5 outrageous golf bets landed in 2017

3. S.S.P. Chawrasia & Adam Hadwin double – £44,000

The weekend of March 11-12 started like any other for Aberdeenshire man Stephen Kelly. But that all changed when S.S.P. Chawrasia won his home Indian Open and Adam Hadwin clinched the Valspar Championship. Stephen, you see, stuck a £10 double on the players to win their respective tournaments at 4,343/1.

Stephen’s mate, Lewis, filmed celebrations and, afterwards, he told MailOnline: “I’m going to put away around £38,000. I’ve never had savings like this so it gives me the opportunity to potentially get a property in the future when I settle down.”
