Buick Invitational

[Stanley]

3rd round update: 1-1-3 and -2.60 units

Rarely get as many ties as this week, just as well yesterday's three resulted in pushes. Hensby, Sutton and Velde all tied. Lehman did beat Olazabal, but in the 3-unit play, Langer was in very impressive form and inflicted a five-shot defeat of Kendall who had dropped four shots at the start of his round. In the remaining play, Jones and Daly are now tied and if they remain so after 72 holes, then ties lose at Easybets and it's been that type of week!

4th round plays, having narrowed them down to five:

Doug Barron to beat Cameron Beckman -115 @ Five Dimes [3 units]
Chris Perry to beat Brad Faxon +110 @ Carib [3 units]
Fred Funk to beat Frank Nobilo +100 @ Sportfanatik [2 units]
Shigeki Maruyama to beat Paul Stankowski -125 @ GoTo Casino [3 units]
Shigeki Maruyama to beat Esteban Toledo -133 @ DAS [3 units]

Thanks DTB, will check it out

Final update: 3-2-0 and +3.85 units; 8-8-3 and -3.85 units for the week

Good day to close, though four wins from five did look possible for most of the round. In the end Funk fell to a one-shot defeat to Nobilo in the close play. Not so tight in the other four: Barron lost by eight, but Perry won by four and Maruyama beat both opponents by ten. In the remaining 72-hole play, Jones secured a three-shot win over Daly.

Update on outright plays: 1-2 and -0.50

The hat-trick is complete! Started the weekend with the leader in three tournaments and finish the weekend with three 2nd places

Love played the best golf of the playoff bar one shot and that was enough to lose. Lehman briefly challenged for a place finish, but ended in 13th place, while Perry finished down in 42nd place. I thought the week couldn't get more frustrating after the First Stake fiasco. How wrong I was
