The Match 8 Odds

  • Steph Curry / Klay Thompson -350
  • Patrick Mahomes / Travis Kelce +250

Betting on The Splash Brothers at the Match

Steph Curry and Klay Thompson have -350 odds at online golf sportsbooks in the USA to take down Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce on Thursday night at the Wynn Golf Club, with Curry and Thompson likely not heavy enough favorites.

Specifically, Curry’s acumen on the golf course is likely to lead the Warriors pairing to win in this scramble matchup.

To properly contextualize the Splash Brothers’ advantage because of Steph’s game, the scorecards of Curry, Mahomes, and Kelce from their performance over three rounds at the American Century Championship show that the NBA’s greatest three-point shooter of all time is also at another level compared to all other competitors on Thursday Night.

  • Steph Curry: 77, 81, 75
  • Patrick Mahomes: 87, 85, 86
  • Travis Kelce: 87, 92, 89

Considering Curry’s worst round at the tournament was still four strokes better than the best round that Mahomes or Kelce had, the Warriors will not need a lot from Thompson in a scramble format to take home a win.

Klay may even prove to be an asset in this format, as he reports a 15 handicap on the golf course that is not much different from that of Mahomes or Kelce.
