The place portion pays out at a fraction of the win odds, usually a quarter or a fifth. Each-way bets are particularly popular in golf because the large field sizes mean even strong players are priced at long odds, making the place portion valuable when targeting players who consistently finish high."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Can I bet on golf live at talkSPORT BET?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes. talkSPORT BET offers in-play betting markets across every major championship and signature PGA Tour, DP World Tour and LIV Golf event.
