Outright plays (total stake per play: 1.5pts)
Peter O'Malley to win 12/1 e.w. @ SkyBet
Not exactly a proven winner, but O'Malley has won on this course - the 2002 Clearwater Classic - and he followed that with 6th on his only subsequent visit. So with a top-5 finish in the New Zealand Open and a top-10 finish in the Jacob's Creek Open this month, there is good reason to expect O'Malley to be a contender yet again.
Ryan Armour to win 66/1 e.w. @ SkyBet
Was tempted by Tidland, but far better odds on Armour and a better course history as well. Armour was 3rd after 36 holes last year and although he had a difficult weekend, it does show that he can master this course. He did just that at Royal Adelaide last week when just one round of 75 on Friday was the difference between winning and finishing 2nd, but he can certainly make amends for that and last year's lost opportunity this time around.
Joel Kribel to win 100/1 e.w. @ GolfingGods
Huge price and didn't last, hence this play was posted early. Currently on a major medical extension having played the second half of last year injured - his rookie season on the PGA Tour - his only start this year has been in the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am where he finished 11th. An extremely impressive result for this field and his course history is not bad either. He was leading after the first and second rounds of the 2002 Clearwater Classic and went head-to-head with Peter O'Malley over the weekend, faltering only in the final round when he dropped to 5th. In good form and with good course history, he should never have been 100/1.
