Sports fans and bettors unite. We’re coming to another weekend, but this one is without football, basketball and the NHL for the first time in nearly a year. But we have World Cup action, U.S. Open Golf, UFC Fight Night, and baseball.
1)World Cup continues in the second round of the Group Stage. On Friday, the U.S. (-165) meets Australia to highlight that day in Group D with both teams at 1-0. On Saturday, the Netherlands (-130) takes on Sweden in Group F. On Sunday, Spain (-1000) tries to bounce back from a dreadful tie with Cape Verde, when they meet Saudi Arabia in Group H. In Group G, another intriguing matchup, considering all four teams have one point apiece, is Egypt (-165) vs. New Zealand.
2)UFC Fight Night: Manel Kape vs. Kyoji Horiguchi on Saturday from the APEX at Las Vegas at 8pmET. The bout features two outstanding flyweights with Kape as the -155 favorite/Horiguchi +130
3)The U.S. Open Golf Tournament from Shinnecock, where Wyndham Clark leads at -6 after 16 holes due to darkness. He has a four-stroke lead over seven players at -2. Clark is now the favorite (+335), while the previous favorite, Scottie Scheffler (+1275) had a first-round score of 72 (+2), which ties him at 49th.
4)Baseball. It’s Father’s Day Weekend, and there are some surprisingly good series led by Washington (39-36) vs. Tampa Bay (41-30) from St. Petersburg. On Friday, Detroit (30-44) looks to get back on track against the White Sox (39-34), Tarik Skubal takes the mound on Friday, and the Tigers are -225. But the biggest series in the National League features Milwaukee (45-27) vs. Atlanta (46-27). On Friday, super hard-throwing Jacob Misiorowski takes the mound for the Brewers and they are a -168 favorite on the road tonight.
