Memorial Tournament betting and Fantasy Golf tips
Well done to BLACK CAT OF MACHRIHANISH who scooped the May monthly prize in the National Club Golfer Fantasy golf game to land a new Nike Vapor Driver.
A new month starts this week so there’s another chance to win a driver by being the top points scorer in June.
It’s also a good time to sign up for the first time if you’re not already playing.

The PGA Tour heads to Muirfield Village this week for the Memorial Tournament where there’s a bumper field once more.
Last year, Hideki Matsuyama and Kevin Na battled it out in a thrilling play-off before the former landed his maiden PGA Tour win.
Matsuyama has made 14 cuts from 15 starts this year, finishing in the top 25 on 12 occasions.
If you think the Japanese star is capable of defending his title then most bookmakers will give you odds of 22/1.
Na is having another solid season with six top 10s already. He could be a decent each-way bet at 40/1.

Chris Kirk bagged an impressive victory at Colonial two weeks ago and seems to have found the form that nearly earned him a Ryder Cup spot last year.
The American finished in a tie for fourth place here last year which is why the bookmakers are offering a slightly wary 25/1.
Bill Haas won six time since 2010 on the PGA Tour but always seems to stay under the radar. The American is having another great season with one win already to his name.
It was an eighth place finish 12 months ago for the former FedEx Cup winner and you can back him at odds of 33/1.

If you are after a bit more value then look no further than Brendon Todd who finished in the top 10 last year and has three top 10 finishes so far this season.
You can back the American at 80/1.
Favourite to land the trophy in 2015 is Masters Champion Jordan Spieth who can be backed at ungenerous odds of 7/1.
Other stellar names in the field include Dustin Johnson (12/1), Justin Rose (20/1), Rickie Fowler (22/1), Jason Day (25/1), Phil Mickelson (25/1), Matt Kuchar (25/1) and a certain Tiger Woods (28/1).
