<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Two Clear Favorites</h2>



<p>When looking at the betting odds to win the BMW Championship, there are two names that stand out right away. These are the two golfers that continue to be favored every single weekend, but that doesn’t mean that they have been winning every title.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Scottie Scheffler is once again the betting favorite this weekend as he has odds sitting at +320 to come away with the title. Xander Schauffele is the other golfer that tends to be favored, and his odds are sitting at +550 to come away with the win.&nbsp;</p>



<p>These two are well ahead of the rest in the race to win the FedEx Cup Playoffs, but they do need to start playing some good golf. Betting odds to win the BMW Championship will change after each round, but these two will always remain in the mix.&nbsp;</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Other Contenders</h2>



<p>Since this is the second event of the FedEx Cup Playoffs, there will be a ton of pressure on every single golfer to come away with a win. The <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/s/betonline/">betting</a> odds do fall off in a big way after the two favorites, but there are some other talented golfers in the mix. </p>



<p>Rory McIlroy just has not proven that he can win big golf tournaments this year, but he still has odds sitting at +1200 to get this done. Collin Morikawa is another player that always has some good odds, and his odds are at +1400 to win the BMW Championship.</p>



<p>It would be wise to at least consider Hideki Matsuyama at +1600 to win this tournament as he has a ton of momentum. Viktor Hovland is also sitting at +1600, and he is another proven winner in this sport.&nbsp;</p>



<p>If any of the golfers listed above are able to make an early run in Round 1 then they could easily become the betting favorites.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Picking a Winner</h2>



<p>There is going to be some great golf played at the BMW Championship, and the course will be set up in a way that will produce some great scoring opportunities. This should have the best golfers putting up a very low score, and it’s going to add to the excitement.&nbsp;</p>



<p>At some point Scottie Scheffler is going to prove his dominance yet again, and this could be the perfect opportunity for that to take place. There will be a ton of great action taking place in Colorado, but going with Scheffler at +320 is going to be the bet to make.</p>

BMW Championship Preview

We are at the point where the poll numbers could change all the time. And what you see in at least one of these polls is that Donald Trump has been making things tighter between himself and Joe Biden.

Right now the folks at <a href="https://record.commissionkings.ag/_SwFIINNFoTmu11z-n_bVh2Nd7ZgqdRLk/1/"><strong>BetOnline</strong> </a><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>have Biden listed as the -190 favorite, with Trump priced at +165</strong></span>. What this translates to is an implied probability of 64.3% for Biden, and a 37.7% probability for Trump. Do you think the incumbent president has a better chance than that?

An IBD/TIPP poll updated on Monday has Biden holding a lead of 48.8% to 45.6% in the popular vote. This represents a two-point gain by Trump in a little over a day.

In the Northeast Biden has a comfortable lead. But Trump is ahead in the South, which was expected to be a Republican stronghold.

The battle for the independent voters is a key, without a doubt. And Trump holds a 45.6% to 43.6% lead, according to this IBD/TIPP poll. He is also ahead 46.8% to 44.6% among Hispanics.

Maybe you aren't familiar with this particular poll, because it is not one that a lot of outlets talk about. However, it deserves respect because it is one of only two national polls that forecast a Trump victory in 2016.

And then there is the matter of the difference between what certain national polls may say and what Trump's internal polling indicators. When one sees media outlets such as CNN or NBC get involved with polling, one might assume that there is a certain bias associated with them. Such may have been the case four years ago. And while Trump's own campaign is naturally biased, his polls revealed more truth than what the public was being shown.

That's a factor here.

Many Trump voters may actually be apprehensive about advocating for their candidate. So they may not be so quick to give their opinion. The assumption is that when someone is being called to participate in a poll, since they're a registered voter, the pollster has an idea of who that person is. There may be a reluctance to talk about issues like safety and looting and rioting and Antifa and Black Lives Matter, while liberals and/or Democrats aren't as shy at expressing their hatred of Trump. Let's be honest about that.

And when you hear about the concept of a "silent majority," that's what they're talking about.

When it comes down to it, the big factor is how Trump is going to perform in the battleground states. The numbers, as we mentioned, change all the time, but things may be pretty tight in all of these.

There are states that are going to be in the Trump column and others that are going to be in the Biden column. That is pretty much a given. But the ones up for grabs will decide it.

