Darren Clarke to win 18/1 e.w. @ GolfingGods
Apart the Players Championship when a final round 79 saw him finish 63rd, last week's 17th place finish was his worst finish of the year. But when you can finish 17th and it be a considerably below-par performance, there is clearly a lot that is good with Clarke's game this year. Okay, he should have won the MCI Heritage, particularly as was a selection, but away from the goldfish bowl of the PGA Tour, he looks a far better prospect to win and particularly on a course close to his home and where he has finished in the top-15 in each of the last six years.
Angel Cabrera to win 28/1 e.w. @ BetInternet and Paddy Power
After a run of poor form in the United States, his return to Europe has signalled a marked improvement and that was very evident last week when he finished 3rd to just miss out on the playoff. But again long off the tee and ranked 4th in greens in regulation around Carton House, he looks in good form to profit from the Wentworth setup. He has done so in the past, finishing 2nd last year and in 2001. In fact, in the last four years, Cabrera has won one event and finished 2nd four times in England so if Clarke looks a decent bet to win, the 'Duck' looks a decent bet to finish 2nd!
