Are Ballesteros' Boys A Brilliant Bet?

Europe are the 4/7 favourites with bookies William Hill to win the Royal Trophy in Thailand, with the Asian side offered at 15/8.

Stenson is the 10/3 favourite to be Europe's top point scorer with Lee Westwood offered at 4/1 and Darren Clarke a 9/2 shot.

"The European team is very strong and has a backbone of tried and tested Ryder Cup players and despite home advantage we would expect the Asian side to struggle," said William Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.
