2010 Shell Houston Open Betting Odds: Redstone Golf Course – The Tournament Course in Humble, Texas, will be the sight for the 2010 Shell Houston Open Betting Odds, as this will be the final event before the first major tournament of the year: the 2010 Masters in Augusta, Georgia. Some of the best players in the world will be competing for a $5,800,00 purse in this beautiful 7,457-yard course.
This year, defending champion Paul Casey [12/1 or +1200 ML] will enter the 2010 Shell Houston Open Betting Odds as the second sports betting odds favorite to return as champ, tied with Phil Mickelson [12/1 or +1200 ML]. After being victorious at Bay Hill, the Big Easy, Ernie Els [10/1 or +1000 ML] will enter this event as the sports betting odds favorite in back-to-back-to-back weeks. Two weeks ago, Els was victorious at Doral by four-shots, followed by last week’s 2-shot win at the Arnold palmer Invitational.
“I want to make this a special year, especially after these two wins,” Els said after the victory. “But I still have a lot of work left, and there are a lot of majors left. And that’s going to be fun now.”
Els became the first player since Tiger Woods in 2001 to win twice during the Florida portion of the TOUR. With his second consecutive win, Els silenced many of his critics that have speculated the golfers better years were behind him after turning 40 last October.
“I know a lot of guys basically have written me off,” Els said. “And a lot of guys probably said it was a fluke in Miami. It was hard work this week. I’ll just keep working hard. There’s still a lot of flaws in my game that I’ve got to figure out and get right. I know I’m never going to play the game perfectly, but I can still improve.”
