HSBC Champions tips - Please note that these are selected tips. Full portfolio of tips available from Nicspicks premium members mailing list only, where Brandon Stone featured at 100/1 last week.

He said: "I enjoy this course. It feels like it suits my eye of the tee and you can take advantage of a couple of those par fives out there if you hit good tee shots" - Bernd Wiesberger

Bernd Wiesberger 33/1 has the ideal course fit profile for Sheshan and has proven his suggested liking for the course with 17-35-9 finishes. The Austrian has won 3 times this season on comeback from injury and was on the podium last time out on a real ball strikers track in Italy. He won on a big hitters course at Renaissance in Scotland earlier in the year. He ranks 25th in strokes gained approach and 18th in Greens in reg on the ET this season.

Keegan Bradley 90/1 to win has been a headliner here before and comes in at a big price. Good showing last week at the Zozo including a 2nd round 63. Often flies out of the blocks. 66/1 1st round leader ew

The top Back to lay trade for the WGC HSBC Champions is Francesco Molinari at 80.00. Winner here in 2010 when he and Lee Westwood ran away from the field. Molinari is a little longer and less accurate than he was then but he is simmering at the moment and it's an ideal track for the Italian to get himself into contention. The plan would be to look at drip laying Molinari on the exchange between hole 18 and 54 should he feature......

What is expected Strokes Gained Course Fit ?

Bryan pioneered the concept of Expected Strokes Gained Course Fit (xSGF) in golf betting. xSGF can be predicted using my model below. For prospective golf betting tips it projects ahead of time how many shots a player is expected to pick up per round on average on a particular golf course. It's weighed against a neutral golf course of the same rating.

Golf Betting Tips Model

Input up to date player and course data (from the upcoming course fit manual 2024) into this interactive golf betting model. My course fit profiling model for golf betting tips uses highly evolved golf nuance and betting intuition, precise parameters and inputs based on Bayesian analysis, plus years of empirical evidence through observing, betting and documenting golf and stats.

What is Progressive Form in Golf Betting?

Progressive form in golf betting differs from current form in that players are showing a trend in the right direction in their recent scoring. Trending form has a high predictive value in golf betting and can also catch players under the radar at an inflated price vs their true betting odds.
