Andalucía Valderrama Masters Golf Betting OddsEuropean Tour Golf Betting Odds: Andalucía will host the final European Tour event of the year to be held on European soil with the staging of the Andalucía Valderrama Masters from October 18 to 21.

2010’s inaugural event was won by US Open Champion Graeme McDowell. The Northern Irishman had started the month by securing the winning point for Europe in The Ryder Cup and he held off the challenge of Gareth Maybin and Damien McGrane to claim a battling victory at Club de Golf Valderrama in Sotogrande.

Both Maybin and McGrane had been in contention for victory up until the closing holes, only to see their hopes dashed over Valderrama’s notoriously tough home stretch. With Maybin finishing bogey-bogey, McDowell could afford to play the final hole with caution, coming up short of the green in two before taking three more shots to seal a wonderful win.

A delighted McDowell said: "It’s very special to win here and I draw a lot of comparisons with Pebble Beach (where he won the US Open Championship in June). "It was a war of attrition and the last man standing really. Damien and Gareth are both grinders in their own right and I was just happy that I could eventually get the job done."

2011 Andalucia Valderrama Masters Winner - Garcia clinches Andalucia Masters for another win

Sergio Garcia held off fellow Spaniard Miguel Angel Jimenez to win the Andalucia Masters by one shot on Sunday for his second straight European Tour victory.

Garcia shook off two early bogeys with two birdies on a flawless back nine to card an even 71 and finish with a 6-under total of 278 at the Valderrama course.

Jimenez seized the lead early when Garcia three-putted the sixth hole and bogeyed the next. The 47-year-old Jimenez dropped shots on the 13th and 15th before making a pair of birdies to press Garcia until the last hole.

Jimenez had a chance at pulling even with a birdie on the 18th, but his 15-foot putt fell short and Garcia calmly made par.

Richie Ramsay of Scotland, who led for the first two rounds, finished two shots back in third, with Irish golfer Shane Lowry a further shot behind in fourth.

The 31-year old Garcia won the Castello Masters by 11 strokes last weekend to end a nearly three-year title drought.
