14/1 for a hole in one in the ryder cup, that should be a bigger odd surely. If bookies put a price on rolling five dice at once and each one landing on a one you would probably get 14/1.
Rubbish odds against the probability.14/1 for a hole in one in the ryder cup, that should be a bigger odd surely. If bookies put a price on rolling five dice at once and each one landing on a one you would probably get 14/1.
This^^It will be 14/1 because the bookies will make a profit paying out at 14/1.
It's not about how likely something is, it's about the bets people are putting on.
What did they do other than target small bookies? Were they just offered daft odds?
Think they were offered odds of 33/1 for a hole in one which was massively overpriced. The correct price should have been 5/4?What did they do other than target small bookies? Were they just offered daft odds?

140 players enter a tournament, 4 par 3's, that's 560 chances to get a hole in one. 33/1 looks a great price now.
14/1 Seems a fair price for the Ryder Cup
Up to 192 shots, 2nd sentence is correct.Yep. There are 72 rounds in the Ryder Cup, meaning 288 shots at par 3's maximum and that number may well be lower as one of the par 3's is the 16th. Slightly countered by this being matchplay golf meaning players will play more aggressively as a bad shot means losing the hole, not the round/tournament.
Up to 192 shots, 2nd sentence is correct.
CorrectThree days, isn't it and 96 potential shots a day?
Yep, only about 4/1 for the whole competition.Correct
Looks like the OP is wrong with the 14/1?
