    Abu Dhabi - head says Kaymer but I'm going for Garcia @ 22/1 in the hope he's been practising his putting in the off season
    Also going a a couple e/w on Elson @ 150/1
    PP paying 6 places

    Farmers - e/w-ers on Garrigus @ 60/1, De Jong@ 60/1 and Stanley@ 80/1

    Best of luck y'all

    my local Ladbrokes in Greystones pay 6 places all comps with full(ish) fields, just in case you happen to live nearby

    I couldn't pick one in Abu Dhabi,thought the prices were a joke.
    In the U.S i fancy Brendan Steele @100/1,played ok here last year coming off 2 missed cuts,he's a West coast lad,has a win under his belt now so i expect an improvement.Also backed top 20 finish at 9/2.A few likely ones also,
    Marco dawson @300/1
    Bill Lunde @200/1
    All 6 places e/w

    Late addition Stanley@80/1

    Nice late addition hb, here's hoping he can keep it up on the tougher South Course


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,706 ✭✭✭premierstone


    Have topped up on Snedeker, he played the tougher course, south, and is -5 which is on my rough calculations is equa; to if not slightly better than the -9 Bill Haas carded on the North, I would have them two as the market leaders with slight preference to Snedeker, and the 8/1 on Betfair is definitley too big.

    If there is one thing to follow from my bets at any point folks, it's that when I bet on Kaymer. He'll implode, 100%! :rolleyes::p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,683 ✭✭✭heavyballs


    i presume Stanley will be unable to get himself up off the ground to win this now,after backing him @80/1 from the start i'm so sick i can't tell ya

    I woke up this morning hoping what I'd witnessed was a nightmare. Alas he did have an 8 on the last and the rest is history :confused:

    Well done though PS, nothing like an unexpected win perk up your Monday.

    Had my winnings spent Saturday night :eek::(:mad:

    Man, some finish to that tournament. Stanley must be gutted. When I went to bed he'd a four shot lead at the start of the 18th. Woke up hoping for a 2nd and 3rd. Delighted with the 1st and 3rd.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭abouttobebanned


    He had a 3 shot lead at the 18th.

    He'll get over it.

    John Rollins needs to sort out his putting, he's absolutely terrible.
