The DP World Tour season hits tournament 41 out of 44 this week with the Andalucia Masters taking centre stage in Spain, while the FedEx Cup Fall continues on the PGA Tour with the Shriners Children’s Open.
LIV Golf member Jon Rahm is the headline act at Real Club de Golf Sotogrande and is the firm 11/4 favourite to claim the spoils, with fellow Spaniard David Puig available at 20/1.
Event four of the FedEx Cup Fall heads to TPC at Summerlin, in Las Vegas, Nevada, where South Korean Tom Kim is 12/1 to win the Shriners Children’s Open for an unprecedented third consecutive year.
Andalucia Masters golf betting tips

Dane to land sixth victory
World No 63 Rasmus Hojgaard further enhanced his reputation last month when winning the Irish Open, holding off Rory McIlroy by one stroke for his fifth DP World Tour (DPWT) title and his first success in just over a year.
The 23-year-old Dane, who has huge power, can go a little askew off the tee, but the wide fairways at the Costa del Sol venue should help negate some of his wayward driving and give him some good looks at the green on approach.
Hojgaard, ranking 14th in strokes gained tee to green, is also one of the best putters on the European circuit this season and is 17th in strokes gained for putting – an area of his game that could be crucial on these slick, fast greens.
Tip: Outright winner – Rasmus Hojgaard @ 16/1 with bet365
In-form Norgaard to contend again
Another talented Dane in the field this week, world number 94 Niklas Norgaard, showcased his class when winning the British Masters at The Belfry last month.
The 32-year-old, fourth in driving distance on the DPWT, is one of the most powerful players on the circuit and he heads to Andalucia on the back of a tied-18th finish at the Open de France.
If Norgaard, 15th in strokes gained tee to green, has a solid week with the putter, he could be in with a great chance of landing his second victory at this level.

Shriners Children’s Open golf betting tips
- Outright winner – Adam Hadwin @ 33/1 with bet365
- Outright winner – Harry Hall @ 33/1 with bet365
Canadian to get in the mix
TPC at Summerlin is one of the easier courses on the PGA Tour, with the previous six winning scores being -20 or better, and one player that looks capable of going low to claim the spoils is Adam Hadwin.
It has been more than seven years since the Canadian won on the US circuit, but that long wait could all change when he competes in a tournament that has given him some positive results.
Hadwin was second last year, just a stroke behind Kim, while he has also posted a fourth, sixth and two top-10 finishes and missed the cut just once from his eight appearances at the Nevada venue.

Cornishman to mine gold in Las Vegas
Harry Hall won on the PGA Tour for the first time in July, coming out on top in a five-man play-off at the ISCO Championship in Kentucky, and he has managed to keep the momentum going since.
The 27-year-old’s notable results since that victory have been a T12 at the British Masters and T18 at the BMW PGA Championship, evidence of how much the Cornishman’s game is improving.
Hall, known for his trademark flat caps, was eighth on his Shriners Children’s Open debut in 2021. He has gone 15th and 26th over the next two years, highlighting his affinity for this layout near the University of Nevada, which he attended in 2015-19.
