Turkish Airlines Open

Round 1 play (2pts):

Lee Westwood to beat Nicolas Colsaerts +110 @ SkyBet
I'll take these odds to oppose Colsaerts on this course. It isn't a long course and the keys to success last year were the short game and that is an area in which Colsaerts struggles, as he did last year when finishing 50th. A small play on Westwood who has shown better form of late, but this is largely a play against the Belgian.

[unofficial rd1 system plays: Blixt tb Lowry -111; Westwood tb Luiten -111]

Round 4 play (2pts):

Darren Fichardt to beat Chris Doak -110 @ 5Dimes
Last month Doak was outside the mark for retaining his Tour Card for next season, but a 5th place finish in his home country in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship secured his playing rights for next season. However, that has been the only top-30 finish in the last five months, spanning 13 events. Now he has a chance to secure a place in next week's DP World Tour Championship, but he will have to shoot low tomorrow to improve enough on his current 19th place position on the leaderboard. The points system is very heavily skewed in the Tour Finals, so Doak could make it to the Tour Championship even though he has just one top-10 all season and missed 15 of 26 cuts. He will need to shoot a low score tomorrow though and such an attacking ploy is normally a recipe for a high score. Fichardt has been the much better player this season and should be able to qualify for next week's finale if he merely keeps his current place on the leaderboard. That should give him the advantage tomorrow.
