Outright plays:

Hale Irwin to win 7/1 @ Centrebet
Have three of the last four winners of this event as selections this week. Irwin is win-only, but he has had a great season so far. He won the Senior Skins by a record margin and the ACE Group Classic and he has finished 2nd in both starts since that win, but on both occasions he was only one shot out of a playoff. A winner in 1998, I don't see any reason why he should not repeat the feat.

Allen Doyle to win 20/1 e.w. @ Centrebet
Not quite a continuation of last year's incredible consistency in securing top-10 finishes, but he has still secured three from five starts. Basically a selection because of his course form: a winner in 2000 and top-3 in 1999 and last year when a selection. HE should make it four top-10s from six.

Gary McCord to win 20/1 e.w. @ Centrebet
Has become a consistent choice since the last few months of last season. Still can't break through and win for the first time since 1999, and hence the double-figure price, but has become as consistent a player as Doyle was for the whole of last season. A winner three years ago on this course.

Irwin is now available at Five Dimes @ 7/1

54-hole play (1 unit unless stated):

Doug Tewell to beat Bob Gilder -115 @ Bet365
Five starts, five top-20 finishes and a win at the Verizon Classic. An impressive start to the season from Tewell and while last year's surprise Rookie of the Year is fully capable of winning this event, I have to side with a player who ranks 1st on Tour in driving accuracy and 2nd in greens in regulation.

Very late with these, but only Mccord has teed off and he's done nothing on the first!

McCord 25 at Sean Graham seemed very generous earlier in the week.

They also laid Doug Tewell at 33, and Allen Doyle at 20.

A little conservative, maybe, but fingers crossed.
