Well Byrd is T20 which is whereabouts I want him to be after R1...

...however I stupidly made it a double with Jamie Donaldson to finish Top 20 in Welsh Open..

..and he finished R1 T135 on +10

People should always resist ye urge to back the players ranked higher than 75 who make a decent start. 99% of the time they fall away. The cream almost always rises to the top.

Players like summerhays and stallings were no match for the others around them on the leader board. It's a mental thing but more importantly a lack of experience at the top of a leaderboard. They're used to the lack of pressure that goes with the bottom to middle of the leaderboards.

flipping fuming over adding Johnson- Byrd finished T6

why I got it into my head to make it a double- argh

Three players I've in mind for St. Jude's Top 20 is:
Westwood (good history here- but prob be poor odds on Top 20)
Levin (had him down even before his impressive performance this weekend- his odds will have been shortened due to this unfort)
Villegas (great record on the course- will prob be my main bet)
