LPGA Corning Classic

[DOGS THAT BARK]

Will get these wagers in tonight before I get to phone modem in am as have trouble with ****** logging wagers.
All tp place @ ****** (top 5)
Gustafon 10/1
Daniels 10/1
Mathew 8/1 (maybe she will finish one off)
Kang (Soo-Yun) 30/1

Top 3 fit norm criteria the 4th is speculation as looked fora long one with the guns out of this one.
Looked hard at Becky Morgan too Clive and she looks like a live one as well as this Stupples gal,but thought "When is last time a Korean didn't finish in top 5" so opted for Kang.

Outright plays (1.5 units):

Cristie Kerr to win 25/1 e.w. @ Centrebet
Course form unimpressive, but this is still a large price for a player who has finished 2nd in two of her last four starts.

Catriona Matthew to finish in the top-four 10/1 @ Centrebet
Matthew has a habit of securing 2nd rather than 1st and has played well this year. Five Dimes now offer 7/1 for five places so will forfeit one for better odds.

Danielle Ammaccapane to finish in the top-five 13/1 @ Five Dimes
Not a regular top-5 finisher, but did finish in the top-10 on her last visit to Corning and was in the top-10 last week as well.


1st round plays (1.5 units):

Lorie Kane to beat Michele Redman -115 @ Five Dimes
Natalie Gulbis to beat Beth Bauer -122 @ Five Dimes
Beth Daniel to beat Dottie Pepper -130 @ Five Dimes

Was rather insulted that Centrebet didn't trim Kerr when I backed her on Tuesday! 25 certainly too big, she must win soon. Difficult to get away from the likes of Jones and Diaz as this a real horses for courses event....but

Have gone for :

PML 14/1 Hills...Ladbrokes go 8/1! Amazing progress this year

My Hun Kim 20/1...problems with clubs, new manufacturer doesn't have base in US and also don't make an 11 wood! So why did she change?? Anyway, seems to have got over that and posted a couple of top tens...an infrequent visitor on the past, but has always been competitive when she has

Becky Morgan 150/1 ..could be the next Euro to break through...as accurate as can be and a good putter

and have to go for the fairytale!

Tammie Green 150/1 - former champ, also finished 2nd & 3rd...still not fully regainded her form after giving birth...but if she does, this is the place..

OUTRIGHTS:

Cristie Kerr(21/1) for 0.50* e.w. @ 5 dimes
A wager seems necessary and appropriate for this week.

Jones/Kane LOST by 5
Doolan/Gulbis LOST by 1

Mid-point update:

Kerr 19th
Matthew 1st
Ammaccapane 14th

Ugly situation with the 18-hole plays, so just as well all three outrights are in contention. We'll see if Matthew can finally hold on to a tournament lead.

Soo-Yun Kang to beat Helen Alfredsson -110 @ Five Dimes
Beth Daniel to beat Natalie Gulbis -120 @ Five Dimes
Cristie Kerr to beat Michele Redman -140 @ Five Dimes

Final update:

18-holes: 6-5-0; -1.95 units

Outrights: 1-2; +12.00 units

Kerr 15th
Matthew 3rd
Ammaccapane 15th

Matthew made us sweat as usual, but came through for the top-four finish without the win again. Kerr and Ammaccapane, in particular, could have added to the total, but still a very profitable event. Finally bring the 2003 LPGA Tour season into profit!

Nice week DTB :clap:

Pity Kang didn't quite make the hat-trick
