Golf: Ace’s Alfred Dunhill Tips

Posted on: 30 Nov 2016

THE Alfred Dunhill Championship will be hosted by the Leopard Creek Country Club in South Africa where it has been situated since 2004. The Gary Player designed course is on the southern edge of the Kruger National Park and there is plenty of wildlife on view, ranging from crocodiles to elephants and buffalos. But no Tigers – Woods is playing elsewhere […]

Nov 30: Hearts v Rangers Preview

Posted on: 30 Nov 2016

WHILE Celtic play trophy monopoly Rangers have been using their get out of jail free card. Injury-time winners against Dundee and Partick Thistle have lifted the Ibrox men into second but they could be locked out of the points at Tynecastle tonight. Only three points separate Gers, Aberdeen and Hearts and the race for second should go to the wire. […]

Golf: Ace’s Australian PGA Tips

Posted on: 30 Nov 2016

THE 2017 Race to Dubai starts on two continents this weekend with the Australian PGA Championship and the Alfred Dunhill in South Africa. The PGA takes place at the RACV Royal Pines Resort on the Gold Coast in Queensland. With tight fairways and undulating greens the Graham Marsh re-designed Championship Course could cause a few problems. It has been won […]

Nov 29: EFL Cup Betting Preview

Posted on: 28 Nov 2016

LIVERPOOL v Leeds used to be one of England’s biggest games – but that’s just a distant memory. Leeds have been out of the top flight too long (12 years) so trips to the likes of Anfield are rare treats. Garry Monk’s men are on a run of good form and promotion is the No.1 priority so players are likely […]

Nov 27: Betfred Cup Final Preview

Posted on: 26 Nov 2016

BRENDAN RODGERS will be glad to see the back of Messi – now he can concentrate on cleaning up! The Celtic boss wants nothing less than a treble – that’s 11-5 at McBookie – and with the title almost won already he can lift trophy No.1 at Hampden. Aberdeen stand in his way in the Betfred Cup Final and the […]

Nov 26: English Betting Preview

Posted on: 26 Nov 2016

CHELSEA and Liverpool have taken advantage of no European football – and both should win today after another free midweek. Leaders Chelsea face the tougher of tests at home to unbeaten Spurs who have looked jaded in recent weeks. A scrambled victory against West Ham last week was their first in seven and they were poor as they crashed out […]

Nov 24: Europa League Betting Preview

Posted on: 24 Nov 2016

IT’S Europa League night and once again we have to consider team news and take into account the fact some sides have already qualified. Let’s start in Group A where Feyenoord, Fenerbahce and Man United are fighting for the top two places. Fenerbahce are 4-9 at bet365 to beat basement boys Zorya and should do so. United and Feyenoord face […]

Golf: Ace’s World Cup of Golf Tips

Posted on: 23 Nov 2016

THERE’S nothing happening in the world of golf this week with the exception of the World Cup of Golf in Melbourne. I’m not fond of betting on team tournaments but because of the lack of anything else I’ll have a go. Australia ran away with the title three years ago, winning by 10 strokes at nearby Royal Melbourne. There is […]

Nov 23: Champions League Preview

Posted on: 22 Nov 2016

IT was quite a night in the Champions League with loads of goals and the highest-scoring match in history. Hopefully there will be a repeat on Wednesday but sometimes the opposite is the case. Dortmund 8, Legia Warsaw 4 beat Monaco’s 7-3 win against Deportivo and well done to anyone who was on over 11.5 match goals. So let’s start […]

Nov 22: Champions League Preview

Posted on: 22 Nov 2016

AT the start of the season people laughed when bookies rated Leicester 10 times more likely to win the Champions League than defend their title. Bookies were spot on with the prices – and now the Foxes are 25 more times likely to rule in Europe than retain their Premier League crown. They are 40-1 to win the Champions League […]

Nov 19: English Betting Preview

Posted on: 19 Nov 2016

DONALD TRUMP’S not the most popular American in Wales – but Swansea fans will probably back him ahead of bungling Bob Bradley. The former USA gaffer’s appointment didn’t go down well and there’s been no new-boss bounce to appease the support. The Swans have taken one point in four games since Bradley arrived and are unlikely to leave Everton with anything even […]

Nov 18: Killie v Celtic Betting Preview

Posted on: 17 Nov 2016

CELTIC have been without 14 players this week – and Brendan Rodgers could leave them all out and still beat Killie tonight. That’s the harsh reality with the champions in a league of their own this season. Rodgers has been moaning about playing a day early after the internationals but the only players affected should be long travellers Tom Rogic, […]

Golf: Ace’s DP World Tour Tips

Posted on: 16 Nov 2016

ALEX NOREN gave me my third winner in three weeks last weekend as he won the Nedbank Challenge. The Swede was 20-1 antepost but much bigger than that when he trailed by six shots going into the final round. He fired a super 65 to win by six and could again be the man to beat this weekend. The top […]

