  • Registered Users Posts: 2,003 ✭✭✭mirwillbeback


    A few for fun and an interest with PP

    EW outright - Stenson 25/1

    Bezuidenhout top South African 10/1( I think this is great value )

    Benitez top left handed player 25/1

    Treble - Langasque top French 5/2, Hadwin top Canadian 4/5 and Knox top Scottish 5/4

    Double on first round only - Lowry top Irish 4/1 and Leishman top Aussie 10/3

    Good luck to all

    With Reed playing with Tiger i think that will help him the type of guy he is,
    backed westwood just now aswell, if the rough is going to be wet and sticky hitting the fairway will be key


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,078 ✭✭✭billy3sheets


    Farily wide spread of selections among the last 10 or so posters! Maybe only Fitz and Stenson cropping up in more than 1 bet?

    A reflection on it being wide open or none of us having a clue? :D

    spieth to win and harrington leader after first round:P


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Think I’ll go for the early starters getting the advantage and luckily a few of my fancies are in that section.

    As usual, will go big e/w on Rory.
    Then Eddie Pep, Xander and Adam Scott e/w.

    Adam Scott doesn’t seem to play many tournaments anymore and just concentrated on majors.

    Edit: adding RCB as first round leader.

    Also, it’s kind of stupid to bet against Koepka. Man is a machine!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,036 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    Small accum on Eddie Pep highest finishing English, Stenson highest finishing continental European and Ryan Fox highest finishing Australasian. Just to keep it interesting


  • Registered Users Posts: 37,554 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Added Koepka, everybody else I have is without big 5.
    Stone for top 40 finish at 4/1 looked too big so took that as well. He hadn't made a cut since March before finishing tied 34th at both the Irish and Scottish Opens, he won the Scottish last year and clearly loves links golf.


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,032 ✭✭✭✭Loafing Oaf


    Focusing on the specialist markets again:

    Top ROTW: Scott, Haotong, Bezuidenhout
    Top Australasian: Fox
    Top Asian: Janewattananond
    Without big boys: Leishman, Oosthuizen

    Also hoping to see Bezuidenhout and Janewattananond at the top of the leaderboard so the commentators will earn their corn:p

    I knew he'd miss the cut

    Haven't backed Rory and is +5 on the 3rd, not the best of starts (3+ Bogey opener).
    Clarke (-1) as 300/1 R1L might just place(8) if can make it to -2 or better.


  • Subscribers Posts: 41,045 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    rory gone into 4/9 to miss the but.... 13/8 to make it


    still a lot of golf to go, but winds to drop off as the afternoon progresses....


  • Registered Users Posts: 471 ✭✭PhuckHugh22


    Just did the 1 bet. Justin Thomas @33/1 loved the prep last week. Think he will be there or there abouts


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,378 ✭✭✭HighLine


    Wind dropped off now... wondering about cashing out on Lowry....

    Brooks looking good, think I'd be out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,586 ✭✭✭4068ac1elhodqr


    Wind to reduce only slightly this evening, but rainfall radar shows a reduction in shower frequency.
    Pleasent bright spell now for couple of hours as Speith starts off well, and Rahm starts in an hour.

    Rory has recovered fairly well, still a lot to do, price dipped to 40's for a short while (potential value), back now into 26.0


  • Subscribers Posts: 41,045 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    cashed out on Shane @ 4.2

    i think Speight (-3 after 7) will be going lower in slightly more beign conditions.

    taken some of that and put on speight @ 9/2 for 1st round leader


  • Subscribers Posts: 41,045 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    LOL typical !!!

    speight double bogies the 8th :D


  • Subscribers Posts: 41,045 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    Phew.... The cash out paid off, but it took a while.


  • Registered Users Posts: 37,554 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Had Lowry for frl, I'm not annoyed at losing out just annoyed that it was JB Holmes who has shown no form is is a pathetically slow player.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,036 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    Can anyone clarify whether Asia is lumped into the Australsia category for the highest-placed finisher market? Or is Asia separate field? As a geography anorak I would classify them as separate :D

    Option disappeared on my online platform and was delighted with Ryan Fox's back-nine.

    Yeah JB coming out of nowhere really, and he could do damage again tomorrow.

    I've a soft spot for him though cos I won big on him back in 2015 at the shell heuston.

    From rough memory he can turn very hot (or cold) very quickly.

    All the same, thought it was rude of Sky to have the leader sitting for hours @41(6pl). They've adjusted to match the average (34.0) in the last 15mins.

    '365 have the (yesterday's) fav up at 400/1, any takers?

    Not even at 1000....

    He might hit 66 tomorrow and still miss the cut.... But really I think his head is gone and he'll battle to a 70/71 and leave on a whimper
