Outright plays (total stake per play: 1.5pts)

Jim Furyk to win 18/1 e.w. @ Boyle Sports
He's certainly back to his former self. Maybe not the form that earned him the 2003 U.S. Open title, but he has firmly re-entrenched himself as one of the ten best players on this Tour. After a couple of top-10 finishes before the Masters, he finished 2nd in the Heritage and then was at his grinding best to wear down Sergio Garcia in the Wachovia Championship before succumbing to Vijay in the playoff. With a solid under-par-each-round performance last week and an impressive record around this short course - four top-8 finishes in last last seven visits - this looks a very good opportunity for him to complete his recovery from injury and win once again.

Kenny Perry to win 33/1 e.w. @ Victor Chandler, Paddy Power, Ladbrokes and GolfingGods
If Furyk is to win, he will have to defeat a player who has finished 2nd, 1st and 12th on this course in the last three years. On each of those occasions, he had struggled at the Byron Nelson Championship, finishing 67th, mc and 59th respectively, so there is nothing to be concerned about with his 48th place finish last week. He was very solid from tee-to-green, just struggled on the greens. He can clearly read these greens much better and having already won this year, he should feature regularly on this week's leaderboard.

Then we are in trouble as I was only waiting on place odds from the Aussie books before finalising this play ...

Further outright play (1.5pts)

Bo Van Pelt to finish in the top-five 20/1 @ SkyBet and IASbet
Good odds for a player who finished in the top-5 on this course and in three of thirty PGA Tour starts last year. His early season form was indifferent, but since the Tour moved to the Southern States it has improved significantly. He finished 7th in Houston last month, 5th in New Orleans earlier this month and was in 13th place with round to play in the Byron Nelson Championship last week. The significantly smaller-than-average field also helps the case for a top-5 finish.

a couple Texas natives this week.

Leonard top 5 IAS 10/1
Never missed cut here
70% top 15 last 10 years
50% top 5 last 4 years

Bart Bryant
top 10 at St James 8/1
A real sleeper at very generous odds this week
Hasn't played here but did win Texas Open last year.

I believe this is only 2nd wager at SJ all year.
They quit putting up matches on the Bush which was only reason I signed with them last year.

--and speaking of adapting, whats with GG paying 4 places top 5 in PGA and 5 places in Euro this week.

Assume you were referring to my post and Sportsacumen there DTB.

Finishing positions up now on their site for the PGA. It's quite a good account to have open if you are playing the spread markets as they often quote better/different prices. They dont just cut and paste someone elses markets.

They do take Neteller....just checked.

Long Hot Day at Colonial, off to see Jake Trout play tonight Downtown FW. I'll be hurtung at 5:00 in the AM. Watched a lot of Players practice today, man they grind it out, over and over. Watched Lonard putt for an hour with a device that forced you to keep it straight, he missed a lot of Putts. I don't have a Play against him, could be wrong, didn't look like he had it.

Jim Furyk WINS B of A COLONIAL+10.00

Kenny Perry OV/Shigeki Maruyama-1.25
Rod Pampling OV/Kyoung-Ju Choi-1.10
Jeff Maggert OV/Jeff Sluman-1.25
Jim Furyk OV/Sergio Garcia-1.30

Saw Kenny almost Hit Shigeki whille practicing, Watched Furyk for about 30 Min's, didn't say one word, seemed to be focused.

Good luck on your Plays
