The Open 2014
« on: July 15, 2014, 23:38:33 PM »
I"m not into golf betting but when it comes to the open i always seem compelled to bet on it :)

Right i"ve got fifty quid to burn, the only strategy i have is back previous winners of the open or a yank who has played well in the recent past and can hit it a long way :-[

so it is £2 win for the following on BF -
Ernie Els @110 [won it twice, class and smoothness]
Dustin Johnson @46 [he"s my whack it long wager]
Louis Oosthuizen @140 [former winner with back injury issues, gradually coming back]
Tiger Woods @25 [won here before and its TIGER]
Phil Mickelson @27 [defending champ who is untouchable when his putter is hot]
Padraig Harrington @250 [might play a blinder in a bid to make the ryder cup team with a view to trade]
Darren Clarke @450 [will the weight loss help his game, worth a punt imho with a view to trade if he cards a gr8 1st round score]

and £10 each on these 3 for a top10 finish -
Dustin Johnson @5.0
Tiger Woods @4.8
Phil Mickelson @4.2

Martin Kaymer Coral 25/1


and why not Achim, your countrymen are on a roll at the moment :)


i"ve got £6 left of my fifty to burn so three more picks were in order which i hope give me a sweat... £2 win on each

Martin Kaymer @26 [germany are on a roll, might as well go with it :)]
Matt Kuchar @46 [looks like a open improver to my eye]
Rickie Fowler @44 [been working on his swing with Harmon, might come good this week?]

May have a bet, the following jump out as value:

Jimenez @ 100 (which is a ridiculous price imo)
Els @ 100 (equally ridic)
Furyk @ 60
Mahan @ 100
Westwood @ 66

Ok, have had a bet :)

yep it looks as if anyone didn"t make at least 1 under today then it"d be tough to win it even with 3 rounds to go BUT if the wind gets up tomorrow you never know :)

i had a good sweat right till the 18th with DJ for a top10 finish, only needed a bogey or better at the last to secure that top10 finish.. He promptly whacks his tee shot out of bounds, managed to get on the green for 5 and missed his putt for a bogey...
lol lol oh that was exquisite torture for me lmao...........

Now you can hold an irrational grudge against him, like I do with Brandt Snedeker
