Any thoughts on the golf ? Apart from "It's a good walk spoiled" !

 

I've had a little each way on Bjorn and Edfors. Mulling over backing Woods outright but find it difficult to back a 5/1 - 11/2 shot in a field of that size.

Aussie bet should give you some interest going into the final round.

 

Big guns :- Scott , Ogilvy , Appleby , Allenby

There or there abouts in recent Majors :- Nick O'Hern

Previous Open form :- Pampling , Lonard

Tournament winners in last 2 seasons :- Baddeley , Rumford

 

Decided to leave Woods alone - might back him to charge from off the pace if he gets off to an iffy start. Final pre tournament bet for me = Kenneth Ferrie to finnish top brit at 40/1

This pains me to admit it, but I agree with Norwich.

 

Jim Furyk at 33/1 is a great each way bet. Betfred are paying out on top 6 finishers.

Got a mate working around the course this week and apparently alot of the smart money has gone on Lefty Mickelsen - he's currently the best golfer in the world, has practised well and has been over for a few weeks to make sure he gives it a good go. You should get him at around 10/1.

 

I quite fancy David Howell - he's never done well in majors, but he's playing quality golf, on top of the European tour of merit and on home soil, 33/1 is a good shout for him...

Somehow managed not to spot this thread

 

So I'm not after eventing as such :D

 

But I agree Furyk is/was a great bet, still available at 20's plus on betfair and he's one shot off the lead...

The fella is a true gent. I've met him ( a bit of name dropping there ;) )

but he is known for bit of choking so don't get your hopes up on Sunday afternoon if he's still up there!

If he's still up there on Saturday evening, I'll be laying it off.

Lay lay! trust me, when it comes to golf, "I'm the man"...figuratively of course! :D

 

Rugby players legs make a good golfer do they?

Oi! They're not really. I'd just sooner not big myself like other posters do. Self-deprecation can be a good quality!

Aye, but not as good a quality as a good set of pins.

 

Anyway, handicap? besides the obvious...

Oh you are a shallow one. I know a poster you'd be well suited to! :-#

Anyway, if I said 12 would you believe me? And no, I don't look like either Michell Wei or Laura Davies. Unfortunately for me the former but luckily for me the latter! :D

Ah, in that case you're nearly "the man" when it comes to golf :D

I'd hope some may beg to differ but you carry on thinking I'm a wide shouldered dyke with hairy legs, love! :D

Well played: Mr. Furyk. =D> =D> =D>

 

He only dropped as low at 14/1 last night, so it wasn't worth laying off IMO, so I just kept the bet. :D
