomas as the favorite to win, while McIlroy’s +1400 odds are well ahead of Woods’ who currently checks in at +3000 (or 30-to-1) at Bovada and +2800 at BetOnline. In fact, Koepka’s and McIlroy’s futures odds heading into each of the three PGA majors are ranked among the top three favorites to win. However, as we learned just last year at Augusta National Golf Course and during the final round of The Masters, with Tiger Woods, anything is possible.
PGA Championship 2020 Odds
Here are the favorites to win the 2020 PGA Championship at San Francisco’s TPC Harding Park. The first round is slated to tee off Thursday August 6th.
| At Bovada | At BetOnline |
|---|---|
| Brooks Koepka +1000 | Brooks Koepka +1000 |
| Justin Thomas +1000 | Justin Thomas +1000 |
| John Rahm +1400 | DeChambeau/McIlroy/Rahm +1400 |
| Rory McIlroy +1400 | Xander Schauffele +1800 |
| Tiger Woods +3000 | Tiger Woods +2800 |
Prior to the PGA’s pandemic pause, Woods was playing some great golf with three top 10 finishes through his first four tournaments. However, in his only appearance since the season restart, he shot 6-over at the Memorial Tournament in Columbus to finish 40th. It’ll be interesting to see if that solo tournament tune-up will cost Woods come this weekend at the PGA Championship.
U.S. Open 2020 Odds
Here are the favorites to win the 2020 U.S. Open at Winged Foot Golf Club September 17th-20th.
| At Bovada | At BetOnline |
|---|---|
| Rory McIlroy +800 | Brooks Koepka +1000 |
| Brooks Koepka +1200 | Rory McIlroy +1000 |
| Dechambeau/D. Johnson/Rahm +1200 | Jon Rahm +1200 |
| Justin Thomas +1600 | Dechambeau/D. Johnson +1400 |
| Tiger Woods +1600 | Tiger Woods +2200 |
Though it’s been awhile, and several reconstructive surgeries later, Woods has struggled at Winged Foot in the past. He finished tied for 29th at the 1997 PGA Championship and actually missed the cut at the 2006 U.S. Open.
The Masters 2020 Odds
Here are the favorites to win the 2020 Masters tournament at Augusta National Golf Club, November 12th-15th.
| At Bovada | At BetOnline |
|---|---|
| Rory McIlroy +700 | Rory McIlroy +750 |
| Dechambeau/Rahm/Thomas +1200 | Brooks Koepka +1200 |
| Tiger Woods +1200 | Dechambeau/Rahm/Thomas +1200 |
| Brooks Koepka +1400 | Tiger Woods +1400 |
| D. Johnson / Cantlay +1600 | Dustin Johnson +1800 |
Tiger Woods’ five green jackets are an impressive wardrobe and clubhouse closet collection, but speaks of the past and not of the challenge before him this November down in Georgia. Heavy favorite, and rival, McIlroy ripped off six consecutive top 5 finishes to start the 2019-20 PGA season. Since returning to the course back in June, he’s placed outside the top 30 in four of his five events. As for Koepka’s season reboot, the big guy’s been all over the map with a 7th-place and 2nd-place finish paired with two missed cuts.

Introduction
Tiger No Commission Baccarat is a commission-free baccarat variant that pays 1 to 2 on a winning banker total of six. The game can be found at the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore. What sets it apart is that it adds five new side bets, all of them high house edge sucker bets. This page explains all the rules and breaks down the odds of the new bets the game brings to baccarat.
Rules
As usual for baccarat games, I capitalize the names of bets, including Player and Banker, and use lower case for the people playing the game, to avoid confusion.
- Tiger No Commission Baccarat follows the standard drawing rules as in conventional baccarat, which I will assume the reader is already familiar with.
- The 'Nepal variant' of Commission-Free Baccarat is followed on winning Banker bets, in which wins pay 1 to 1, except a winning total of six pays 1 to 2.
- As in conventional baccarat, the Player bet pays 1 to 1 and the Tie bet pays 8 to 1.
- The following side bets are added:
- Tiger Pair — This bet shall win if the Player and or Banker hand form for a pair in the initial two cards, according to the pay table below.
- Tiger — This bet shall win if the Banker hand has a winning total of six, according to the pay table below.
- Small Tiger — Pays 22 to 1 only if the Banker has a winning two-card total of six.
- Big Tiger — Pays 50 to 1 only if the Banker has a winning three-card total of six.
- Tiger Tie — Pays 35 to 1 only if the hand ends in a 6-6 tie.
Following is the pay table for the Tiger Pair bet. Wins are on a 'to one' basis.
