Key Points
- This golf betting tip comes from the Dubai Desert Classic and the outright market.
- Distance off the tee is a key attribute to doing well here in Dubai. Down the years we have seen the likes of Els, Stenson, Woods and Quiros all come good in this event.
- Well Hoey is another play who can send it out there and during his win in the Alfred Dunhill Links last season he was knocking it past Mcilroy on a consistent basis.
- I think that win at St.Andrews will do a lot for Hoey's career. So often he has been regarded as an underachiever. But beating such a illustrious field in such a tight finish will have done wonders for his self belief.
- I was so impressed with Hoey during that final round that I knew then he would be a player I would back on several occasions this season.
- It's just about getting the timing right and backing him on the right golf course. I think this week could be that occasion.
- Hoey hasn't had many chances to play in this event and that will disappoint him having finished just outside the top 10 on his debut in 2002.
- It wasn't until 2010 that he returned and on that occasion he missed the cut. Last season however Hoey played well around this course to finish inside the top 15.
- He also brings some good form with him, finishing 12th last week in Qatar.
- Hoey is a player I follow on twitter and he has been working hard in the gym and the vibes have been good. During Abu Dhabi he said "very happy with the improvement in putting".
- Hoey finished just inside the top 50 in Abu Dhabi which is no big surprise as the rough was penal and accuracy off the tee is Hoey's one real weakness.
- It was in fact the first time he had made the cut in Abu Dhabi so that is actually a positive.
- This is somewhat of a speculative punt but I feel given his length Hoey can contend on this course and odds of 110/1 look good value to me.
- Hoey has won as many tournaments on the European Tour as Rory Mcilroy, yet the US Open champion is 5.5 to win in Dubai.
