    Can Rory do it or will Luke hang on........Who cares :D;) I hope they both finish around 20th cause I didn't back them :pac:

    Paul Casey @ 18/1
    If you took away the first round last week he would of won the competition. He went from last on day one to 3rd...All though the field was HUGE but still thats some going. He also has course form finishing 6th here last year. His form is very good as well over the past couple of months.

    HSBC Champions T4
    Shanghai Masters 14
    The McGladrey Classic W/D
    Frys.com Open T7
    Shinhan Donghae Open 1

    Lorenzo Gagli @ 125/1 He currently tops the GIR% stats on tour.and he also averages 293 yards off the tee which could help him because the course is huge but he would want to improve his putting. But according to his twitter he seems to be delighted to be here and he seems to be putting well with a 63 in some Italian tournament two weeks ago.


    Alexander Noren @ 66/1. 6th here in 2009 and a much improved player this time round, he won twice on tour this year, he had a long season but still I think 66/1 is to high.

    I'm going for Robert Karlsson, won it last year and is playing well. Only 2 behind westwood last week. 25s seems a big price for him.

    Might put a few euros e/w on Gregory Haveret and Richie Ramsay. Both are playing well and big prices @66s.

    Agree with Gedude on Casey so am all over the 18/1

    Main fancy is Sergio though. He's back plain and simple and is a must imo at 14/1 after a nice little siesta following his two wins.

    Having backed him last time, i will have another go with George Coetzee @ 70/1 B365.

    Although a strong field, I think its worth forgiving his no show last time out at the price.

    Sergio was very good when we last saw him so have to be onside with him.

    The way Westwood was hitting the ball last week they could all be playing for 2nd place.

    .

    i know what ur saying above but the fact is he was playing catch up so saying he would have won doesn't really make sense.

    I can't seem to pick anyone out so going to wait untill 2nd round is over.

    re Casey,i don't think he's all that comfortable with his swing,it's like under pressure he's fighting it a little.I know his form has been good but i hope for your sake he's in the mix on Sunday,i'll be keeping a close eye on him.

    Its possible but he only had a handful to beat last week thats why i had 50 euro at 7 to 2 on him,its different this week and at around 5 to1 hes a bit skinny,im not having a bet but might get involved in running.

    Looks like a very good bet as he's the form horse going into the last round.

    A couple of wayward drives from Quiros needed for an interesting day.

    Still hopeful of grabbing some place money from Sergio and Casey

    Sorry only saw this comment now...The point I was getting at, was that he was the best player from Friday onwards
