The market, read in numbers

The bookmakers made Xander Schauffele favourite for the Baycurrent Classic at 10/1. That is an implied 9.1% before the margin comes out, and 8.0% once the book is normalised back to 100%. On that number this is a moderate favourite rather than a standout, with Wyndham Clark next in at 16/1.

The five shortest players in the market share 26.9% of the win chance between them, which leaves 73.1% spread across the other 67 priced players. That is an unusually flat market. When no small group of players dominates, a model that prices the whole field has more room to disagree with the bookmakers. 36 players are priced at 100/1 or bigger.

Take the best price available on every player and the overround on this market is 7.7%, or 6.9% once the each-way terms are valued properly. The cheapest single bookmaker on this event is Betfair Exchange at 12.2% (1 @ 1/1), so taking the best price player by player is worth 4.4 points of margin before a single selection is made. We explain how the number is built in what are the bookies' margins on golf, and which books are worth having an account with in which bookie is best for golf.

Our model prices every player in the field from world ranking points, recent form and the strength of the field, then compares that price against the market. Where our number is higher than the bookmakers', there is an edge - that is the Discrepancy column in the table below. Picks are the players with the biggest edge once the each-way terms on offer are taken into account, which is why a 150/1 shot at 1/5 odds and 8 places can be a better bet than the same player at 150/1 and 5 places elsewhere.