Golf: Ace’s RSM Classic Tips

Posted on: 16 Nov 2016

SEA ISLAND in Georgia was hit badly in September by Tropical Storm Hermine and later at the end of the month by Hurricane Matthew – so for the resort to be able to hold the RSM Classic this week is remarkable. Both the Seaside and the Plantation Courses will be used and are ranked easiest in both fairways hit and […]

Nov 12: World Cup Betting Preview

Posted on: 11 Nov 2016

GARETH BALE’S reacted to his bumper pay rise with three goals in two games – and that’s good news for Wales. The Real Madrid star briefly became the world’s highest-paid player before Cristiano Ronaldo was handed a £500k-plus weekly deal. But when you play for Wales cash isn’t the concern – and Chris Coleman will need his talisman to be […]

Nov 11: England v Scotland Preview

Posted on: 11 Nov 2016

IT’S been the year of the underdog. First Leicester then Brexit and finally Donald Trump. Bookies reported a £5 wager on that treble would have returned up to £12million … but could Scotland beating England at Wembley tonight Trump them all? A best price of 10-1 with McBookie is bigger than Brexit was in the closing weeks and higher than Trump was […]

Golf: Nedbank Golf ChallengeTips

Posted on: 08 Nov 2016

BUILT in an extinct volcano the Gary Player Country Club in Sun City is a gem of a course to host the second part of the Final Series in the Race to Dubai. The Nedbank Golf Challenge in South Africa became part of the European Tour schedule in 2014 and has quite a good field, including Open champion Henrik Stenson. […]

Golf: Ace’s OHL Classic Tips

Posted on: 08 Nov 2016

AFTER landing a 100-1 winner on the US Tour two weeks ago I though I was following up with an 80-1 triumph. My man Lucas Glover, who I tipped at 80-1, led the Shriners Hospital for Children’s Open after three rounds, but eventually finished third. Glover played well and was in contention until a poor tee shot at the par-three […]

Nov 5: English Betting Preview

Posted on: 05 Nov 2016

DAVIE MOYES is being tipped for the sack if Sunderland don’t win at Bournemouth today – and there’s little chance of that happening. Sunderland have equalled the worst start to a Premier League campaign having taken two points from 10 games and there is nothing to suggest they can win spark to life at the Vitality Stadium. Bournemouth hammered Hull […]

Nov 5: Scottish Football Preview

Posted on: 05 Nov 2016

THE title race is over after Celtic’s defeat of Aberdeen last week – so what bets are on offer to make the Premiership interesting for the rest of the season? There is of course “the best of the rest market” which now sees Rangers as evens favourites ahead of Aberdeen. Celtic are now no bigger than 1-40 to retain their […]

Nov 4: Friday Football Preview

Posted on: 03 Nov 2016

WITH just 10 points separating second place and bottom spot the Scottish Premiership has become a tough place to pick results. Take away Celtic and almost any team can beat another – even Dundee got in on the act last weekend at Hamilton to end a run of six defeats. Second-placed Rangers have 19 points while the Dens men have […]

Golf: Ace’s Shriner Children’s Hospital Open Tips

Posted on: 02 Nov 2016

THANKS for all the comments after last weekend’s winners at the WGC-HBC Champions and Sanderson Farms Open. Hideki Matsuyama won at 22-1 in China and Cody Gribble collected his first PGA Tour success at a starting price of 100-1. I didn’t advise the double but I know people back it every week. It paid 2322-1 and it was good to […]

Golf: Ace’s Turkish Open Tips

Posted on: 02 Nov 2016

THE first event of the Final Series in the Race to Dubai starts at the Regnum Carya Golf & Spa resort in Antalya, Turkey this weekend. With only three of the top 10 in the Race to Dubai taking part after security concerns you would think it’s not going to be that good a tourney but I’m confident we’ll see plenty […]

Nov 2: Champions League Preview

Posted on: 01 Nov 2016

THERE were goals galore and only major upset in the Champions League last night although many of the fancied favourites were given a run for their money. Celtic’s draw at Borussia M’gladbach went against the grain and it’s a shock anytime Barcelona lose. Atletico Madrid needed a last-gasp goal to see off Rostov, Bayern Munich and PSG both scrambled 2-1 […]

Nov 1: Champions League Preview

Posted on: 01 Nov 2016

WE’VE reached the halfway stage of the Champions League groups and on matchday four sides play the reverse fixture from the previous game. That’s bad news for Celtic who head to Monchengladback after losing 2-0 to the Germans at home and Man City who entertain Barcelona after being floored 4-0 in the Nou Camp. Celtic have never won a European […]
