Only 16 players went to post in the latest Cactus Tour event, which started in Arizona on Wednesday, with Sophia Popov the most high-profile absentee.

Haley Moore, the 9-2 Racing Post Sport recommendation, teed off as a well-backed 5-2 favourite. But Ariana Macioce, the other selection, was among the non-runners.

The three-round event is scheduled to end on Friday. The Cactus Tour has been the centre of golf-betting attention since the coronavirus destroyed the main tour schedules.
