Dubai Desert Classic

[Stanley]

Round 3 play (2pts):

Stephen Gallacher to beat Anders Hansen +110 @ 5Dimes
Good price to back a player in good form - Gallacher has finished 31st, 4th, and 12th in the last three weeks - and to oppose a player who is paired with Tiger Woods. The last time Hansen was paired with Woods - 2008 CA Championship - he shot with 73 and with Tiger's current momentum, he could be a very difficult player to be partnered with.

[unofficial rd3 system plays: Andersson Hed tb Martin -111; Webster tb Rumford -111]

Round 4 play (2pts):

Anders Hansen to beat Thomas Aiken -105 @ Pinnacle [available generally]
Impressive performance by Hansen to shoot under-par in the windy conditions and so now share the lead with Aiken and Rory McIlroy. This is a familiar position for the Dane - he shared the lead after 54 holes of this event five years and was paired with Tiger Woods in the final round. He still shot 71 and only missed out by two shots. This is not such a familiar position for Aiken. He has held the lead after 54 holes of a 72-hole event just four times and each one was in South Africa. Yet each time he failed to shoot better than 70 and each time he failed to hold onto the lead. Against this field and playing for so much money, that relative inexperience should make this a much harder task for Aiken.
