Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship betting tips: Who to back each-way

Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship betting tips

Matthias Schwab (40/1 bet365was one the most impressive European Tour performers throughout the 2019 season and looks set for big things this year.

He’s off to a good start in terms of Ryder Cup qualification and is up to 80th in the world rankings. Schwab skipped the first event of the season opting to head straight for the Middle East along with many others and will be looking to pick up where he left off last year.

The Austrian ranked 6th in Strokes Gained last season and 10th in Eagles Per Round statistics which could be a big positive around this layout.

His 2019 record included six top-5 finishes and 10 top 10s with a breakthrough victory the only thing to have eluded him. Tied 22nd on his first outing here last year there’s plenty to be optimistic about.

Paul Waring (80/1is another player who enjoyed a fine 2019 which saw him climb to his highest ever world ranking of 73rd.

The popular Englishman made his WGC debut back in November and impressed when finishing tied for 8th. After that week he played three more times in 2019, finishing inside the top 25 on all occasions and this has him set up nicely for the new season.

He endured a series of missed cuts at this event prior to last season but after returning to the winners’ circle in 2018 a rejuvenated Waring returned to finish tied for 6th last January.

Another successful season should be on the cards for Waring and he will be looking to move further up the rankings to secure spots in future WGCs and, more importantly, the majors.

So that’s the each-way bets sorted, head to the next page for my top tip…
