Open de France Betting Tips

With just one tournament left before next week’s Ryder Cup, the 2025 Open de France provides the perfect stage for an outsider to land a victory while Europe’s stars take a breather.

This year, the event shifts from Le Golf National, closed for renovations, to Golf de Saint-Nom-La-Bretèche near Paris. The Fred Hawtree-designed par-71 parkland course, measuring 6,977 yards, first opened in 1959 and last hosted the championship in the 1960s.

Winner - Martin Couvra (Each-Way) (6 places)

After a quiet spell in mid-season, Martin Couvra looks to be hitting his stride again as the campaign reaches its decisive stages. 

The 22-year-old captured his maiden title in Turkey in May, building on early-season top-five finishes in Bahrain, Qatar and China. A near miss in Italy a month later, where Adrien Saddier denied him another trophy, further underlined his progress. 

Now sitting 10th in the Race to Dubai after a quieter summer, the Frenchman remains firmly in the hunt for a PGA Tour card next season. There’s still work to be done, and his national open this week offers a big opportunity to take another step forward.

Winner - Tom Vaillant (Each-Way) (6 places)

Another French player worth siding with is Tom Vaillant, who, like Couvra, had been struggling with his long game for a brief spell before signs of real improvement emerged at the Irish Open and carried through to the BMW Championship.

Saint-Nom-La-Bretèche should reward strong iron play, and Vaillant’s progress in that area has been clear over his last four outings. He picked up more than five and a half shots with his approaches at the K Club two weeks ago, then bettered that figure again at Wentworth.

Vaillant has never previously produced back-to-back ball-striking displays of that quality, and coming into his home open on the back of such form gives plenty of reason for optimism about his chances this week.

Winner - Dan Bradbury (Each-Way) (6 places)

Dan Bradbury defends his title this week and, despite the venue change, looks well placed to mount another serious challenge at the Open de France.

He missed five cuts in a row through July and August but has now made two of his last three, both driven by much sharper work into the greens - a skill that should prove vital on this week’s sub-7000-yard layout.

The last time the Englishman’s irons were this dialled in, he produced consecutive top-10 finishes back in June.

Winner - Dan Bradbury (Each-Way) (6 places)
Open de France
Bet £10 Get £60 in Free Bets. 18+ gambleaware.org. Spread betting losses can exceed deposit. Place a qualifying £10 fixed odds bet at odds of 1/2 or greater and get 3x £10 free fixed odds bets in consecutive days and 6x £5 free spread bets across consecutive days. Qualifying bet cannot be placed in-play or cashed out early. Free bets expire in 28 days if unused.

Winner - Manuel Elvira (Each-Way) (5 places)

Manuel Elvira has an excellent record on shorter setups and sits inside the top 10 in this field for tee-to-green performance over the past 36 rounds, making him a logical addition to the staking plan at what looks like generous odds.

A missed cut at Wentworth may have inflated the Spaniard’s price, but that looks forgivable given it stemmed mainly from a rare off week on and around the greens - typically one of his strengths.

PGA Tour Golf Betting Tips

Golf betting tips can give you an edge when it comes to golf betting on the PGA Tour, where value can be found beyond just backing the biggest names each week.

Smart golf betting isn’t just about form. Course history, weather, tee times, and even player confidence all play a role in performance. The key is recognising patterns and understanding when the odds don’t quite reflect reality.

Using strokes gained data, approach play stats, and putting performance on different greens helps shape more accurate golf betting tips. Some players thrive on certain layouts or in specific conditions, and identifying those trends is what separates sharp bets from blind punts.

Whether you’re backing a tournament winner, a top 10 finish, or a head-to-head, golf betting is as much about timing and detail as it is about instinct - and the best golf betting tips blend both to find the value others miss and give you the best golf betting experience possible.

DP Tour Golf Betting Tips

The DP World Tour features a global lineup of talented golfers competing across diverse and challenging courses, from the Middle East to Europe and beyond. Known for its international flair and rising stars, the Tour delivers exciting action throughout the season.

While we don’t offer golf betting tips every week for the DP World Tour, we do provide detailed insights and recommendations for the biggest events - think Rolex Series tournaments, national opens, and the season-ending finale.

For these marquee moments, we break down key stats, player trends, and course fit to help you make informed golf betting choices via our best golf tips when it matters most.

Major Championship Golf Betting Tips

The major championships - The Masters, PGA Championship, U.S. Open, and The Open - represent the pinnacle of professional golf. These historic events draw the best players in the world and are packed with drama, legacy, and prestige.

For the major golf tournaments, we go even deeper with my research and analysis, offering comprehensive golf betting tips that cover everything from course nuances and weather impacts to player mentality and past performances.

These are the moments that define careers, and my insights reflect the magnitude of the occasion. Expect detailed previews, value picks, and bold golf betting tips to help guide your wagers on golf’s biggest stages.

Golf Betting Markets

Golf betting offers a wide variety of markets and betting odds, making it an exciting sport for punters looking to test their knowledge and intuition.

Whether you’re a casual bettor or a seasoned pro, there’s something for everyone when it comes to golf betting.

