I get this type of question quite often and the answer is that i use many books and not only one.  By using many books, you get the best prices on matches and the best odds on wagers made -- this is true with most any of the non major sports and golf surely falls into that group.

as for SIA, take a look at the "More Betting" option -- they do offer Top 10 finishers.  Again though, the odds may be different on that page as people get on other pages and no way to know if they will be higher or lower odds unless you have a few accounts.  But SIA has quite a lot of wagers this week, so take a look though all of them and GL!

SIA's top ten odds are brutal

You want a handicapping tip?  Spend as much time getting a good number as you do researching games. Depositing/withdrawing/depositing/withdrawing is a bitch, but I guarantee you will lose less, or win more.  I can't guarantee that for any other piece of advice

3*  Woods + Mickelson  -130  over mcilroy + mcdowell

To clear up this wager, if anyone has questions, the total score for the tourney of Tiger added to Phil must be lower than Rory and McDowell.   If any player MC their score is doubled (their 36 hole total is doubled).
