Who is favourite for the Paddy Power Golf Shootout? Betting odds, preview and more

Paddy Power will host their Pro-Am tournament on Friday, where 10 well-known faces will compete for the chance to become champion.

Former Liverpool footballers Peter Crouch and Jamie Redknapp will be joined by Southport-born professional golfer Tommy Fleetwood.

Piers Morgan, Andrew Flintoff, Thomas Bjorn, Andrew Johnston, Harry Kane, Carly Booth and Paul McGinley will also take part in the Paddy Power tournament.

The event will have eight separate golf-based challenges where the celebrities go head-to-head against each other.

Crouch and Redknapp are both avid golf fans and have been pictured at golf courses across the UK in the past.

However, it seems like the ex-Liverpool pair could have their work cut out at the event that takes place in Hertfordshire.

With five professional golfers, past and present, taking part – naturally, they are bound to be deemed as favourites.

Here are the  latest odds from the bookmakers Paddy Power on who will win the Pro-Am event:

Andrew ‘Beef’ Johnston: 9/4

Tommy Fleetwood: 5/2

Thomas Bjorn: 6/1

Paul McGinley: 6/1

Carly Booth: 9/1

Harry Kane: 12/1

Jamie Redknapp: 18/1

Andrew ‘Freddie’ Flintoff: 22/1

Peter Crouch: 28/1

Piers Morgan: 66/1

So, Redknapp is second-favourite out of the non-golfers taking part in the competition, with Crouch slightly bigger odds than the former Reds midfielder.

Fleetwood, who is ranked number 10 in the world, is behind just Johnston in the odds table, with the world number 189, who has developed a reputation for his trick shot repertoire, slightly shorter odds.
