2022 Golf CME Championship Betting Tips
Since the event can be rewarding for the bettors, BetZillion has picked some potent outright winners by analyzing their previous performance and current form. So here are the golf LPGA CME Group Tour Championship predictions and betting previews that may grant you significant bonuses.
Bookmaker’s Favorite – Lydia Ko to Win @ 9.0 (8/1)
The former No.1 woman golfer, Lydia Ko, is the bookmaker’s favorite, with odds at 9.0 (8/1). What makes her distinctive is that she was the youngest No.1 golfer in both men and women at 17 in 2015. This achievement speaks of her talent, as she has won 24 events since becoming a professional in 2013.
Lydia was the winner of the CME Group Tour 2014 and won two events this year, including the BMW Ladies Championship, which indicates Ko is at the top of her game. Although she is a strong pick, we also have our three other expert picks capable of lifting the trophy.
Nelly Korda to Win @ 13.0 (12/1)
Nelly Korda has LPGA CME Group Tour Championship 2022 betting odds of winning the event at 13.0 (12/1). She is our first pick because Nelly is currently the best in women’s golf. Korda is also in exceptional form in recent times. Last year, she won the gold medal in the Summer Olympics of Women’s Golf.
Nelly also won the Women’s PGA Championship last year and defended her Pelican Women’s Championship title a couple of days ago. Briefly, she can be among the most attractive bets to put your money on.
Lexi Thompson to Win @ 17.0 (16/1)
Lexi Thompson has been a brilliant golfer since her career’s initial times and has the odds to win the CME Group Tour Championship 2022 at 17.0 (16/1). She was the youngest golfer to enter U.S Women’s Open at 12 and was the youngest winner of an LPGA Tour event at 16.
After winning the Aramco Team Series last month in New York and coming second in the Women’s PGA Championship this year, Thompson is more likely to score a victory.
Kim Sei-young to Win @ 21.0 (20/1)
Sei Young Kim is another classic player with CME Group Tour Championship 2022 odds to win at 21.0 (20/1). We picked Kim due to her recent performance in the game. She was the LPGA Player of the Year in 2020 and won the Women’s PGA Championship 2020. She also won this CME event in 2019.
But she is in our prediction because in 2018, Sei Young scored a record-lowest 72-hole victory (257) in Thornberry Creek LPGA Classic by a record-to-par margin (-31). It shows her command and skills over the golf clubs.
CME Group Tour Championship 2022 Odds for Wild Cards
Since anything can happen, below are our CME Group Tour Championship 2022 golf predictions of wild cards. Although the above mentioned are strong picks, if any of these two players win, you can leave with huge bonuses or even VIP betting status in the pocket.
Georgia Hall to Win @ 36.0 (35/1)
Georgia Hall turned professional in 2014 and won only seven events. However, her odds of winning the CME Championship are 36.0 (35/1). So, what makes her a wild card for this LPGA Tour? We picked Georgia as she has shown some progressive play since 2018.
First, she won the Ricoh Women’s British Open in 2018. Then, Hall dominated in 2020 by winning the Cambia Portland Classic and coming second in Aramco Saudi Ladies International. So, if you like a risky play, Georgia is worth consideration.
Ally Ewing to Win @ 41.0 (40/1)
Our second wild pick is Ally Ewing, with her winning odds at 41.0 (40/1). She may not has a significant record during her early times, but we have picked Ally due to her consistent wins in a few years.
First, Ewing won the LPGA Drive On Championship in 2020, then the Bank of Hope LPGA Match-Play in 2021. And this year, in September, she won the Kroger Queen City Championship, which raises the possibility that she can lift this trophy as well.
Our Betting Picks for CME Tour Championship 2022
So, our final golf LPGA CME Group Tour Championship predictions are:
- Nelly Korda to Win at 13.0 (12/1)
- Sei Young Kim to Win at 21.0 (20/1)
- Georgia Hall to Win at 36.0 (35/1)
Punting on Lydia and Nelly looks like a safer betting tip to win, as they are currently the top performers. However, Lexi and Sei Young have the advantage of experience. But if you like high-risk, high-reward, we will advise going with Georgia or Ally. Follow our bet navigators.
