Els, Choi favored to win on different tours this weekendErnie the favoriteThe European Tour stages the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship this weekend, with many of the world's top international golfers taking part. The tournament takes place in Scotland, on the St. Andrews, Kingsbarns, and Carnoustie courses, and includes both professional and amateur players. Past winners include Colin Montgomerie (2005), Stephen Gallacher (2004), Lee Westwood (2003), Padraig Harrington (2002), and Paul Lawrie (2001). Prior to 2001, the tournament had been a three-man team competition. Golfers rotate through the three courses over the first three days of the tournament, with one professional player and one amateur making up a team. The field is then reduced to the top teams and players for the final round (which will be played at St. Andrews) - and both an individual champ and a team champ will be crowned on Sunday afternoon. Harrington and Montgomerie might be former winners of this event, but it's Ernie Els who is the oddsmakers' current pick to win the tournament. Els is listed at +600 to pull out the victory, while Harrington is pegged at +1600 and Montgomerie is at +2800. Other top odds have been given to David Howell (+1800), Vijay Singh (+1800), Henrik Stetson (+1800), and Ian Poulter (+2000).

K.J. Choi won this event last season, while Brent Geiberger picked up the victory in 2004, and Shigeki Maruyama was the winner in 2003. Choi is pegged as the favorite to be a repeat champ this year, at +2000 odds, while each of Maruyama, Tim Clark, Lucas Glover, Davis Love, Justin Rose, and Steve Stricker are listed just back at +2500.

He's off this weekend though - which gives everyone else a chance to grab a win. But Woods' scorching stretch has everyone thinking about next season - and the number of major tournaments he might be able to win. Here are the current odds for '07 Woods: How many Majors will Tiger win in 2007? Exactly 1 +125 Exactly 2 +275 Exactly 3 +800 Exactly 4 +2500 Exactly 0 +200 Before getting to his grand-slam quest, though, Woods will have to complete his 2006 schedule. Woods is next expected to compete in the HSBC Champions Tournament at Sheshan Golf Club in Shanghai in early November, with the Dunlop Phoenix Tournament, the PGA Grand Slam of Golf, and the Target World Challenge also penciled into his schedule. Watch for Woods to be the big favorite in those tournaments. --- by BetUS at 1800-sports.com on October 04, 2006
