Although NZ golf open has been in existence for over a hundred years, women’s golf in New Zealand at a pro-am level is slacking behind. However, it is not for a lack of talent, there are plenty talented female golfers. The lack of sponsors is dragging NZ women’s golf back. The 2019 golf open for women was even cancelled because of lack of sponsorship. NZ women’s golf open 2017 is the last NZ women’s golf open that had great buzz around it. For this reason, betting on women’s golf is not as big as it should be. Therefore, most sportsbooks only have the men’s NZ Golf Open odds available for wagers.
