1sr rd results 0-0-1


1st rd
Singh +190 over Tiger Push

Had a shot. Both ended -3,Mick would have handled 1st rd.
Tiger goes -3 on par 5's and par on rest.

2nd rd play
Verplank -110 over Estes @ Cascade

 

[Ian]

I cannot quite figure out why Izawa is being quoted at 40/1 - the current leader is a multiple winner in Japan and finished 4th in last years Masters - the price is an insult.

Mid-point update:

Allenby/Beem Leads by 9
Funk/Beem Leads by 5
Izawa/Sato Leads by 12
Lonard/Rose Trails by 7
Perry/Rose Trails by 3
Weir/Rose Trails by 5

Garcia 34th
Singh 8th
Price 26th

Down to just two players. Need Rose to suffer from vertigo over the weekend and Singh to stay in contention for a top-5 finish. Did look good for a Singh-Garcia double in the top-5, but then he dropped five shots in three holes. Temperament, temperament, temperament!

3rd rd plays
Both selections - 1/2 sroke @WSEX

Allenby +110 over Lowery
Singh -115 over Perry

Allenby same situation as reason to oppose Flesh but so is Lowery and Lowery has one way attitude of firing at pins which is lot tougher on weekends

 

[steved]

treble down the pan, so it is back the grindstone next week! do have Allenby though, so all is not entirely lost...

Not gonna clutter with official play as I will have to do final update in Asia late in week(I leave Sunday 3am) unless I can get Stan to do final tally for me
---but I am really liking Toms as show wager at 8/1 @ oly today.Currently setting in 8th spot. Has had 12 birds in 1st 2 rds and think conservative approach will gain on some leaders with week end pins.

Monarch I have not forgot that line you got on Price vs Duval,You Rascal:moon:

 

[Monarch]

I should have taken Love/Duval again this week DTB but my confidence was hit after the beat last week. Still, playing against Duval continues to be the strongest sports wager in the world this yr .

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

Thought about Love/Duval as I had that available but was leary of which Love would show Mr M.

2nd rd results 2-0
Singh -1/2 over Perry win
Allenby -1/2 over Lowery win

Thats it for the week.Headed to Asia in 6 hours be back Sept 3rd
Good luck to all!!!!!!!!!

Funk/Beem WON by 3
Izawa/Sato WON by 11
Lonard/Rose LOST by 6
Perry/Rose LOST by 8
Weir/Rose LOST by 8

Outrights: 0-3; -3.00 units

Garcia 58th
Singh 11th
Price 28th

Certainly underestimated Rich Beem and Justin Rose! Beem was predictably tired and it showed in his first round, but with three successive 67s, he pushed Allenby and Funk very hard. Justin Rose has been particularly impressive in his first two events on American soil; he finally looks to be fulfilling his potential. In the outrights, Vijay was always on the fringes of the top-5, but this never looked like being a profitable event.
