DP Tour - Volvo China Open Preview

May 2, 2024


The Volvo China Open will be the next stop for the DP World Tour at the Hidden Grace Golf Club on Wednesday, May 1. Plenty of golfers will make a good run at the $2,250,000 prize purse. Tom McKibbin is the leading favorite for success, with a moneyline at +1400.

Volvo China Open Betting Preview

The 2024 Volvo China Open is back on the European Tour after several years of issues in scheduling with Covid. The course was used back in 2023 for the International Series.

This event is typically held at this golf course, formerly the Genzon Golf Club. The name change came in 2022, but the course remains a Par 72 with about 7,200 total yards of play.

Dragon Lake will be present on many holes throughout the tournament, so golfers must be accurate on these holes. Since 2008, the course has received some finishing touches, including clearing out foliage and tree lines to give it an open look.

Golfers That Could Win

Several chances abound for gamblers in search of a golfer offering exceptional worth. Here are some alternatives that have the potential to create significant outcomes.

Bernd Wiesberger +2200

Wiesberger had a victory at this golf course back in 2017. He has solid momentum entering this event with a T24 in Japan but will need to work magic here.

In his performance last week, he came out on top with greens in regulation average and came in 12th for strokes gained approach. With several wins across Asia tournaments throughout his career, this is shaping up to be another good opportunity.

Alexander Levy +4000

Levy is a bit of a long shot here, but he has some experience in the past that could allow him to make noise. He has won this event twice in his career, with his most recent performance in 2014.

He did not perform well last season and ended up losing his DP World Tour card, but he has shown improvement on the lower levels and is appealing here for redemption. He has some respectable top-10 finishes a few events back and arguably has good momentum.

Odds, Series Trends, and Free Pick

MyBookie has the odds available for the 2024 Volvo China Open. Tom McKibbin is leading the field with the odds most likely to win, given the field.

McKibbin is having a great year, especially finishing T7 in Japan and landing seven top-25 finishes out of eight starts to the year. While driving is not the biggest advantage here, he ranks fourth overall for his strokes gained off the tee in the DP World Tour, which should offer him some breathing room.

Final Pick: Tom McKibbin +1400