Let's take a look at a few:
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>FLORIDA (29 electoral votes)</strong></span></h3>
<strong><a href="https://record.commissionkings.ag/_SwFIINNFoTmu11z-n_bVh2Nd7ZgqdRLk/1/">BetOnline</a> Odds: Trump -160, Biden +130</strong>
<em>(all these expressed as "Republican and "Democrat")</em>

This is what Trump touts as his "home state." According to a RealClearPolitics (RCP) composite poll completed over the weekend, Biden was holding a 48%-47% lead. Trump won this by 110,000 last time, and he did that even though Hillary Clinton had a lead in most polls. Hispanics will be a factor in the southern part of the state; this includes many Cubans, old and young, who distrust Democrats going all the way back to John F. Kennedy and the fumbled Bay of Pigs invasion.
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>MICHIGAN (16 electoral votes)</strong></span></h3>
<strong>Election 2020 Odds: Biden -260, Trump +200</strong>

According to the RCP poll, Biden is leading by six points (50%-44%). If you recall, this is where Trump came through the back door with a late rush to steal it from Clinton in 2016. It's an industrial state, and Trump continues to preach about business and jobs, while the Democratic focus seems to center around the dangers of COVID-19 and the virtues of social distancing, which hurts business. That may help Trump's cause. This is where he's going to have to do well among African-Americans.
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>WISCONSIN (10 electoral votes)</strong></span></h3>
Trump-Biden Odds: Biden -290, Trump +230

This was a real surprise last time, as it broke late for Trump. Biden is a 50%-44% leader in the RCP poll. There is said to be far fewer voters who are undecided - or uninterested - than last time. This doesn't look real good for Trump, but we wonder whether the fallout of rioting and violence after the Jacob Blake police shooting will win over some voters who may not be saying so.
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>MINNESOTA (10 electoral votes)</strong></span></h3>
<strong>Election 2020 Odds: Biden -400, Trump +300</strong>

This may be the most intriguing state of them all. Trump lost Minnesota by 45,000 votes in 2016. But a lot has happened since then, as we know.

Joe Biden is ahead 48%-43% in the RealClearPolitics poll. But there are a lot of things that could affect this result, and they may not have been the subject of conversation between pollsters and registered voters.

The dynamic created by the police murder of George Floyd and the destruction of Minneapolis will have a very real effect. Unquestionably there are some citizens and business-owners who are rightfully scared. That may work in favor of Trump, who wanted for the beginning to restore order to the beleaguered city. At the same time, he refused a request for federal money to the tune of half a billion dollars to clean things up, and that may work against him.

So what happens in the end? This may be a difference-maker that comes out of nowhere.

Election 2020 -- Biden Still Favored....But Trump Closing

<p>Races, Grand Prix, and Championships are won using courage and an eye for opportunity. Tyler Reddick saw an opportunity, dared to go for it, and dove down the inside, stealing the win at Kansas from Denny Hamlin and Erik Jones, claiming a spot in the Round of 12 and jumping to second in the Cup Series Championship standings.</p>



<p>Reddick led a top-five at Kansas, rounded out by Hamlin, Jones, Kyle Larson, and Team Penske’s Joey Logano (+1400).</p>



<p>With Tyler Reddick and Kyle Larson guaranteed spots in the Round of 12, the Cup Series returns to Bristol for the final chance for drivers to make the cut with Martin Truex Jr., who started the playoffs as the co-top seed, facing elimination. Bangthebook has our picks to win and finish in the top five at the NASCAR Bass Pro Shops Night Race.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-return-of-the-hendrick-motorsports-three-headed-hydra">The Return of the Hendrick Motorsports Three-Headed Hydra?</h2>



<p>All three Hendrick Motorsports drivers are among the favorites to win at Bristol, with Chase Elliott (+1000) joining current Championship leader Kyle Larson (+550) and William Byron (+750) as the top Chevrolet contenders to win and challenge for the top five.</p>



<p>Larson has one race win (2021) and two top-five finishes since the playoffs began - an identical record to his last two races at Bristol. Larson is the betting favorite and will be in the mix for the win in the dying laps.</p>



<p>Byron has two top-five finishes in the last four races at Bristol, with an average finishing position of 13.0. While he’s coming off a disappointing 15th-place finish at Kansas, Byron has two top-five and three top-ten finishes in his last four races, which includes a win at Watkins Glen.</p>



<p>Chase Elliot has four top-ten finishes in the last five races but may be receiving a boost in his chances to win last year’s results at this race, where he finished second. Elliott has one top-five and two top-ten finishes since February 2020 at Bristol, with an average finishing position of 14.0.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-denny-hamlin-and-joe-gibbs-racing">Denny Hamlin and Joe Gibbs Racing</h2>



