A Mexico Open 2023 Betting Favorite Cross Sport Parlay
What’s up Addicts,
I’m Vince “Money” Marg, and I’m thrilled to be launching some fresh content and, hopefully, some lucrative takes each week for the Tour Junkies. All of you golf betting thirst traps better be ready to think outside of the box each week to start the tourney. WE’RE ALL GOING JUICIN!
We’re in a new frontier this golf season. Shorter odd favorites have been dominating the betting markets. To put the odds back in our favor, we’re going to be analyzing a few names on the top of the betting board each week. We will be "juicing" those picks with some options outside the golf world for bigger and better yields. I hope you're thirsty!
Our Outright Favorite for The Mexico Open 2023
Es Hora de Tony!
As you know from Nasty Nate’s Rundown, we’re heading south of the border this week to Vidanta Vallarta for the 2023 PGA TOUR Mexico Open. The field is limited this week to say the least. New Master’s champ John Rahm has come to defend, but all signs point to Tony Finau. While he hasn’t been in the best form of late, Tony is right at the top of the field in all the major strokes gained categories.
Finau was impressive last year in his first trip to Vidanta, finishing with a T-2 and carding a 63 on Sunday. On similar Paspalum courses over his last 24 rounds, Tony ranks in the top 5 in Strokes Gained: Tee to Green, Approach, and Around the Green. At 4x longer odds than John Rahm, fire up Tony in a weak-field birdie fest
Best odds for Tony Finau: +850 Fanduel as of Wednesday, 11amET.
Cross Sport Picks to Parlay
The Big Apple Juice
This Week’s Juice is tasting a lot like 1994 at Madison Square Garden. The Rangers and Knicks have been lighting up Broadway. The Garden has meaningful games being played, and both teams look poised to move onto the next round of their respective series.
The Rangers have playoff experience and the skill set to contend for the Stanley Cup this season. The offense has slowed down in the past two games but the team will benefit from an extra day off leading into game 5 across the Hudson River. The Blueshirts take care of business in Jersey and come back home to close it out.
The Pick: NY Rangers -110 to win series
Double The Juice
The New York Knickerbockers are a much-improved team with excellent guard play. The transition defense is there when it counts. What will make the difference in this series is offensive rebounds and New York is top 5 in that area. They are also superior in second-chance points. They only need one more win to close this series out and Jalen Brunson and crew shut down Donovan Mitchell and get it done.
The Pick: NY Knicks -520 to win series
The Juice of the Week: +2062 on FanDuel
If you’re looking to juice one of the favorites this week, look no further than here. It’s officially "Tony Time" season! Despite Tony hailing from Utah, it’s the fresh-tasting New York water that’s going to make the best pizza and get those short odds up to something respectable.
So we're taking Finau outright + Knicks to win the series + Rangers to win the series. Fire this Juice up like a NY Strip. (1 Unit to Win 20.6).
