Golf Best Bets – Women’s Australian Open Betting Tips 2024

Australian stars Minjee Lee and Hannah Green headline a red-hot Australian Open field that include plenty of LPGA stars and some rising Australian talent.

Best Bet

Ashleigh Buhai
Women's Australian Open 2024

It is impossible to go past Buhai, who is remarkably on the fifth line of betting. She has won the last two Australian Opens and happy to put a line through all the Aussie shorties with no Australian having won since 2014 and no Australian not named Karie Webb having won the crown since Jane Crafter in 1997. Buhai is in the positives in Strokes Gained: Around The Green while she ranked 15th in Putting Average last year. Great bet.


Mid-Tier Bet

Jenny Shin
Women's Australian Open 2024

Shin has a solid year on the LPGA Tour with three Top 10s. Her form over the backend of the season was particularly strong with seven Top 20 finishes in her last 14 starts including in her last three major appearances. Leads the LPGA Tour in Round 1 scoring so will put herself in a good position and ranks Top 20 in Putting Average.


Value Bet

Dannielle Kang
Women's Australian Open 2024

A six-time winner on the LPGA Tour including the 2017 Women’s PGA Championship, Kang has not enjoyed the best season but he class can show up here, She ranked third in Putting Average and 14th in Sand Saves despite a tough year so her skillset should see her shine this week.


Longshot Bet

Sarah Jane Smith
Women's Australian Open 2024

Aussie veteran Sarah Jane Smith is not without a show at big odds. She won the TPS Murray River a year back. Finished 16th in last year’s Australian Open. Strong Top 20 bet.