<p>Denny Hamlin (+800) is leading Joe Gibbs Racing’s playoff push as Martin Truex Jr. (+1600) has faded into potential playoff elimination after two races in the Round of 16, finishing outside the top 15.</p>



<p>Hamlin is currently third in the NASCAR Cup Series Standings and has two stage wins and a second-place finish since the playoffs began. With a strong history and two previous wins at Bristol (2012, 2019), Hamlin has five top-three finishes in the previous eight races and will be fighting in the top five.</p>



<p>Teammate Christopher Bell (+800) has the same odds as Hamlin and has one top-five and two top-ten finishes in the last four races at Bristol. Bell finished eight at Kansas, his third top-ten finish in the previous five races. Notably, Bell won Brsitol’s Spring Dirt Race.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-rfk-racing">RFK Racing</h2>



<p>BangtheBook likes both RFK Racing drivers to compete for the win on Saturday, each having won at Bristol previously.</p>



<p>Brad Keselowski (+850) won this race in 2011 but has one race win and two top-ten finishes in the four races at Bristol since February 2020, with an average finishing position of 13.5. Keselowski has two top-ten finishes in the Round of 16.</p>



<p>Chris Buescher (+1200) won this race in 2022 and has a very similar recent record at Bristol as teammate Keselowski: he has one race win and two top-five finishes, with an average finishing position of 13.8. Buescher finished 27th at Kansas but has five top-ten finishes (four top-three) in the previous seven races.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-23-xi-racing-s-tyler-reddick">23 XI Racing’s Tyler Reddick</h2>



<p>Tyler Reddick’s playoff performance so far in 2023 deserves a spotlight. Reddick (+1400) has finished in the top two in both playoff races. Reddick only has one top-five finish and an average finishing position of 19.8 in the previous four races at Bristol but finished second in the Spring on the Dirt.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-bangthebook-s-nascar-cup-series-bass-pro-shops-night-race-pick">BangtheBook’s NASCAR Cup Series Bass Pro Shops Night Race Pick</h2>



<p>Bangthebook is taking RFK Racing’s Brad Keselowski to win at Bristol, with Larson, Buescher, Reddick, and Hamlin to complete the top five.</p>

<p>The WTA 125 Montevideo Open, a tournament held on red clay courts at the Carrasco Lawn Tennis Club in Montevideo, Uruguay, began on December 4 and concludes this weekend. It is the third edition of the tournament and there is $115,000 in prize money up for grabs. There is just one player inside the top-100 rankings in the tournament, but the possibility for some exciting tennis action this weekend as the quarter-finals are set.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-montevideo-open-history">Montevideo Open History</h2>



<p>The first Montevideo Open was played in 2021. Diane Parry, the top seed in this year's tournament, won that year by defeating Panna Udvardy 6-3, 6-2 in the final. Diana Shnaider won last year's tournament, defeating Leolia Jeanjean 6-4, 6-4 in the finals. </p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-miriam-bulgaru-vs-renata-zarazua-nbsp">Miriam Bulgaru vs. Renata Zarazua&nbsp;</h3>



<p>Renata Zarazua, the second seed in the tournament and No. 135 player in the world, reached the quarters with dominant wins in the first two rounds, beating her opponents 6-0, 7-5 and 6-0, 6-0. Miriam Bulgaru, meanwhile, had a tougher time in the second round, beating Eva Vedder 3-6, 6-2, 6-2. Bulgaru and Zarazua have never played each other on the WTA Tour, but Zarazua, as the higher seed with the better overall record in 2023 (60-30 compared to 43-27) is the safe pick here. She has the second shortest odds to win the tournament.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-maria-loudes-carle-vs-julia-riera-nbsp">Maria Loudes Carle vs. Julia Riera&nbsp;</h3>



<p>It's an all-Uruguay matchup as one of Maria Loudes Carle and Julia Riera will be competing in the semi-finals, potentially giving the home fans a chance to cheer on one of their own in the final. Carle is the betting favorite in this match and for good reason. She's 2-0 against Riera and has a 28-20 games advantage over her. Carle is coming off of a dominant 6-0, 6-1 victory and Riera needed three sets to beat Turkish player Ipek Oz in the second round.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-diane-parry-vs-solana-sierra">Diane Parry vs Solana Sierra</h3>



<p>Parry, the 2021 champion, has had a relatively easy route to the quarters, beating both of her opponents in straight sets. Solana Sierra, meanwhile, needed three sets to win her second-round match. Sierra is the seventh seed in the tournament and has never played Parry, but has the better record this season (55-21 compared to 41-35). She's also a clay court specialist, so there's a strong chance of an upset here.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-robin-montgomery-vs-ylena-in-albon">Robin Montgomery vs. Ylena In-Albon</h3>



