Round 1 play (4pts):
John Senden to beat Brandt Snedeker +100 @ Stan James
Surely Senden will be much more suited to this week's event in Malaysia than Snedeker. Both did played a Tour event last week, but the Australian should be more suited to the climate change, particularly as he is a former Tour player on the Asian PGA Tour and played on this course back in 1998 (he finished 7th), and he also played in this event last year. Snedeker has been in good form, but I can't see him succesfully transferring that form to South East Asia.

Round 2 play (2pts):
Camilo Villegas to beat Jonathan Byrd -133 @ Unibet [available generally]
Both players are tied at 2-under-par after the opening round, but it is Villegas who appears more likely to challenge for this title from this position: he has three top-10 finishes in his last four starts whereas Byrd has managed just one in his last thirteen. So it is no surprise that Byrd has finished ahead of Villegas just once (and that was by a single stroke) since the start of June.

Round 4 play (4pts):
Jason Dufner to beat Fredrik Jacobson -111 @ Bet365 [also available @ Paddy Power]
Two players moving in opposite directions in the third round. Jacobson started the day with a share of the lead with Jeff Overton but opened with a bogey and needed a couple of late birdies to get back to even for the day and three shots off the lead; Dufner had four birdies and an eagle in a 65 that saw him move up from 18th to 5th. This will be the fourth time that he has started the final round in the top-5 this year and he has played well in each of those rounds, so I can only see him maintaining his momentum for another round.
