Golf preview

With top-tier golf still months from resuming, bookmakers have turned their attention to Florida where they are offering prices for two low-level events in the Sunshine State.

The two-day Minor League Tour tournament at Palm City's Fox Club has moved from Melreese Country Club at the 11th hour and the market is headed by Max Greyserman, who was last seen finishing 29th in a Korn Ferry Tour event in Mexico at the beginning of the month.

Greyserman has an obvious chance on that form but may have to play second fiddle to Chase Koepka - by far the most recognisable name in the field due to the exploits of his four-time Major winning brother Brooks, himself a former Minor League golfer.

Twice a runner-up on Europe's Challenge Tour and a frequent winner on this Jupiter-based circuit, Koepka fired a first-round 60 to win the first Minor League Major of the year at Country Club of Coral Springs last month and should contend again if arriving in similar form.

The West Florida Golf Tour heads to Sarasota for the single-round Ritz-Carlton Series 4 tournament where Jimmy Stanger looks the rightful favourite.

Tampa Bay-born Stanger has five career top-ten finishes on the Korn Ferry Tour to his name - fine form in this context - and his figures in four starts in individual events on the West Florida Tour read 1-4-1-2.
