We’re not all that far away from March Madness, where 68 of the best teams in college basketball will square off for the right to be called the champion of the collegiate hardwood. The WGC Accenture Match Play Tournament doesn’t exactly have the same sort of prestige, but starting on Wednesday, 64 of the best golfers on the PGA Tour will get together for one of the rare match play tournaments of the season. Here at Bankroll Sports, we’ve got all of your Accenture Match Play picks for this spectacle starting on Wednesday!

Where else could we start than with the great Tiger Woods (Golf Odds: 12 to 1@ BetUS Sportsbook)? Woods really has never gotten back into form for the past few years, but in this type of a tournament, he only has to worry about one man aside from himself, and he can afford a few duds for holes here and there as long as he wins more than he loses. Woods has won this tournament three times in his career, in 2003, 2004, and 2008, and in that last duel in 2008 against Stewart Cink, he came up with a resounding triumph at 8 & 7. Tiger was also a finalist here in 2000, when he lost to Darren Clarke.

Of course, when you mention Tiger, you have to mention Phil Mickelson (Accenture Match Play Odds: 18 to 1@ BetUS Sportsbook) right behind him. Lefty has neither won nor played in a finale of this match play event, but just like Tiger, this is a great chance for him to figure out how to get his groove on again just before getting involved in the majors like the Masters down the road. Mickelson is going to have a rough road ahead of him in a very difficult draw, which is why his PGA odds are off just a bit from the pace that you would expect, but he will inevitably be a factor deep into this tournament.

The man that has been the runner up here in the last two seasons as been Paul Casey (Odds to Win Accenture Match Play: 12 to 1@ BetUS Sportsbook). Casey is one of the best golfers in the entire world, and he is moving up the charts accordingly. However, he just never seems to find a way to get over the hump here in match play competition. Casey was destroyed by an Aussie in Geoff Ogilvy and a Brit in Ian Poulter over the course of these last two seasons, and perhaps this is the year that he can figure it out.

Speaking of Geoff Ogilvy (Current Match Play Odds: 25 to 1@ BetUS Sportsbook), he has some fantastic odds and might make for some great PGA picks in this one this coming week. He isn’t considered one of the 10 favorites in this field of 64, yet he is the only person aside from Woods that has won the event more than once. Don’t be surprised if he is hanging around into the weekend, which certainly would make the 25 to 1 investment worthwhile.
