2019 European Tour Dubai Duty Free Irish Open Odds & Picks

• The Dubai Duty Free Irish Open tees off Thursday, July 4th
• Deep field headlined by betting favorite Jon Rahm
• We’ve narrowed down the golfers with the best chance of emerging victorious

A strong field tees it up in the first of two strong events leading up to the Open Championship at this week’s Dubai Duty Free Irish Open. This tournament is being contested at Lahinch Golf Club for the first time, so there’s no course history to draw upon when considering who might play well this week.

The course is described as “the St. Andrews of Ireland” with spectacular views and a difficult challenge that awaits for the likes of Jon Rahm, Tommy Fleetwood, Louis Oosthuizen and Ian Poulter, amongst other big names.

Jon Rahm the Favorite for a Reason

After a pair of missed cuts in May, Jon Rahm has been knocking on the door for another victory by playing some inspired golf, with a tie for third at the US Open and a tie for second at last week’s Andalucia Masters.

While his +800 odds don’t present the best value, he’s head and shoulders above his competition in terms of talent and also current form. He’s fifth on the PGA Tour this season in strokes gained off the tee, which will be crucial to success in Ireland this week. Bet Rahm with confidence as he rounds into form for the Open Championship in two weeks.

Danny Willett a Strong Candidate to Win

After winning the Masters three years ago, Danny Willett lost his game completely and tumbled down the world golf rankings. In the last year, however, he’s built it back up and has been quietly playing strong golf.

He finished 12th in the US Open and T-8th the week before at the Canadian Open, so he’s showing signs that he’s ready to win for just the second time since slipping into a green jacket. You’re also getting strong value with Willett as well with +3300 odds, making him an attractive option.

2019 Dubai Duty Free Irish Open Best Value Picks

1. Russell Knox (+4000): Champion of this event a year ago, albeit on a different course. Put together three solid tournaments in a row on PGA Tour, with nothing worse than T-27th.
2. Pablo Larrazabal (+7500): Four top-10’s on the season, including T-4th and T-8th showings in May.
3. Alvaro Quiros (+10000): Has finished in second and third place in last two tournaments. Streaky player playing solidly which presents great value at these odds.
