Round 1 play (4pts):
Damien McGrane to beat John Parry -105 @ Bet365
Two players in good form - Parry finished in the top-30 in seven consecutive events before he missed the cut at Valderrama, whereas McGrane finished 2nd in that event - but with a marked difference in their form when in Asia. Parry has competed in seven events in this region with one top-20 finish and a first round scoring average of 72.57; McGrane has competed in 32 events in Asia, averages 70.91 in the first round and was a winner of the 2008 China Open. He should be the favourite in this first round matchup.
[unofficial rd1 system plays: Jimenez tb Manassero -138; Kjeldsen tb Manassero -110; Mickelson tb Manassero -167]
