    does anybody think 110/1 odds for martin laird are huge?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 541 ✭✭✭fonda


    Are these odds to win the tournament or the whole fedex cup?

    Any idea how many places for each way? With only 30 players there can't be many.

    BTW, not being lazy, gambling sites blocked in work otherwise would check myself.

    yes,the way he drives the ball,however can't see him handling the pressure of this tourney,maybe worth a top 10 bet(if you can do it with limited field)or a match bet,if i think someone is overpriced i'll often back them to win their first round 2 or 3 ball which more than covers me for the outright,works for the likes of Overton etc,i can see Laird being up there early doors but then brickin himself later on

    I went for bubba at 54/1.

    Steve Stricker win only @ 8/1

    Zach Johnson e/w @ 25/1 (Both B365)

    Both players are models of consistency and if they can keep a bad round off their card should go very close. Pressure won't affect either player.

    that's wrong and wouldn't make any sense,if anyone in the top 5 wins this they also win the fec regardless,so realistically anyone in the top 10 or so has a great chance depending on results but the ball is in the court of the top 5 as they know if they win this it's a $10m bonus,i think the points for the top 5 are reset but i'm not bothered to check this for sure

    No only the top 5 are are guaranteed to win the fedex if they win the Tour Championship.

    Mickelson won the Tour Championship last year with Tiger runner up but as Tiger was 1st in fedex points going into the tournament and Phil was only 14th Tiger was fedex champion.

    tell me how that makes sense?you've just totally contradicted your last post which was almost exactly the same as the post i had put up,if all the points were reset how can only the top 5 be guaranteed the bonus with a win?

    I dont see any contradiction, they are reset proportionally, i said the top 5 are guaranteed the fedex title if they win the Tour Champ whereas the other 25 can still win the fedex but only depending on how other players score.
