Sergio Garcia and Padraig Harrington to Contest Abu Dhabi Championship
Sergio Garcia and Padraig Harrington are continuing their epic duel that's been going on all season and the next chapter is set to unfold at the Abu Dhabi Championship. With a number of top competitors all competing for the massive payout courtesy of sport's best friends in the desert. At press time, Sergio Garcia is listed at 7-1 for the outright victory, Harrington is listed at 10-1. Henrik Stenson is backed at 8-1. Following those top three likely finishers, you've got a slew of competitors coming in around 20-1 and 30-1. Names like Martin Kaymer, Rory Mcilroy, Paul Casey, Robert Allenby, Ross Fisher and Rod Pampling are all listed between 20 and 30-1 with Miguel Angel Jimenez listed at 33-1. If you're doing your betting at Paddy Power, then you can take advantage of their each-way wagering where you can back somebody to finish 1,2,3,4 or 5 at ¼ of the odds. With such a massive field listed between 20 and 30-1 then you're looking at some really impressive money-making opportunities. Jimenez is looking especially appealing and I think he can always win a tournament, especially after a strong first-day showing. I'm backing Sergio and Padraig outright and then dropping an each-way on Allenby, Fisher and Jimenez.
