Olazabal edges Monty in Ryder betting
Jose Maria Olazabal has edged ahead of Colin Montgomerie as the favourite to be named as Europe’s 2010 Ryder Cup captain.
At least, that’s what the odds published by Betfair would indicate following the Spaniard’s decision to throw his name into the hat last week.
Olazabal has come in from 1.75 to 1.52 with Betfair with Montgomerie drifting slightly from 1.60 to 1.62.
Welshman Ian Woosnam is the next best chance at 15.5 with Miguel Angel Jimenez 18.5 and former Masters and Open champion Sandy Lyle at 21.
