2021 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship Odds Favor Lowry to Win in Scotland

The 2021 European Tour continues this weekend with the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship at St Andrews in Scotland. In the home of golf, several top players will compete. Including American Billy Horschel who is currently in second place in the Race to Dubai rankings. He is mentioned in the favorites by the 2021 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship odds. Along with Shane Lowry, the winner of 2019 The Open Championship.  The first edition of the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship was held in 2001, with a format based on the PGA Tour’s Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. This means each team consists of an amateur and a professional player playing two rounds at St Andrews and one each at Carnoustie and Kingsbarns. The cut is made of the top 60 professionals and the top 20 pro-am teams who fight for the top prize on Sunday at St Andrew's. In the former winners of the tournament, we can find Lee Westwood and Tyrrell Hatton who won here twice in a row. Last year’s event was canceled but now a very strong field is back including the 2019 winner, Victor Perez.

2021 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship Odds Mention Several Players As Favorites

Online sportsbooks in the UK offer the smallest odds, 17.00 for the victory of Shane Lowry. The Irish player took part in last week’s Ryder Cup. But he didn’t have too much success as a member of the losing European team. Now he can get a much better result in Scotland where he has two top 10 finishes so far. 2019 The Open Championship winner finished T4 in this year’s PGA Championship which was also his best result this season. Lowry is 29th in the Race to Dubai rankings but could move ahead on the list with a win now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aF6JBVudO7s American Billy Horschel is currently in second place in this ranking behind Collin Morikawa. Horschel aims to become the first US player to win the Race to Dubai. And he can make another step towards it with a victory. His odds to get his 8th professional win is 19.00 in the 2021 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. The 34-year-old is in great form this season for sure after winning the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play in March. While he also won the 2021 BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth two weeks ago.

Other Top Names Include Noren, Fleetwood, and Hatton

Alex Noren has ten victories in the European Tour and the odds of 19.00 on bet365 to get his next one this weekend. The Swedish player has already won another Scottish tournament, the 2016 Scottish Open, and generally performs well in chilly conditions. He also finished third at Dunhill a few years ago. This season Noren finished T4 both at the Rocket Mortgage Classic and The Northern Trust tournaments. With these results, he moved to 60th place in the world rankings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sm3wNm9ZrEY Online gambling sites in the UK offer the same odds for the victory of Tommy Fleetwood and Tyrrell Hatton as well. Both of them took part in the Ryder Cup where Europe suffered a huge, 19-9 defeat from the US. It will be interesting to see how they can recover from this disappointing result. Fleetwood has five European Tour wins so far, the last one from 2019. But the runner-up of 2019 The Open Championship has played well on this course before. Just like Hatton who won here twice before, in 2016 and 2017. The world No19 has a win this season from the 2021 Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship. And a T2 finish from the Palmetto Championship in the PGA Tour making him another top favorite.
