Senden to win 280-1

72 holes
Fowler over Mick -130
Keegan over Fowler -110

These two bets look a little crazy, right?
Put it down as kind of a straddle. Like you do in the options market.

Round 1 plays (4pts):

Jim Furyk to beat Graeme McDowell -111 @ Bet365
This course is certainly long and that would lead to most people discounting Furyk's chances this week, but in terms of matchups, it is notable that he ranks above McDowell on the PGA Tour in terms of driving distance. He also has positive associations with Valhalla as it was his victory against Miguel Angel Jimenez that won the 2008 Ryder Cup for the American team (he also made the cut here back in 2000). In very good form and with a 10-3-1 record against McDowell over the last 12 months, I'll back him in this matchup.

Gary Woodland to beat J.B. Holmes -105 @ Bet365
On to two of the longest hitters on Tour. Woodland is the underdog, but he has finished ahead of Holmes in four of their last six common event and holds a 12-4-0 h2h record against him since the start of last season. Holmes did win the Wells Fargo Championship three months ago, but he has recorded just one top-20 finish since then whereas Woodland has been much more consistent and hasn't missed a single cut in his last 20 starts.

Round 2 plays (4pts):

Lee Westwood to beat Ian Poulter -120 @ Stan James
Westwood is the joint leader after rd1, but he is a good front runner going wire-to-wire on the last two occasions that he has been rd1 leader; the last time was just over three months ago. He has been a rd1 leader in a Major Championship - the 2012 Masters - and didn't fold under the pressure, finishing 3rd. So I'll back him against Poulter who has been struggling with his form until yesterday round, but still his the ball shorter off the tee, hit fewer faiways and fewer greens than Westwood.

Sergio Garcia to beat Bubba Watson -125 @ Bet365
Two players in very different form: Garcia has finished 2nd-2nd-12th-2nd in his last four starts, Watson has just one top-30 finish in his last five starts and is currently outside the top-30 again. But for putting, Garcia would have been much higher up the leaderboard and, while it is his perennial achilles heel, I expect him improve today and beat a player he has finished ahead in 10 of their last 12 common events.

Jerry Kelly to beat Tommy Fleetwood -147 @ Pinnacle [also available @ 5Dimes, The Greek and Carib]
Opposing Fleetwood who has been in very poor form for the last three months, missing five of seven missed cuts and a best finish of 33rd. Currently 93rd, making his debut in the U.S. and just his second Major Championship (he missed the cut at Hoylake last month), I can't see him playing at the weekend. Kelly has shown some good form recently and inside the top-10 after rd1. I don't see him being there at the end of the week, but I don't see him struggling like Fleetwood today.

[unofficial rd2 system plays: Fowler tb Dubuisson -140; Scott tb Rose -116]

Round 3 plays (4pts):

Billy Horschel to beat Victor Dubuisson +117 @ 5Dimes [also available @ Pinnacle, The Greek and Carib]
I'm surprised to see Horschel as the underdog in this matchup - he has been in much better form than Dubuisson recently and he has been playing better than the Frenchman so far this week - Dubuisson sits inside the top-10, but has only hit 20 of 36 greens in regulation, whereas Horschel has hit 28 so far this week.

Vijay Singh to beat Richard Sterne -105 @ 5Dimes [also available @ Pinnacle, The Greek and Carib]
Sterne is another player in poor form - since returning from injury (torn labrum), he has failed to record a top-50 in four events, so I think that he will struggle to maintain his current top-20 position. Former winner Singh should also struggle to stay in the top-20, but at least he has shown some form recently.

Nick Watney to beat Victor Dubuisson -110 @ Stan James
Opposing Dubuisson again with a player in good form - he has finished 12th and 8th in the last two weeks. Like Horschel, he has hit a lot more greens than Dubuisson this week and in this form, he could certainly remain within five shots of the lead for another round.
