talkSPORT betting tips – Best golf bets and expert advice for LIV Golf Singapore
The LIV Golf tour stays in Asia for the second week running with the action taking place on the Serapong Course at Sentosa Golf Club in Singapore. American Brooks Koepka claimed the spoils here last year, finishing two strokes ahead of Cameron Smith and Marc Leishman, and he heads into his title defence on the back of a tied-35th finish in Hong Kong last week. Spaniard Sergio Garcia tasted success in Sheung Shui and he will be fancied to challenge for glory once again, especially as he returns to a course he won the 2018 Singapore Open at. Serapong Course is a par-71 measuring 7,406 yards that has plenty of bunkers and water to negotiate, making a strong tee-to-green game crucial. talkSPORT BET welcome offer – Get £20 in free bets* LIV Golf Singapore betting tips Tom McKibbin to win and each-way @ SP Harold Varner III to win and each-way @ SP Ian Poulter first-round leader @ SP McKibbin to make LIV breakthrough Northern Irishman Tom McKibbin made the decision to join the LIV tour this season, a surprising call perhaps given he had just earned a PGA Tour card, but he has settled into life on the Saudi-backed circuit effortlessly. The 22-year-old, part of a Legion XIII team that includes Jon Rahm, Tyrrell Hatton and Caleb Surratt, was tied-15th on his debut in Riyadh and has registered T7 (Adelaide) and T6 (Hong Kong) finishes since.

Add in his strong short game, which has him 18th in scrambling and T16 in putting average, and McKibbin looks to have the tools required to make a big challenge this week.

Although the American is yet to add to his tally since, he has been striking the ball nicely this season and he is tied-first in greens in regulation and sixth in driving accuracy. That strong tee-to-green game could put the 34-year-old in the mix and his results this term have been positive, recording T21, T7 and T18 finishes. Poulter can start hot It’s safe to say it hasn’t turned out to be a success in regards to victories for Ian Poulter since joining LIV, with the Englishman still chasing his maiden title and his best finish a fifth-placed effort in Chicago last year. Whether the 49-year-old has the drive to win remains to be seen, even in these 54-hole tournaments, but he still has the ability to sparkle from time to time and he could be worth a look in the first-round leader market. Poulter has fond memories of Sentosa Golf Club, having won the 2009 Singapore Open here, and he led the way after the opening 18 holes that day. If he starts to get the irons going better this week, then he could put together a good score early doors before eventually fading away over the last two rounds. talkSPORT BET welcome offer – Get £20 in free bets* *18+ New customers only.

McKibbin to make LIV breakthrough
Northern Irishman Tom McKibbin made the decision to join the LIV tour this season, a surprising call perhaps given he had just earned a PGA Tour card, but he has settled into life on the Saudi-backed circuit effortlessly.
The 22-year-old, part of a Legion XIII team that includes Jon Rahm, Tyrrell Hatton and Caleb Surratt, was tied-15th on his debut in Riyadh and has registered T7 (Adelaide) and T6 (Hong Kong) finishes since.
It’s pleasing to see McKibbin has improved on his position with each start and he should relish this Serapong test, with his tied-fifth ranking in greens in regulation evidence of his solid approach play.
Add in his strong short game, which has him 18th in scrambling and T16 in putting average, and McKibbin looks to have the tools required to make a big challenge this week.
Varner worth a look
Harold Varner III made no illusions as to why he joined the LIV circuit, with the financial windfall setting up his family and future generations for life, but he has put in some solid results and he won the Washington event in May 2023.
Although the American is yet to add to his tally since, he has been striking the ball nicely this season and he is tied-first in greens in regulation and sixth in driving accuracy.
That strong tee-to-green game could put the 34-year-old in the mix and his results this term have been positive, recording T21, T7 and T18 finishes.
Poulter can start hot
It’s safe to say it hasn’t turned out to be a success in regards to victories for Ian Poulter since joining LIV, with the Englishman still chasing his maiden title and his best finish a fifth-placed effort in Chicago last year.
Whether the 49-year-old has the drive to win remains to be seen, even in these 54-hole tournaments, but he still has the ability to sparkle from time to time and he could be worth a look in the first-round leader market.
Poulter has fond memories of Sentosa Golf Club, having won the 2009 Singapore Open here, and he led the way after the opening 18 holes that day.
If he starts to get the irons going better this week, then he could put together a good score early doors before eventually fading away over the last two rounds.
