Golf: VC Bet hoping lefty doesn't get it right
VC Bet's golf department will be closely monitoring the progress of Masters champ Phil Mickelson at this week's Grand Slam of Golf in Hawaii.That's because the firm have accommodated a heavy hitting punter to the tune of £40k at 100/30 for a Mickelson win in the Pacific.Mickelson is now trading at 3/1 what is expected to be a windy Poipu Beach.US PGA winner Vijay Singh is VC Bet's 11/10 favourite with the 2004 season's two other Major winners Retief Goosen 11/5 and Todd Hamilton 9/1."Given Mickelson's well publicised change of clubs and recent form you'd have to consider him a lay for this event," said golf compiler Richard Friend.