We will of course offer golf betting tips across all of these markets - not necessarily at the same time - but just so you know what we're talking about in our golf betting tips, here is a little explainer of the main betting markets in golf.

Outright Winner

The outright winner market is the most straightforward and popular form of golf betting. In this market, punters place wagers on the golfer they believe will win a particular tournament. With a large field of participants, the odds are often generous, providing the potential for high payouts.

This type of golf betting requires thorough research - which we will provide in our golf betting tips - including player form, course suitability, recent injuries, and weather conditions. Major tournaments like The Masters, The Open Championship, and the Ryder Cup attract heavy interest in outright winner bets, making it a key focus for both casual and seasoned golf bettors and should feature in the best golf betting tips.

Each-Way Betting

Each-way betting is a popular option within golf betting, particularly when betting on large tournaments with big fields. This market allows punters to split their stake into two parts: one backing the golfer to win outright, and the other backing them to place within a certain range (e.g., top 5, top 10, or top 20).

If the player finishes within the specified range, the bettor receives a payout, albeit at reduced odds. This form of golf betting provides a safer approach, especially when wagering on consistent performers who may not win outright but regularly place high in tournaments.

Top 5/10/20 Finish

The top 5/10/20 finish market offers a more conservative approach to golf betting. Instead of predicting the outright winner, bettors wager on whether a player will finish within a certain placement range, such as the top 5, top 10, or top 20.

This market appeals to those looking for steadier returns, as it is generally easier to predict strong performers who frequently place well rather than win outright. In golf betting, this market is particularly popular for those betting on consistent golfers who may lack the killer instinct to secure a victory but often finish high on the leaderboard.

This market is one that will feature quite prominently in our golf betting tips, especially when it comes to picking some outside shouts in the big tournaments, so keep an eye out for some bigger prices in this market.

Head-to-Head Matchups

Head-to-head matchups are a straightforward and exciting market within golf betting. Instead of betting on the overall tournament winner, punters wager on which of two selected golfers will perform better over a single round or an entire event.

This type of golf betting is particularly appealing because it reduces the complexity of analyzing an entire field to just two players.

Bettors can compare stats like driving accuracy, putting success, and previous head-to-head results. Matchups are especially popular during major tournaments, where golfers’ performances are under intense scrutiny and individual rivalries often emerge.

First-Round Leader

The first-round leader market is one of the most exciting forms of golf betting, offering instant gratification for those looking for quicker results. Instead of waiting for the entire tournament to conclude, bettors place wagers on which golfer will lead after the first round.

This type of golf betting is often unpredictable but can yield substantial rewards due to the high odds. Researching players known for fast starts or those who excel on particular courses can be advantageous.

This market also appeals to bettors who prefer day-by-day betting strategies rather than waiting for the final outcome of a tournament, and is another market that features quite regularly in our golf betting tips.

Other Golf Betting Markets

So those are the main markets you'll find covered by us in our golf betting tips, but what about the smaller markets?

Be careful, you might not find all of these markets with your choice of online betting site, but if you can then there is plenty of value to be found along with the golf betting tips on offer.

Betting Without

Quite often in the past, there has been one dominant player on the PGA Tour which means that heading into majors or even just PGA Tour events, the result can seem a foregone conclusion.

However our golf betting tips will cover that, so you can bet on certain players to win the tournament if you take that favourite out of the equation.

So if Scottie Scheffler or Rory McIlroy are dominating all the golf betting markets in the build-up, you might find our golf betting tips are backing someone like Tommy Fleetwood to win without that favourite - so basically, you need them to finish second.

Make or Miss the Cut

This market involves betting on whether a specific golfer will make or miss the cut after the first two rounds of a tournament. It’s a popular option because it provides a result halfway through the event, offering a quicker conclusion than outright betting. Punters often use this market to bet on underdogs or struggling favorites.

Group Betting

In group betting, the bookmaker selects a small group of golfers (usually four to six), and you wager on who will perform the best among them over the entire tournament. This market is attractive because it narrows the field to a manageable number of competitors, making it easier to research and analyze.

Nationality Betting

This market allows you to bet on which golfer from a particular country or region will finish highest in a tournament. For example, you might bet on the top American, top European, or top Asian player. It’s especially popular during international events like The Open Championship or the Ryder Cup.

Hole-in-One Betting

This is a specific type of prop bet where you wager on whether there will be a hole-in-one during a particular tournament. Due to the rarity of a hole-in-one, the odds are often attractive. Alternatively, you can bet on whether a specific player will achieve one.

Winning Margin

In this market, you predict the margin by which a golfer will win a tournament, such as by one stroke, two strokes, or by a playoff. This type of golf betting can offer high odds and adds an extra layer of excitement when the tournament is tightly contested.

2-Ball & 3-Ball Betting

This market involves betting on the best score between two or three grouped golfers over a single round. 2-Ball betting is common during the weekend rounds when golfers are paired in twos, while 3-Ball betting is more common in the early rounds.


Free Golf Tips

The final point to make is that we offer free golf betting tips. We don’t hide them behind a paywall, and you don’t need a subscription to see them, so next time you are looking to bet on golf, check out this page, where you will find our best golf tips.
