    Golf matchups are on the board at Diamond sportsbook for the Tour Championship that begins on Thursday in Atlanta. Let’s take a look at some of the matchups including Rory McIlory vs. Tiger Woods and make our predictions.

    Rory McIlroy -125 vs. Tiger Woods

    The advantage in this matchup has to go to Rory as he has won three of his last four tournaments and has proven he can go up against Tiger and beat him.

    Adam Scott -120 vs. Luke Donald

    We have seen in the past year or so that when it is a big event, Donald crumbles. Scott seems to handle pressure better so I will lay the small price in this matchup.

    Jason Dufner -110 vs. Luke Donald

    I like Dufner just as much as Scott and again, I am going against Donald who has not shown the ability to win in the clutch.

    Jason Dufner -120 vs. Jim Furyk

    I am all-in on Dufner this week in golf betting as I am taking him in this matchup as well against Furyk.

    Louis Oosthuizen -140 vs. Sergio Garcia

    If anyone other than McIlroy or Woods is to win the FedExCup then it is likely going to be Oosthuizen. Unlike Luke Donald, Oosthuizen seems to rise to the occasion in big events.

    Louis Oosthuizen -125 vs. Jim Furyk

    I will take Oosthuizen again in this matchup at the reasonable price at Diamond Sportsbook.

    Keegan Bradley -125 vs. Webb Simpson

    In the past month or so, Simpson has not played well. He definitely was fortunate to win the U.S. Open and since that time he has simply not been on his game.

    Matt Kuchar -130 vs. Hunter Mahan

    Is there any reason to like Mahan in this matchup? He has simply packed it in since being left off the Ryder Cup team.

    John Huh -135 vs. Scott Piercy

    I will go with the rookie to beat Piercy in this matchup. Piercy is just happy to be here at all after becoming the last qualifier in the field.