<p>This is the lone quarter-final match without a seeded player. American Robin Montgomery has had a strong showing thus far, beating Leyre Romero Gormaz and third seed Martin Capurro Taborda in straight sets. Ylena In-Albon, the betting underdog, also has straight set victories, but is the more experienced clay court player.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-finals-predictions">Finals Predictions</h2>



<p>The best bet here to win the tournament is Zarazua, the second seed who has the easier draw to the final. Although Parry is the top seed, it's easy to see her falling in the quarter-finals. If that were to happen, Zarazua should have a clear path to win the tournament. Regardless, she's playing well enough that she should be able to beat whomever she plays in the semis and finals, assuming she takes care of business in the quarters.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: </strong>Zarazua def. Sierra (<em><a href="/s/betdsi/">bet this match at BetDSI</a></em>)</p>

WTA 125 Montevideo Weekend Tennis Preview

The West Virginia Mountaineers and Texas Tech Red Raiders have both been hurt by the COVID-19 pandemic. And that may be a factor as they clash as part of ESPN's "Big Monday" coverage. It's a 9 PM Eastern time tip-off at the WVU Coliseum in Morgantown, and if you are a <a href="http://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betanysports"><strong>BetAnySports</strong> </a>customer, you will be able to get reduced juice for better odds. Then, after the game begins, Sports Betting Prime will give you the opportunity to do real-time wagering, thus enhancing the experience.

Here are their college basketball betting odds on this game:

<strong>West Virginia Mountaineers -1.5</strong>
<strong>Texas Tech Red Raiders +1.5</strong>

<strong>Over 136.5 points -110</strong>
<strong>Under 136.5 points -110</strong>

Texas Tech, carrying an 11-4 record (6-9 against the spread) is ranked 12th by the Associated Press. The Red Raiders were delayed by the postponement of a couple of games, and as a result last played nine days ago, when they lost a 68-60 decision to second-ranked Baylor at home.

West Virginia is 10-4 straight-up and 7-7 against the number. They are 14th in the AP rankings. And they were also a victim of postponements of games, and sat out two weeks before coming back with a 69-47 win over Kansas State.

There are those who would say that Texas Tech is bound to be a little rusty coming into this one, having had to stay out of competition for the previous eight days. And there is a point to be made there. But this would probably be a bigger problem if the Red Raiders were a team that relied on perimeter shooting.

Everybody is going to shoot threes in this day and age. But that constitutes less than a third of their field goal attempts and less than a quarter of their total points (the national average is quite a bit higher).

Fresher legs help with the overall defensive effort, we're figuring, and Texas Tech is fourth in the nation in Adjusted Defensive Efficiency (according to KenPom).

Aside from that, they have known that West Virginia was going to be the next opponent since Thursday, while the Mountaineers had to play Kansas State on Saturday.

But <a href="http://bangthebook.com/s/bas"><strong>BetAnySports</strong> </a>patrons should know there are "two sides" to that one as well. West Virginia was able to shake off some rust after two weeks off due to - you know what - but at the same time they have really had only a day to come up with a game plan to deal with the team that, interestingly enough, is the reigning national runner-up, if such a term actually exists.

Against Kansas State, West Virginia forced 28 turnovers. The Mounties took a blow at the start of 2021 when Oscar Tshiebwe, the sophomore forward who is a formidable rebounder and defensive presence, announced that he was leaving and transferring to Kentucky. And the idea of "Press Virginia" isn't necessarily all the way alive, as WVU is just 70th in defensive turnover percentage. Is the K-State effort an outlier? Or is it an approach they are taking with the loss of Tshiebwe?

The Mountaineers are playing a little "smaller" these days, with four perimeter players in the lineup. And one of the objectives is to be quicker on the defensive end. Maybe that works better. Either way, T-Tech isn't all that turnover-prone.

Actually, pressure is more the Red Raiders' game. They are seventh nationally in TO percentage on the defensive side. They're going to force West Virginia to shoot from the outside, because they collapse and do a great job inside the arc. Huggins' team is about average out there.

Texas Tech has allowed just 59.9 points per game, indicating that they play the "pace" game successfully as well. Defense enables them to compete on the road; they have scored victories at both Oklahoma and Texas - two teams that beat West Virginia by a slim margin.

WVU's offensive rebounding effort is going to suffer without Tshiebwe, a beast who pulled down 3.8 offensive boards per game. That swings an important edge to Texas Tech, particularly if the Mountaineers can't shoot lights-out. We'll take the points.
