Hall of Fame instructor Butch Harmon says this is the secret to golf Butch Harmon is one of the most revered golf coaches on the planet — ever, really. The World Golf Teacher’s Hall of Fame member is an inspiration for golf instructors everywhere, and has helped thousands of golfers over the course of his storied career. When he talks, we listen. This week, the legendary golf coach appeared on GOLF contributor Mark Immelman’s podcast, and dropped a series of fascinating, hilarious and utterly brilliant pearls of wisdom he’s learned through the years. There’s so many of them, and the only way to do it justice is to listen to the podcast in its entirety. Trust us, it’s well worth you time: My favorite pearl came when Butch, in passing, revealed what he says is the “secret to golf.” He literally used those words, so, naturally, my ears perked up.

What’s the secret, according to Butch Harmon? It’s “repetition”:

“Anybody who loves golf should go to St. Augustine to the World Golf Hall of Fame, because there’s hundreds of strange-looking swings in there, and they all work. Because the secret to golf is repetition. He continued by pointing to Jim Furyk as an example; someone whose swing isn’t something you’d teach to anybody, but it’s one that he has the ability to repeat on command: “Look at Jim Furyk, he’s just about to turn 50, he still competes on the PGA Tour with a swing that … if his father had changed that swing to make it look perfect, we’d have never heard of Jim Furyk. [The legends of golf] had a lot of strange characteristics in their swing. The common thread was getting the club square at impact and being able to repeat it time and time again.” Now, I know what you’re thinking. That “repeatability” isn’t much of a secret, because people want to know how to be repeatable. That’s the tricky part, but Butch goes on to say that your best chance is not to try and imitate another golfer’s swing, but to perfect the tools at your disposal. Work with a good coach who keeps things simple, and remember that the common thread is getting the clubface back to square at impact.

“I don’t care how you do it,” Butch says, “just do it.”

Win draw win betting

A Win Draw Win bet is a wager placed on a match that has three possible outcomes. Typically, the bet type is available for betting on soccer matches, where the draw is a likely outcome due to the low scoring nature of the sport. Win Draw Win bets are also known as three-way bets and 1 x 2 bets, and they generally only apply to the full-time result of a soccer match, ie. The score as at the end of 90 minutes of play.

Similar to head to head betting

The Win Draw Win bet type is similar to head to head betting, in that it is the bet type that most accurately reflects the winning chances of each outcome before any handicapping is applied.

Win Draw Win betting example

As with all sports bet types, the Win Draw Bet is best explained using an example. Let’s consider the market for the 2018 FA Cup between Chelsea and Manchester United:

Win Draw Win market:

Chelsea $2.88, the Draw $3.00 and Man United $2.60.

There are 3 possible outcomes for the FA Cup final, as at the end of normal time (90 minutes):

Three possible outcomes: Chelsea win

The match is a draw

Manchester United wins

Of course, if the match is a draw, the FA Cup final would go to extra time and then penalties if required. For the Win Draw Win market though, the end of regular time (plus any injury time) represents the end of the period for the wager.
