The Players Championship is golf’s unofficial fifth major. There are a few reasons why this has come to pass. For starters, the prize money is huge with the purse of just under US$10 million about 20 percent bigger than the majors. It might...

Big Jim's tip for 6 May: Manly Sea Eagles
This is a very interesting clash. Who would have thought that the Dragons only sit outside of the top eight on percentages after their terrible start to the season? Still, I like Manly tonight because I am far from convinced about the Dragons no...

Big Jim's tip for 5 May: Manchester United
Manchester United has got the celebration out of their system. The title is theirs and now they can have some fun at the expense of some of their big name rivals. Chelsea still has plenty to play for this year as they fight to secure a top four...

Big Jim's tip for 4 May: Richmond
Even though the Tigers lost the game last weekend we still had a nice collect on the line. Hopefully Richmond can go one better tonight and actually win, but we will take the head start that the bookies are going to offer us. Geelong has had a dream...

Big Jim’s tip for 3 May: Collingwood
I love the Pies tonight. They should win and win easily against a St Kilda side that has only won one game this season. Both of these clubs have had eight days rest but St Kilda had to travel last week while Collingwood has stayed close to home. The...

Big Jim’s tip for 2 May: Rory McIlroy
If you like to back golfers that have shown form at an event in the past then Rory McIlroy is your man this weekend. The Northern Irishman won here in 2010 and lost in a playoff to Rickie Fowler last year. I don’t think it’s a matter of...

Big Jim’s weekend preview
The golf in the US will start to heat up again following Adam Scott’s win at the US Masters as the players head to Quail Hollow for the Wells Fargo Championship. This is a nice lead up to the lucrative Players Championship next weekend. The...

Big Jim’s tip for 1 May: NY Knicks
I know what you are all thinking — when are the Knicks going to start losing? There is plenty of time for that but it isn’t going to be tonight. Boston was the perfect first round appointment for the Knights and their loss of a few...

Big Jim’s tip for 30 April: Los Angeles Clippers
It is crunch time for the Clippers. This is a rare chance for them to usurp the Lakers as top dog in L.A. but tonight’s clash with Memphis is just about must-win with the series currently tied at 2-2. I like the Clippers. They are brash...

Girls on Clay
I have already given you my thoughts on the French Open in regards to the men but I haven’t spoken about the women yet. Some pundits consider women’s tennis boring compared to the men’s but I couldn’t disagree more...
Big Jim’s weekend wrap
It was a huge weekend of Australian Rules Football (AFL) and we went one from two with our tips. Essendon continued to defy the odds by beating Collingwood in front of 90,000 fans at the MCG but we got the chocolates with Richmond on the line...

Big Jim’s tip for 29 April: Aston Villa v Sunderland
EPL is not my favorite sport to bet on. I find it difficult to pick with accuracy and even though I seek expert advice from my sports betting entourage my win percentage is below some of my more favored sports. Having said that, I really love the...

Big Jim's tip for 28 April: Arsenal
This is tough. Betting against Manchester United at this time of year is usually a fast way to go broke but I am going to look for some value and back the Gunners tonight in the match of the round. The reasons are as follows: the Gunners are at...

Big Jim's tip for 27 April: Wests Tigers
I’m back to my old ways. I am going for Wests Tigers tonight against the improving Broncos. Both of these sides sit mid table and this may well be the game of the round. I expect the Tigers (who will be at nearly full strength) to come out...

It will be another big weekend of sport for us to sink our teeth into over the next few days so hopefully we can back plenty of winners. The NBA playoffs have been good to me so far and I suggest that you just keep backing the favorites because I...

Big Jim's tip for 26 April: Richmond
Tonight we see two clubs that shot out of the blocks this season but have hit a speed bump in recent weeks. The winner of this clash between Fremantle and Richmond can safely say their season is back on track but the loser will have to reassess. I...
