    I've gone for...

    Lee Westwood £10 win only @ 14/1
    Jason Day £10 Win only @ 25/1
    Freddie Jacobson £5 e/w @ 100/1

    I want to do Rickie Fowler 1st round leader but it isn't up at the moment. I also want to do a double, Kaymer and Woods to both miss the cut, but I'll need to ring up for that.

    Does any1 know how you work the odds out for that? They are both 2/1.

    Interesting statistic:

    The 3 major winners this year, Charles Schwartzel, Rory Mcilroy & Darren Clarke are all managed by ex professional golfer Andrew "Chubby" Chandler. other golfers in his stable include Ernie Els, Louis Oosthuizen, David Howell and Lee Westwood.

    If you fancy a clean sweep i'm sure you'll get good odds on it.

    There's your winner right there! Kept improving at the weekend, and a final round of -5. That's my tip of the week @ 14/1 (on Skybet)

    If anyone is think of backing Francesco Molinari......

    DON'T!

    He's got a dodgy wrist and hasn't practised at all.

    lol

    The only thing that worries me about his game is his putting. Tee to green he is as solid as they come.

    Gone for Phil Mickelson in the US PGA, was going to bet on Lee Westwood but i felt 14/1 didnt offer much value

    Just struggled a bit this year because he's tried faffing around with his ball flight! Should do alright this week though. I'd never bet against him.

    Well with skybet Kaymer went to 45/1 before even teeing off, really don't know why.

    But my three fiddy e/w is on him.

    Was just gonna put 7 beans on the nose until he drifted again.

    I'd worry more about the kaymer side of the bet!
  • edited August 2011
    1st 2 holes he has got lucky. Both wild tee shots, 1 bounces into the middle of the fairway and the other gives him a shot at the green still. Run better.

    Evidently he isn't driving it well and its only a matter of time before he gets punished if it doesn't improve so not too worried atm

    did you get this on?

    if so great pick, never understand why kaymer would win a major get to number one in the world and then decide to change his swing.

    ian baker finch was another one, totally destroyed his game.

    anyway, my picks

    westwood 7/1
    stricker 15/2

    £5 on one and £5 free bet on the other (not this site).

    be lucky.
  • edited August 2011
    Yeah I did place it :-) ... I nearly didn't as I'd put a few bets on already, but I was bored 15 minutes before the tee-off so thought I would. Glad i did now lol £10 @ 8/1

    What's with all the nobodies at the top of the leaderboard Golfists?

    Is it variance or summat?

    Switched off a few holes from the end last night - was gutted to just see Scott at 2 under as he was 4 under with 2 to play and I don,t know if that knobhead caddie is helping or hindering him now

    When he was teeing off yesterday there seemed to be more cheers for his caddie, than Scott himself

    Looking forward to seeing Luke donald today - He,s off to a gr8 start - 2 under after 5 holes. if he can get his putter going again I think he,ll be hard to beat as last week he was peppering the pin every shot from the fairway and giving himself birdie chances although scott was putting everything in sight

    Does anyone know if you can forecasts on here ?  If you can i,ll go Scott and Donald in a reverse forecast
