As you can see from the odds listed below, not too many of the big names have made the trek this weekend from The Players Championship, but this is the best time to make some money betting on golf.

Harrington might be tired this weekend, as he had to travel back from the Players Championship and shot a +2 for the tournament and tied for 49th place. Not too many people repeat at this course, so look for a nice longshot payout and maybe take a courtesy look at Thomas Bjorn at +3000 to win it.
Ron Raymond's Golf Picks
Sports Handicapper and Professional Gambler Ron Raymond has released his Valero Texas Open golf picks and he’s going with a 22.5 to 1 longshot to win this event. Ron’s golf picks are ranked from Gold (Top Play), Silver (Second Best Bet) to BronzeGold Pick: Charlie Wi +2250
Keys to selection: Charlie Wi came in second a few weeks ago at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans shooting 66, 70, 71, and 68 – 275. Charlie didn’t make the cut last week in a field full of stud golfers; but he could be the talk of the town on Sunday by the way he’s been playing of late.
Silver Pick: Justin Leonard +1050
Keys to selection: Anytime you have a watered down field like this one at the Valero Texas Open, it’s hard not to take a veteran like Leonard who’s got a major title in his bag.
Bronze Pick: Tim Clark +2050
Keys to selection: Tim Clark is my longshot this week; great showing at The Players last week, tied for 9th and shot 69 on Sunday.
