I think I've managed to get some decent prices by choosing my picks early this week. Not all bookies have opened the market for this weeks event yet.
First pick is Charl Schwartzel. This is the third week in a row i've gone for him now. He managed to place last week, even after visiting the water hazards numerous times during his 4 rounds. He's playing really well for 90% of his rounds, so a win this week is well within his capabalities.
Second pick is Rickie Fowler, this is purely going by the stats. Tied 8th here last year + T7th last week = solid pick.
Finally, its a gut feel pick in Webb Simpson. He hasnt played much this year as of yet, but from his 4 events in 2012 he's managed 2 top 10's already. 45/1 for the World ranked 6th player is decent value.
lol we've all been there joesman. I got a tiny bit of money back with Schwartzel finishing T5. Well played Rory though! Posted by splashies
I'm afraid I can't bring myself to say 'well done' the week after I stood to win a decent bet off him, played like a fool in the final. I backed him for weeks prior to St Andrews only for him to follow his opening 64 with an 81. . Backed him at Augusta last year then left him alone for the US Open. . . Can't catch him right.

25/1(grrrr) and also going for Mahan £2e/w @33/1,did well here last year after the 1st couple of rounds and obv won the other week.gl all
3 stand out players had really good final rounds last week, so that's the reason I've gone for them this week. Something must of clicked for Woods last week and I think he has a great chance (I never normally bet on him).
Gone for Westwood this week. . . Surely his turn to bag a big one must come soon. Also can't let Fowler go after coming so close to a place last week, though it irk's that he is 16 points less this week in a stronger field.
Doing rubbish on golf this season so far so just small e/w bets this week. Charl Schwartzel Sergio Garcia Webb Simpson. Seemed very good odds Y.E. Yang as a total outside Blind pick at 150/1 Posted by ALFIE123

Was getting fed up on DYM so thought i would try my hand at HU. DOHH came along and to be fair i had a decent run of cards as well. I was surprised he played for about 12 games tho when i had the upper hand. Another night maybe a different story.

Got a bit of interest stiil for the weekend which makes a change. Scwartzel is nicely placed and just a shame about 2 late bogeys in round 2 Webb Simpson needs amother 66 today to really get in the mix. Yang will be a reet Brucey Bonus if he shoots 2 more good rounds.
As far as Sergio is concerned do you think his confidence has now gone. I guess he wants this tourney to finish and then can get back on the practice. Was tipping him for the Masters as well.
Really disapointed with Keegan's back 9. By the turn he was in 1st place which was giving him #1 spot in the FedEx cup race (and probably the money list too) and Rory being no.1 on the R2D. He 4 putted 1 green when he was leading which totally killed any confidence, from there he self imploded. Hope he comes back fighting this week. He seems like the kind of player that will, so if the odds are good I might have a little wager on him.
Joost Luiten @ 28/1 - decent run here last year T18, seems v confident (on twitter) Richard Sterne @ 60/1 - gut feel pick here, had a decent 2012 so far and is clearly a talent
PGA Tour - Transitions
Martin Laird 40/1 - T5 last year Jason Dufner 80/1 - gut feel pick again.
European Tour - Open de Andalucia Joost Luiten @ 28/1 - decent run here last year T18, seems v confident (on twitter) Richard Sterne @ 60/1 - gut feel pick here, had a decent 2012 so far and is clearly a talent PGA Tour - Transitions Martin Laird 40/1 - T5 last year Jason Dufner 80/1 - gut feel pick again.

Going for Simpson and Woodland 1st and 2nd last year and both played better last week.

But he said hes found something these last few weeks in his short game, which has been the only thing holding him back.

Aidy Boothroyd is a genius, cant wait for next season now.
Yes I'm still doing the Masters comp but i need to wait for the field to be confirmed, which will be on Sunday 1st April. I'll prob put up the thread for it a week before that though, to get the word out. But people wont be able to make their selections until the 1st April.
Should be a good day of golf today. Both events are tightly packed. Just hoping Jason Dufner can do the biz tonight after he failed to push on yeterday.
OK got to get back to winning ways now!!! PGA Tour: Luke Donald £25 e/w @ 10/1 (I won a £50 free bet in the priority freeroll) Paul Casey £3 e/w @ 80/1 European Tour: Jean-Baptiste Gonnet £3 e/w @ 40/1 Gregory Havret £4 win only @ 28/1 I did a couple of doubles as well.. Gonnet + Donald and also did Havret + Casey Posted by FlashFlush

But yeh he'll prob 3 putt every hole now, sigh
Zach Johnson £ 2.00 E/W at 45-1
Pat Perez £ 1.00 E/W at 100-1
Johnson had a decent week last week and Perez is a very good putter and been consistent so far this season and worth a top 5 finish.
