    I cleaned up with Colsaerts last year with his ridiculously high odds. Any similar golfers to do this with this year?

    Gave up the each way betting after the 2011 US Open that McIlroy won. Had a fiver each way on Robert Garrigus at 80/1. He came third after a great putt on the 18th/72nd. Thought I was quids in but the bookies watered down the odds massively because there were five or six guys tied third with him. In the end, I got about seven or eight quid back. Total joke and haven't bet each way since.

    To answer your question though, and without looking at any of the stats which would probably be much more helpful to you, I'd say the likes of Peter Hanson, Grace, Castano, Thorbjorn Olesen might be worth keeping an eye on.

    When that conceivably the entire field could finish tied for 2nd or 3rd, do you not think bookies are entitled to limit their liability in place betting?

    Either way, they'll be delighted at you taking this stance. Golf odds are determined by the e/w price. You're basically getting skinnier odds on outrights as a result. But to be honest anyone betting straight singles in any field of 100+ options, should not be allowed to gamble, as they're obviously mad upstairs.
