Well, none of my selections are any chance so I'll be riding Barnes for ya tonight WH, good luck mate!!!!

[overloaded]

good luck but they have not even started the 3rd round yet. I wouldnt get excited till the back 9 in the 4th round.

when will it finish? will they get 2 rounds in 1 day tommorow?

Yeah your right its way to early to claim a winner especially Barnes he is just as likely to shoot a couple of high 80's and finish at the back.

The talk is that they will just try and play as much golf as possible today and take it as it comes.
because the players will have played so much golf over the last 2 days i wouldn't be surprised if today they just completed everyones 3rd round and then started the final round fresh tomorrow.

This will also solve the problem there having with disgruntled fans who had purchased tickets on the first day and only got to see 3 hours of action. The fans want 100% refund where as the pga will only give 50% back or free entry to Mondays action if there is any.
I think the PGA are very reluctant to give refunds, so a full final round on the monday would mean no refunds and much easier option for the pga.

seems the obvious thing to do

whufc, if you have funds/access to Betfair then you could lay Barnes @ $14.5 for a guaranteed nice little profit.

not worth it

i don't have betfair only can bet through sportsbet with cash.

Could someone please explain what laying off is, just in case the situation arises where i can guareentee a profit.

[overloaded]

you can back Barnes to lose by laying him on betfair. Its a $5 bet and not worth doing that for your situation.

Big punters look at it when they are betting big amounts. depends if they have any balls?

this may be really dumb question but why is it not worth doing if i can guarentee profit.

[whufc]

play will not be starting at least another 4 hours due to the weather according to the pga website. It also said that it guarentees the tournament will not be finshed until at least Monday.

[Dutchy]

Good luck WHUFC, esp with Barnes, he is $14 on BF so you could lay off for a nice profit if you wished

I just put some interest bets on Westwood @ $16.5 and Garcia @ $34

[whufc]

play has resumed at the open finally.

Hunter Mahon has picked up 3 shots in his first three holes to go -3 and be in equal 7th spot.

[mighty_tiger_79]

just heard via bbc that barnes is 6 shots in front

Never had a lay off bet before...does this mean that Barnes is $14 not to win the tourney?

[another grub]

Start of round 4

Barnes -8
Glover -7
Duval -3
Fisher -3
Mickelson -2
Wier -2

BETFAIR.....
Ricky Barnes 4.1
Lucas Glover 3.65
Phil Mickelson 8
Ross Fisher 12
Mike Weir 20
David Duval 21



whufc.....$5000 collect if Barnes wins as stands currently......... I wouild give up $1000 profit to lay him at $4 on BF...... then you either make $250 when he loses or $4,000 if he wins......

[Q.]

The only downside is he needs to find a spare $1000 to deposit in his betfair account.

[Johno6]

I will be rooting for barnes 110% the last round for whufc.... come on barnsey!!

[dodgingandweaving]

Hopefully there's not too much play left for the day, Barnesy needs to regroup after a couple of terrible swings and decisions on the 1st and 2nd.

[Johno6]

i wouldnt mind duval at 21 as a bit of a roughie
can u go top 3 finish? what are the odds if so

[Dutchy]

If the bet was Placed at BF in the first place you dont need the $$$ in your account they just reduce your potential winnings with any lay, unfortuantely this bet wasnt at BF so you are right.

The other way would be to bet on the main challengers today to spread the risk and lock in an almost certain profit.
