interesting to see news reports with players suggesting that 10+ may be enough to win the tourney and the PAR 3 that is 260m long!!!!!!!

apparently the greens are like concrete.......

i dont think the next 4 days will be pretty.

tiger was asked what his fav hole was 'the 19th' was his reply!!!!!!!!!

[another grub]

good to see the pro's struggle on that course...... will remind me of scoob last Monday..... He had 13 shots on a par 4... I have never laughed so much under my breath in all my life......

Given the conditions of the course etc, plenty of value to be found in outsiders if you can jag them: I like Trevor Immelman at $67, and Brett Wetterich at $126. For something a little different, Nathan Green (generally a good beginner) to shoot the lowest first round score at $67.

Hooray for golf!!!....well after finding the US Masters winner at $44- lets prove it was no fluke

Ill be applying my usual strategy but here are my starters (amazing the odds difference on BF, some players are triple the price that you can get at normal books)

Dutchy's Stable
Luke DOnald $38-
Justin Rose $44-
Mike Weir $110-
Thomas Bjorn $390-
Niclas Fasth $430-
Justin Leonard $430-
Jeff Sluman $1000-

also Ive layed VJ Singh to make the cut @ $1.16 (risk $8-00 to win $50-)

good luck all

for example PP you can get $90- for Immelman and $390- for Wetterich on Betfair....amazing aint it?

How we looking after the first round.... OHern struggled for me.... Im out.....

What about that practice green that is part of one of the greens... hell funny when a bloke in play chipped in and it went into a PRACTICE HOLE AT THE BACK OF THE GREEN......LOL

well all of mine are no worse than 5 over which is great, so they are all still in contention...might not have any bets overnight seeing this is the case...

[mighty_tiger_79]

what score is the leader on?

[Dutchy]

what score is the leader on?

2 under, but there is only 1 other under par

[another grub]

sleep tight dutchy knowing u are going to get a run for your money....
as thewy say 'see what tommorow brings".....

michelson really strugled with his injured wrist ... I got $3.50 in a H2H with tiger..... looks like that is gone as well.....

Jim Furyk is the one to be on according to the commentators......

[Dutchy]

Dutchy's Stable
Luke DOnald $38-
Justin Rose $44- 2 shots off lead
Mike Weir $110- 6 shots off lead
Thomas Bjorn $390- m/c
Niclas Fasth $430- 2 shots off lead
Justin Leonard $430- m/c
Jeff Sluman $1000- m/c

mixed bag overnight, some of the stable had some shockers and missed the cut, however Rose and Fasth look like they will be in the mix and Weir aint too far off either...

well Ive layed Fasth (now $32-) to make an early profit, so Ive made $34- from him already and still have him to win $1200-

could do the same with Rose as he is now into $10-, but will let him ride as hes a huge show

adding -

Steve Ames $16-
Chad Campbell $65-
Jim Furyk $26-

Can Baddles hold on with Tiger stalking him..... should be a great last round.....

my only 2 bets in contention is Paul Casey..... backed him at $81 at start .....he went out to $401 after a 76 first round..... but backed that up with a 66 second round.... is 3 off the pace and into $13 now.

I backed an Aussie to win the tounament at $6.50 as well that is now into $3.10..... as much as I hate the sooky Baddles... I wouldnt mind if he held on.....

[mighty_tiger_79]

if BADDLES holds on he will be quick to thank GOD

[another grub]

me too...........$$$$$$$

[Dutchy]

alright, Ive got a couple of live ones....going to risk Badds (although wouldnt be upset to see him win) and Tiger (never won a major coming from behind in the last round) and agree with AG that Casey might be the one -

adding -

Casey $15-
Lay Tiger at $2.32

Ive layed Tiger to make a profit IF he doesnt win no matter what (the Lay will cover all my outlays on the above bets), obvious bonus will be IF one of my selections gets up....so if Tiger doesnt win I win!!

[another grub]

Poor baddles.... that first hole must have been demoralizing.....
tIGER MUST HAVE BEEN INTO $1.50 AFTER THE FIRST HOLE....

Hows the winner having a smoke after he teed off a couple of times during the last round.... great advert for the game.... WADH

Bad luck to scoob who backed Baddles at $3.25.... you can go and have a cry with him buddy!!!!!
