Main Bet: Adri Arnaus To Win
The DP World Tour is hosted by the picturesque Marco Simone Golf Club this week, with a course that offers spectacular views of Vatican City and also serves as the remainder of the upcoming Ryder Cup. With the best golfers mostly busy elsewhere, this event provides a great opportunity for European players to increase their chances for a spot in Luke Donald’s Ryder Cup lineup.
The Road to Ryder Cup Glory
In recent times, performances at pre-Ryder Cup events have been pivotal for some golfers. For instance, Alex Noren’s success at Le Golf National five years ago and Graeme McDowell’s win in the 2010 Wales Open both led to successful Ryder Cup campaigns. With some spots still available, we expect the likes of the Hojgaard twins, Jordan Smith, Robert MacIntyre, Victor Perez, Adrian Meronk, and Antoine Rozner to be eager to impress Marco Simone.
Seeking Motivation, Not Distraction
Surely the prospect of the Ryder Cup will give players stronger motivations rather than offer a distraction. My main pick for this week is Adri Arnaus, who has already shown his form at Jumeirah, which is the host of the DP World Tour Championship, and has already played well at Marco Simone, so he has everything to do well this week.
Marco Simone has already hosted the Italian Open two times, in 2021 and 2022, and it was clear that in both of these events, golfers with good records at Jumeirah have fared very well. Both winners, Nicolai Hojgaard and Robert MacIntyre, secured fourth places at Jumeirah in between their Rome successes. Considering that, Arnaus’s past performances at both Jumeirah and Marco Simone make him a great betting option for this week.
